New version 11.00.13684 of the editing application EDIUS 11 has seen the return of the media used indicator in the timeline (the "green dot" for binned previews), as well as significant new hardware decoding of H.264 (AVC) and H.265 (HEVC) media via Nvidia NVDEC, as well as GPU acceleration for other native EDIUS effects (Primary Color Correction, Monotone and Median). Of course, there are also minor fixes and optimizations (e.g. faster display of bin content)... Full list of new features here, new version available for download at edius.net/edius_download.html. Note: Along with the EDIUS 11.10.13684 update, you must also install the new VisTitle 3.100 (Express or full version). Therefore, it is recommended to perform the installation using the EDIUS 11 Setup Manager. If you will be installing the update manually, download the VisTitle 3.100 Update here.

Installing your Lens Mount

FOR DEVICES WITH THE CAMERA IN THE CENTER OF THE BACK (FAR FROM THE EDGE).

1. Remove the edge camera insert (short plastic edge piece) by pushing it outwards along the metal bracket rails
2. Grab your Center Camera Insert and align along the metal bracket rails.
3. Push down firmly until you hear a subtle click.
4. Slide the lens mount over your device and align with the device’s camera as accurately as you can for the best results.
5. Once your mount is aligned with the camera, begin to tighten the thumbscrew until it is firm in place.
6. Small adjustments to mount alignment may be necessary after tightening down the thumbscrew.
7. You are now ready to attach your lens to your mount

FOR DEVICES WITH THE CAMERA CLOSER TO THE EDGE OF THE PHONE.

1. Your mount will come installed and ready to use with the edge camera insert
2. Ensure you have your device pushed all the way up to the inner pad of the metal bracket of the lens mount (the device will touch the foam insert inside of the lens mount)
3. Slide the lens mount over your device and align with the device’s camera as accurately as you can for the best results.
4. Once your mount is aligned with the camera, begin to tighten the thumbscrew until it is firm in place.
5. Small adjustments to mount alignment may be necessary after tightening down the thumbscrew.
6. You are now ready to attach your lens to your mount

*If you are using a tablet or iPad, it is best to slide the mount horizontally than vertically as you would with a mobile device.

FOR DEVICES THINNER THAN 6MM (E.G. LAPTOP SCREEN OR TABLETS IN SOME CASES)

1. Remove the thin screw pad from the thumbscrew, by pulling away (pads are press-fit into the end of the thumbscrew).
2. Align the thick screw pad onto the thumbscrew and press down to snap the pad into place on the end of the thumbscrew.

BEST PRACTICES

1. Do not leave the lens mount attached to your device while not in use
2. Do not store the lens mount with a lens attached
3. Remove your lens cap prior to attaching your lens onto the mount

Disclaimer: Using a Moment case is the way to go. This clip is for everyone who owns a phone where we don’t have a case. Although we love it, it’s not as perfect as using a Moment Phone Case. (our boss made us say that)

Device Compatibility: For best results, we recommend using the M-Series mount for any devices that were released in 2017 and newer and for O-Series mount, any devices released in 2016 or older.
