What is winnydows.com?
winnydows.com is the official home of XviD4PSP, a portable video and audio conversion program for macOS, Windows, and Linux. If you are looking for the download page, version history, tutorials, or system requirements for XviD4PSP, this is the source to use. The site is not a general media blog or a hosted conversion service — it exists to distribute and document this one application.
What the site actually offers
The homepage is organized around a few practical sections:
- About — a short description of the program and its current release.
- Downloads — direct links to multiple versions, from the current 8.2.12 back to 7.0.502.
- Screenshots — interface previews.
- Tutorials — usage guidance.
- FAQ — common questions.
- Community links — a Telegram channel and chat, plus a VKontakte club.
There is also a Russian-language version of the site.
What XviD4PSP is
XviD4PSP is described as a program for "convenient and high-quality video and audio conversion." Key characteristics stated on the site:
- It is a completely new version of the software (the 8.x line).
- It does not depend on system codecs or any system components — everything needed is bundled inside.
- It does not require installation — it runs as a portable application.
- It works independently of versions 5/6/7/8.0/8.1, so older and newer builds can coexist.
The import format list is broad: AVI, DIVX, ASF, MPG, MPEG, VOB, TS, MOV, MKV, OGM, WMV, FLV, RM/RMVB, and more — the site summarizes this as "almost any input format." Export formats listed include AC3, AAC, MP3, MP2, and MP4.
Current version and recent changes
The latest release listed is XviD4PSP 8.2.12. Changes noted for this version include:
- Updated codecs: SVT-AV1 4.2.0 and x265 4.3.
- x264, x265, and SVT-AV1 now display their version in the codec parameters window.
- Improved decoding of corrupted video fragments (higher threshold for consecutive corrupted frames, added recovery methods).
- Fixes for CUE file opening errors.
- Fixed a potential startup crash on Windows 7 when polling OpenCL devices.
- Reduced crash probability when switching tasks on the Metadata tab, during audio scanning, and when switching tasks on a NAS source.
- Fixed freezing on some MKV files when rewinding to audio or subtitles.
- Corrected crash probability when determining subtitle bitrate during encoding.
System requirements by version
Requirements differ depending on which version you download, so check this before choosing a build:
| Version | macOS | Windows | Linux |
|---|---|---|---|
| 8.2 | 10.15+ | 7/10/11 | Ubuntu 22.04+, Mint 21+, Debian 12+, Fedora 36+, CentOS Stream 9+, Arch |
| 8.1 | 10.15+ | 10/11 | Ubuntu 20.04 / Mint 21.1 |
| 8.0 | 10.9+ | Vista/7/8/10/11 | Ubuntu 20.04 |
| 7.0 | 10.9+ | XP/Vista/7/8/10/11 | Ubuntu 20.04 |
If you are on an older operating system, the version table is the deciding factor — newer builds drop support for older Windows and macOS releases.
