I guess the extra features fulfills the plus part of Vista+. I understand the desire for targeted features and size reduction though. Now, with a known working configuration we can certainly remove features. That part will be easy. I can start with the items you listed for a future build. The libfdk-aac external functionality is included for parity with the XP version and of course the dll is not required to run the FFmpeg binaries. This functionality can also be removed if desired.

I tested the soon to be merged PR #14157 and it is already working. On Windows 7 Deno can't be used, but there is a Node.js fork that can do the same job. I used node-v20.19.2-win-x86.zip and extracted it to `C:\Bin\node` (add this to the PATH). Then compiled yt-dlp_x86 for Windows 7 from: https://github.com/Grub4K/yt-dlp/tree/feat/jsc-deno Added to the config file: --remote-components ejs:github --js-runtimes node --remote-components ejs:npm yt-dlp -F URL now gives lots of formats: [debug] Command-line config: ['-v', '-F', 'https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4XofX6d-z-w'] [debug] User config "C:\Users\Nico\AppData\Roaming\yt-dlp\config.txt": ['--rm-cache-dir', '--console-title', '-o', '~/Desktop/%(title)s.%(ext)s', '--remote-components', 'ejs:github', '--js-runtimes', 'node', '--remote-components', 'ejs:npm', '--embed-thumbnail', '--add-metadata', '--convert-thumbnails', 'jpg', '--ppa', 'ffmpeg:-metadata synopsis=""', '--force-ipv4', '--sponsorblock-remove', 'all'] [debug] Encodings: locale cp1252, fs utf-8, pref cp1252, out cp1252 (No ANSI), error cp1252 (No ANSI), screen cp1252 (No ANSI) [debug] yt-dlp version local@2025.10.26 [a36fa2e26] (win_x86_exe) [debug] Python 3.14.0 (CPython AMD64 32bit) - Windows-10-10.0.19044-SP0 (OpenSSL 3.0.18 30 Sep 2025) [debug] exe versions: ffmpeg git-2025-10-19-dc39a57-ffmpeg-windows-build-helpers (fdk,setts), ffprobe git-2025-10-19-dc39a57-ffmpeg-windows-build-helpers [debug] Optional libraries: Cryptodome-3.23.0, brotli-1.1.0, certifi-2025.10.05, mutagen-1.47.0, requests-2.32.5, sqlite3-3.50.4, urllib3-2.5.0, websockets-15.0.1 [debug] JS runtimes: node-20.19.2 [debug] Proxy map: {} [debug] Request Handlers: urllib, requests, websockets [debug] Plugin directories: none [debug] Loaded 1839 extractors Removing cache dir C:\Users\Nico/.cache\yt-dlp ...

Some additional details : --enable-cuda --enable-cuvid --enable-nvenc --enable-nvdec I only have an Intel iGPU which H/W decodes MPEG-2 only, no external NVIDIA gfx card either, so I couldn't possibly use those inside FFmpeg ... --enable-mediafoundation Despite Vista SP2+Platform Update Supplement (PUS) having a working form of WMF, backported from Win7 and installed as a MS Update, I've found, via using other FFmpeg builds with that flag enabled, that I can't use the WMF encoders (h264/aac) in FFmpeg for transcoding purposes; probably this specific flag requires a Win7+ OS, where the WMF feature is fully matured ... --enable-d3d12va --enable-vulkan AFAIK, these both are not compatible with/offered on Vista SP2... --enable-libvpx --enable-libkvazaar --enable-libxavs --enable-libdav1d --enable-libaom --enable-librav1e I don't see myself using the encoder part of those video codecs on this specific, under-resourced, "vintage" 32-bit machine ; however, if the decoder part of any of them can't be substituted with a native FFmpeg implementation, then, I guess, it should stay (?) ... --enable-libmysofa Well. in RL scenarios I haven't had the need myself to use SOFA files with HRTF content, however, since this is related to acoustics (audio) and assuming it doesn't add much to binary filesize, I guess it can stay enabled/included after all ... Please, keep it enabled ; the native AAC encoder isn't fully, yet, on par with the Fraunhofer one (and, correct me if wrong, doesn't allow for HE-AACv1/v2 transcoding profiles); BTW, below: https://forum.videohelp.com/threads/414767-ffmpeg-7-0-1-and-Windows-7/page2#post2771491 I'm seeing archive "libfdk-aac-v2.0.3-158-gd8e6b1a-x86.7z" intended for Win7SP1_x86; this one affords a DLL much larger (2.10 MiB) than the DLL extracted from archive "libfdk-aac-2.0.3-158-d8e6b1a-win32-xpmod-P4.7z" (1.33 MiB) ; I've probed the former with DepWalker and it appears to be Vista-compatible, though I haven't yet used it in an audio transcoding job... In closing, I'm not the sole Vista user around here and if your Vista-compat FFmpeg offerings are to benefit a broader Vista+ community, then you can still include any external lib you see fit - I initially only requested a shared_x86 compile, my wish has been granted and I'm extremely grateful to you ! Kindest regards .

