FastFlix 6.3.2 for Mac
Mac UtilitiesFastFlix is a free open source app by Chris Griffith that gives video encoding a simple visual face. Under the surface it uses FFmpeg, the powerful media engine that normally needs long typed commands. With FastFlix you pick a video, choose an encoder and quality settings from clear menus, and start the job. It is popular with home media fans who shrink large recordings, keep HDR picture data during conversion, and prepare files for phones, TVs and media servers without learning command syntax.
Key Features
- Friendly graphical interface built on top of FFmpeg
- Software encoders including x264, x265 and AV1 options
- Keeps HDR10 metadata for supported encoders such as x265
- Support for Dolby Vision metadata copying on supported setups
- Queue and profile tools for repeat encoding jobs
- Free and open source, available for Mac, Windows and Linux

Frequently Asked Questions
Is FastFlix free? Yes. FastFlix is free and open source software, and so is the FFmpeg engine it works with.
Do I need FFmpeg installed? Yes. FastFlix is an interface for FFmpeg, so FFmpeg version 4.3 or greater is required for most tasks.
