On the one hand with free software you get what you are given. On the other hand if it was some GNU software I wrote I would wish to be informed of things the user did not expect.
This is about DVDFab HD Decrypter.
I have been happily using Vn6 and it was updated to the last minor version available. I dipped into the main web site and fond the latest is now Vn8. It said Vn8 happily co-exists with Vn6 so I downloaded and installed.
I tried Vn8 always clicking on the HD Decrypter line in the option column and got no pop ups saying “you are trying …”. 35 days after install I first got :-
“The <x> option is expired.
Please buy it or renew …”
for every icon <x> I press. My Vn6 still works fine.
I can’t find anything in the FAQ about any changes to the free version. If I have missed something I am willing to be educated. If this is a symptom of a bug I hope this is received the same way as I would with my GNU software.
