nQivi Studio Desktop Client runs locally to ensure your data stays private and utilizes your hardware for fast rendering. To construct and compile videos, the application relies on two essential open-source media utilities: ImageMagick and FFmpeg. Follow the steps below to prepare your environment.

๐Ÿ› ๏ธ Step-by-Step Installation

โ€‹
1. Install ImageMagick (Crucial for subtitle/text rendering)

  1. Download the official installer from the official page: ๐Ÿ‘‰ Download ImageMagick for Windows
  2. Run the downloaded .exe installer.
  3. IMPORTANT: During installation, ensure you tick the checkbox for โ€œInstall legacy utilities (e.g. convert)โ€. If you skip this, nQivi Studio will fail to render text elements.

โ€‹
2. Install FFmpeg

  1. Download the automated installer package: ๐Ÿ‘‰ Download FFmpeg Installer (Click on FFmpeg_Full.msi)
  2. Run the .msi file. It will automatically extract FFmpeg and configure your system environment variables (PATH) so the app can locate it immediately.

๐Ÿš€ Running the Client App

Once the dependencies are installed:
  1. Double-click the nQivi Studio executable file (or run the startup shortcut) to launch the Gradio local server.
  2. The terminal window will open, indicating the app is initializing.
  3. Once running, open your web browser and navigate to: ๐Ÿ‘‰ http://127.0.0.1:8386 (or the custom port printed in your terminal console).
[!TIP] If you encounter text rendering issues, ensure that ImageMagickโ€™s path is correctly configured, and restart your computer to apply path environment changes.
