The Basics about Copy Protection

This feature prevents that the application can be run on different machines. It binds the license file to a hardware specific item.

The user cannot move the Multimedia Player from computer A to computer B, because the hardware identifiers that are used for Copy Protection will be different on any other machine - Copy protection does not prevent the copy process, but starting the Multimedia Player on non-licensed machines.

The place where the license file is stored is used to determine the hardware information of the machine.

•	If the license file is stored on a local machine, the hardware of the local machine will be used.

•	If the license file is stored on a server, the server hardware will be used. Whenever starting the Multimedia Player on a local machine within a network, Multimedia Protector will retrieve the server hardware even if the Multimedia Player is running on the local machine.

Copy Protection can be used as an option. You can create a license without Copy Protection buy just sending out an Unlock Key without Copy Protection.
