Please use this article if you are an existing or new V1 Pro user and need to upgrade to the new pro software. (The process is the same whether or not the older V1 Pro HD software is already installed).
Important: Do not uninstall V1 Pro HD before installing V1 Pro Studio. Users can and should keep both installed side by side. Please note, you do not need V1 Pro HD installed in order to install V1 Pro Studio.
The new V1 Pro software is most compatible with the following system requirements:

6. Confirm the download location (the place on your computer you want your software save to be located). Click "Next" if you are okay with the default location or choose "Browse" to locate another location to save your V1 Pro Studio software files.
7. Select the features you want to install
Important: Steps 10.a-10.i are only applicable if the "codec pack" checkbox is selected on Step 7 below.

The software decoding option is most compatible, the DXVA2 Copy-Back option gives best performance when used on capable hardware.
