- Best run on an OS contemporaneous with the release (older Windows or macOS). If using modern systems, run in a virtual machine or compatibility mode, or transcode media to simpler codecs.
- Pre-convert clips to a single, low-latency codec (e.g., Motion JPEG or ProRes/Lossless where supported) for smooth playback.
- Use a dedicated GPU and disable power-saving features; test MIDI mappings before live shows.
- If you need advanced mapping, warping, edge blending or modern plugin support, consider newer ArKaos versions or contemporary VJ tools (Resolume, VDMX, etc.).
Installation Steps
- Disable Antivirus Temporarily: Only if you trust the source. Otherwise, scan the file with VirusTotal first.
- Run as Administrator: Right-click the
.exefile and select "Run as Administrator" to avoid registry errors. - Follow the Wizard: Accept the license agreement. Install to the default path (
C:\Program Files\Arkaos\GrandVJ). - Enter License Key: You will be prompted for a serial number or to detect a USB dongle. Without this, the software will run in "Demo Mode" (watermarked output after 20 minutes).
- Configure QuickTime: Install QuickTime 7 legacy (not QuickTime Player X) to ensure
.movfiles with PhotoJPEG or Animation codecs play correctly.
