Installing and Updating MVE
Notice: MVE with all the dependencies will take around 10GB of drive space, so make sure you have enough space available.
- download Windows version 0.8.1.1 or Linux version 0.8.1.1
- extract using your favourite archiver (ie 7-Zip)
Note: please make sure there's no spaces in the path when you extract MVE from the zip archive, as a space in the path can cause issues with some of the functionality
To see all available versions, join MVE discord and visit #mve-releases channel
On Windows, simply double click Machine Video Editor.exe
On Linux, go to Terminal, navigate to the directory you extracted to, and use ./machine-video-editor
When you first run MVE you will be asked to install needed dependencies
Either click "Yes" now, or at a later time go to Help > Install Dependencies
You will be presented with a window that has Install, Update, Remove, and Close options.
Clicking Install will start the process of installing needed dependencies for you.
You will know everything is done once you get a message that a conda environment was set up:
and at that time you can click Close
At this time, you should probably show your MVE where your DFL is installed.
To do that, go to File > Settings and under "DFL build folder" use your explorer / window manager to point to the correct directory.
Congratulations, you are now ready to use MVE! :)
If you already have MVE installed and configured, with all dependencies installed, you can simplify the process of updating to the new version by using the Update feature:
- download the latest release, found on MVE discord in
#mve-releaseschannel, as a*.zipfile - start your already installed MVE and go to
Help > Update - guide your file manager to the correct zip file and click Update, as seen in the picture below:
