Graphic Hub License

For all Graphic Hub modes except Localhost and 5/4 Free, a license is required. A license is normally acquired when the product is purchased. To get additional or updated licenses, contact the local Vizrt representative. The Graphic Hub Terminal License window is used to register a license for the Graphic Hub server, whether it is the first or a renewed license. A new license can also be applied using the Graphic Hub Manager.

Tip: To avoid service interruptions, make sure to update the license before it expires.

To Apply a New or Renewed License

  1. Make sure that the correct license USB dongle is inserted in the machine.

  2. In the Graphic Hub Terminal, go to About -> Graphic Hub License.

    Note: If this is the first time a license is registered, or if the previously registered license has expired, the license details will display Expired! instead of an expiration date.
