VideoFOCUS 14.1 Pro provides a simplification of the import dialog and a simple one click media concatenation operation. Further details can be found here here.

Windows 10 has a function that detects how frequently a program has been downloaded and shows a message if it has not been downloaded by a significant number of users. With our new versions of VideoFocus you may receive the message "Windows SmartScreen prevented an unrecognized app from starting". To proceed with installation just check the box next to "I understand the risk and want to run this app", and click Run anyway.

DONGLE USERS:

Dongle Driver (change in version 10): The Sentinal Runtime dongle driver is no longer automatically installed.

Recently supplied VideoFOCUS dongles are driverless and do not require any driver software to be installed to function correctly, but if you have an older dongle the Sentinel Runtime should be installed to provide the driver. A recent version of the Sentinel Runtime installer can be downloaded from here or from the Sentinel Support site.

Note that if your dongle has already been used successfully on your computer with a prior version of VideoFOCUS then no further action is required because if a dongle driver is necessary it is already installed.

Installation ID: On first use VideoFOCUS will request an Installation ID as part of the process of updating the dongle to a 10.1 license. Your Installation ID can be found on the tag on your dongle.
