The first time you launch DV Kitchen, it will help you install the world’s best H.264 codec.

If you had any trouble, follow the steps below:

1.	Did you have trouble downloading the codec? If so, just click here to re-download it.
2.	Find the downloaded dmg (disk image). I have my browser set to download to my “Downloads” folder, so that’s where it downloaded to. If it did not open (mount) automatically, double-click the dmg file to open it.
3.	When it is open, you will see its contents in a Finder window like this:
4.	Open a new Finder window (Command N), then navigate to your main hard drive > Library > Quicktime.
5.	Finally, drag the item called x264Encoder.component into your Library/Quicktime folder.

Now you’re all set! Quit DV Kitchen, and the next time you launch it, you will have the world’s highest quality encoding at your fingertips.
