For information about licensing see available license options.

 

Select one of the 4 possible license types. Licence per:

 

•PC

•User / Person

•Concurrent user

•Number of program starts

Non-network license

If the application is a non-network application (installation on a single PC), choose license per PC and number of PCs during evaluation = 1. This is the only option in the Standard version. For details about the user license see Licence per PC.

Non-network license / single user installation

If the application is a non-network application (installation on a single PC) AND you want to limit it to one user, choose license per User and number of users during evaluation = 1. For details about the user license see Licence per User / Person.

Network license

You have to select license per PC, per User or Concurrent user. See also How to distribute a network version.

Number of program starts

This option limits the number of the program starts. It is valid for the evaluation version and also for the full version. You can create additional Keys to add more program starts.

 

Example - Evaluation version

The evaluation version should allow only 5 program starts.

 

•Set the Number of program starts during evaluation to 5

•Number of days to evaluate or End of Evaluation can be combined. Then the event which happens first terminates the evaluation version - either the expiry date or the number of program starts.

•If no time limitation is needed, set Number of days to evaluate = 0

 

 

Example - Full version

The user should be able to start the product only with a valid Serial Number and the license for the full version is 5 program starts:

 

•Set the number of program starts to 1

•Check the option: No evaluation version - Serial Number needed to start

•Create a Serial Number with the number of program starts = 5

•As you want to prevent, that a user can just reinstall the product after the number of program starts is 0, check the option: Advanced Protection against Reinstallation (Tamper Detection).

 

 

If this option is selected, a reinstallation on the same PC is not possible.

 

 

for all options

•The number of users / PC's or program starts for the full version can be changed with an Activation Key
 

•For network installations, the number of users / PCs has to be set to 99999 if no limitation is required.

 

 

 

 

If a user connects through a remote connection using a tool like Remote Desktop, Citrix, Terminal Server or gotomypc, it depends on the tool if the remote connection counts as a separate license. For most tools, Multimedia Protector retrieves the PC name of the remote PC and counts the connection as a new license.

 

 

This feature is available only in the Multimedia Protector Premium Edition.
