Virtualdub

This is the current release of VirtualDub for end users, containing the executable and supporting files. Unzip the contents into a new folder and run VirtualDub.exe. (Do not run it directly from the zip file!)

Requirements: Microsoft Windows 98, ME, NT4, 2000, XP, Vista, Server, or newer; 80486 or higher CPU; 16MB of memory. This version will run on both x86 (32-bit) and x64 (64-bit) versions of Windows. Sorry, but there is no native version for Mac OS X or Linux.

Antivirus software issue: Some versions of McAfee Antivirus have a bug where they report a Dialer-182 spyware infection after running VirtualDub 1.8.x. This is a false alarm caused by an exceptionally poor Registry key matching pattern in McAfee (anything in Software\Freeware) which misdetects VirtualDub's stored settings as from a dialer. VirtualDub does not have any malicious code or any dialer logic. Unfortunately, I cannot force McAfee to fix their software. If you are having problems with this, you may need to use 1.9.1+, which has the settings Registry key changed to work around this problem.

This is the executable package for the newest, experimental version of VirtualDub. Use this version if you don't mind hitting a new bug once in a while and want to try out the cutting edge version. Check the changelog for details.

You only need this one file if all you want to do is run VirtualDub. Unzip and start virtualdub.exe -- requires Windows 98+ or NT4.0+, 80486 or higher CPU, and 16MB of memory. (Note: Extract the full contents to a directory. Don't run it directly from the zip file.)
