That's not exactly the way to encourage folks to want to use the software. So everybody now has to track down the illegal copy user and "correct" his/her errant ways. We potentially can have many layers of folks between the original and an end-user.
LIGHTWRIGHT 6 SAVE TO LW5 UPGRADE
Once they upgrade to legal, they can send the damned file again, with NM having no need to get involved.Īnd how do I deal with a file that comes up illegal that has been given to a advance person who's not the creator of the file. Usually it's a file for an event that is visiting our theater at some point in the future and is sent as an -email alongside all the other tech info.Īnd to be clear and if I'm reading your (Juan) post correctly, you remove the restriction caused by the file being created on an illegal copy, the moment the user of the illegal software upgrades to a legal version. I often times have no clue who the original user/file creator might be. So what you are saying is that a file created on a so-called illegal version, cannot be opened unless we/you can track down the user and have them upgrade to a legal version.Īs note: I don't "work" with these people. If you wanted to expand, possibly keep track of the IP address that keeps reporting attempts to open a pirated file, and/or keep track of the user license and then an e-mail to the user that supporting pirated versions is in violation of the spirit of the en-user agreement, might well suffice. The older method of simply opening a web page to notify of the pirated copy was sufficient. To use this feature, you need Eos family software 2.5.1.0.25 or newer.

This is NOT the same thing as Console Link, which handles cue list and group data.
LIGHTWRIGHT 6 SAVE TO LW5 PATCH
I simply find the change in policy extreme. Lightwright 6 has a new feature that lets you easily patch an Eos family console from Lightwright data, including mapping Lightwright fixture profiles to the Eos profile. In that scenario, I don't know this person from Adam and while I will tell them that I cannot open the file (and why), I am in no position to play Software Pirate Police with them, nor should I be asked too.

It's usually a one time (and infrequent) experience, with a file sent sometimes from an agent for a visiting act, or more likely from the LD/Superviser themselves, who might well be aware they are using a pirated version. That assumes you deal continually with a person using a pirated version, which is (in my experience) typically not the case.
