If you have an old filter which you need to recompile, you may need to use this older filter SDK:ĭownload filter SDK 1.05 (filtsdk-1.05. Click the Effects button on the Home tab, and from the effects drop-menu at the top, select Load/Unload VirtualDub Plugins. The Plugin SDK supercedes the old Filter SDK, which only covered older versions of the 32-bit video filter API, and doesn't cover 64-bit video filters or input plugins. VirtualDub 1.4.12 or newer (VirtualDub 1.8.8+ recommended).ĭownload Plugin SDK 1.1 (VDPluginSDK-1.1.zip) Download Plugin SDK 1.0 (VDPluginSDK-1.0.zip).Other C++ compilers may be usable but are not supported. I believe there is a quicktime plugin for virtualdub, although I would repackage the video and audio into an MP4 container, then use a simple avisynth script to allow vdub to work with the file. Visual C++ 6.0 Service Pack 5 Professional or Visual Studio 2005 are recommended Express editions, including Visual C++ Express 20 may be used. Microsoft Visual C/C++ 6.0 or newer, any edition.You can also create modules that include input drivers, which enable VirtualDub to read new video and audio file formats. The basic interface is simple to work with: VirtualDub gives you a 32-bit ARGB bitmap to modify. You can sample some of these at the third-party filters page these range from corrective filters, such as noise reducers, to synthesis filters, such as the subtitler. The filters that are built into VirtualDub use the same interface that is exported to DLLs, so you can write filters similar to or better than the included ones. Plugin SDK VirtualDub has the capability to load third-party DLLs that include their own video filters.
