General
Yes,
simply download Influx here without registering a license and you will get our free trial, which includes the first 3 minutes of all footages as well as the first 10 seconds of every minute, to let you see more of your footage for free. In After Effects it's only the first minute and not first 3 minutes. You do not need to buy any license of Influx to unlock any feature or test if a bug is fixed with a license, you should be able to test what you need in Influx before purchasing a license !
On Windows you should run your cmd.exe or Powershell in Administrator Mode, then run Influx installer executable with the
/S
argument, for example in Powershell :
./"Influx v1.2.4 Installer.exe" /S
if you're in the extracted folder from the downloaded zip. Same goes for the uninstaller but you'll also need to specify the
-Uninstall_Influx
argument.
If you want to be sure that the installer / uninstaller exit automatically without user confirmation you should run the .exe like this instead
start "Autokroma" /wait /b "PathToInstallerOrUninstaller.exe" /S
If you also need a command line installer for macOS, please
contact us and tell us !
Our installers are not viruses, but some AntiVirus software (Windows Defender, Norton AV, McAfee, Bitlocker etc.) sometimes produce false positive because of their probabilistic detection algorithms and the fact that we're using a very common library to create our installers. We regularly check our installers with VirusTotal.com too and there are never more than 1 or 2 AV producing a false positive. If that happens to you, please report this as a false positive to your AV software vendor ! You can disable the AV for the installation process, then re-enable it.
Import
If Adobe is able to import one stream but not the other (example AV1 incompatible video stream and AAC compatible audio stream), it will import it on its own without calling Influx, possibly rejecting the file (or for example only showing an audio track) ! This is an Adobe bug that we can't get around for now. Solution is to suffix your file with .influx extension to force Influx import. Another solution is to use the "Overload Adobe" option in the Settings.
