Install instructions

Cheetah Video Proxy Generator is using ffmpeg to do the transcoding.

This program needs to be installed separately.

There are many tutorials to install ffmpeg

For Windows users:

If you are not afraid of the command line, my favorite way is to install scoop by typing in Windows PowerShell:

Set-ExecutionPolicy -ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned -Scope CurrentUser

then:

Invoke-RestMethod -Uri https://get.scoop.sh | Invoke-Expression

and now that scoop is installed type:

scoop install ffmpeg

For MacOS users:

install Homebrew by typing this in any terminal application:

/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"

and now that Homebrew is installed type:

brew install ffmpeg