There are at least two dozen reports of this web site not working in New Moon, dating back to at least a year and a half ago.

Takes ages for them to fix uncommon codecs like gapless playback in audio files, E-AC-3 glitch. If it was a project focused on one codec the maintainer would work on it or declare it abandoned. When you transcode you have to explicitly supply an output bit depth. And of course the sheer size that you don't need for audio transcoding (expected about 200-500K). Since they don't fix bugs (that I care about), and I don't need the new video codecs, old ffmpeg 7 works just fine for me.

Thanks!

Use -h to get full help or, even better, run 'man ffmpeg' Some remarks: 1. The extracted .7z archive yields a folder sized 125 MiB, i.e. ca. 100 MiB less compared to using both static FFmpeg.exe+FFprobe.exe binaries ... 2. --enable-libfdk-aac : I take it this means I can still use the "libfdk-aac-2.dll" file from inside the "libfdk-aac-2.0.3-158-d8e6b1a-win32-xpmod-P4.7z" archive to enable that (non-free) audio encoder? 3. This is just an observation, but this build configuration still contains a lot of flags/libs either not applicable to my platform (e.g. --enable-d3d12va) or ones I'd never use myself: --enable-cuda --enable-cuvid --enable-d3d12va --enable-nvenc --enable-nvdec --enable-mediafoundation --enable-libvpx --enable-libdav1d --enable-libaom --enable-libmysofa --enable-librav1e --enable-libkvazaar --enable-libxavs --enable-vulkan But I see what you did there ; this is not tailored specifically to an old Vista SP2 32-bit machine with iGPU (Intel), but is a full-fledged compile (full set of libs/filters/etc.), with minimum OS requirement lowered to NT 6.0; all those extra libs can still be used efficiently on a more recent WinOS, with more powerful H/W ... 4. N-121515-gdefd5f3f64 : For those who prefer a slightly different git-versioning scheme, this is equal to n8.1-dev-891-git-2025-10-25-gdefd5f3 i.e. built from a master branch code snapshot (commit defd5f3) authored today, which is the 891st commit after tag "n8.1-dev" was cut ... Really impressive, am much obliged! The retrocomputing communities are in high need of altruistic persons such as yourself! Take the best of care...

Yes WS addressed that and the court case being dismissed. I have searched the WS Reddit page but all that has been pushed further back with newer questions and replies. From memory it was the fault of the company supplying the server. They were in the process at the time of changing servers over to a 'no logs' policy. Then the court case was thrown out this year. They have been growing in the last ten years, people seem to like the company. They still do offer 10 GB free every month on the free plan. That's why I signed up 5 years ago ... at the time they had a nice Win XP app which went away about 1 1/2 years later but people already signed up could still use Win XP for the 'free' or 'pro' service. https://old.reddit.com/r/Windscribe/ For newer computers you might want to check them out. Then I just came across another company that also offers free 10 GBs every month also but they have nothing for Win XP that I can find, but it may be of value for newer computers or phones. https://privadovpn.com/ Download Free VPN App for Windows Get 10GB of data for free every 30 days No payment details required, no strings attached, and no hoops to jump through PrivadoVPN is committed to protecting your privacy for free Is PrivadoVPN a no log VPN? Yes, we ensure that we never log browsing history, traffic destination, data content, IP addresses, or DNS queries. We encrypt all data over our VPN connections, and we do not inspect or record the contents of what you are viewing, browsing, or doing through the PrivadoVPN connections. Free VPN (10GB/month) | Unlimited Devices - PrivadoVPN https://privadovpn.com/freevpn/ So that may be another option for some people. I still like the Japan VPN that I mentioned in my first post. It sets up everything very easy and Win XP works very good plus in 2025 support for people still using Windows 98 SE can be a plus. Most of the servers are located in Japan but there are others scattered around other locations ... but most seem to be in Asia. ...
