UniKey Video Protect Tool

UniKey Video Protector

UniKey Video Protect Tool has two parts:

UniKey Video Protector

This tool is for vendor to encrypt their video files and then send the encrypted video files to their end users. The encrypted video files cannot be accessed or used, if the correct UniKey dongle has not been inserted into the end user's computer.

UniKey Video Player

This tool is for end users to access the encrypted video file after inserting the correct UniKey dongle into their computer. The encrypted video file will only work on the UniKey Video Player. If the vendor wants to use their own player, please contact our support team to ask for the respective libraries and APIs in order to integrate the UniKey video protection solution with your own player. Then your player will be able to access the encrypted video files .

Encrypt Video Files by using the UniKey Video Protector

Please open the UniKey Video Encyptor.exe under the directory of SDK\Video Protector\Video Vendor

Clicking the [...] button will let you add new video files you want to protected.

Choose the corresponding video format. Please choose 'All files (*.*)' for your file type, if your video's file format is not displayed in the list. Then choose your video file(s), and after encrypting, it will generate a folder called EncryptVideo, and the protected video file will be saved inside of it. Only when you insert the UniKey dongle and use the Unikey Video Player can the video be watched.

Input UniKey's Four Passwords

Please input your UniKey's four passwords in these fields. In order to use UniKey Video Protector, you need to input all four passwords to verify vendor permission.

Bind to UniKey Device(s)

Bind HID is used for binding the encrypted video file to your dongle's unique Hardware ID, this will allow only this UniKey dongle to access the encrypted video file.

Bind SID is used for binding the encrypted video file to your self-defined software ID, this will allow end users to play the same encrypted video file with different UniKey dongles. In order to share the encrypted video file, please keep the Bind HID option unchecked.

Bind Module is used to bind the encrypted video file with your dongles' license modules. UniKey STD, PRO and Time have 64 license modules to use, while UniKey Drive has 256 modules. After binding the encrypted video file with the specific module, the encrypted video file can only be accessed by that UniKey dongle for as long as the bound module is active.

Install the UniKey Player and Run the Encrypted Video File

Please double click the Easy Setup.exe located in the directory SDK\Video Protector\Player

And install the player and its component. Then open the player and play the encrypted video file, while the dongle is connected to your client PC. If you don’t insert the correct dongle into the PC, then you cannot play the encrypted video file.
