Trial Period expired after 7 days?

[Franc]

I thought it was 15? Just downloaded a week ago and been trying it out, but today my Placeshifter expired

As of v5.0.3, the placeshifter & extender trial periods should be 15 days. Prior to that, it was 7 days. If it doesn't go 15 days, you could email SageTV & let them know.

Yeah...or I guess I'll have to buy it already.
The client crashes now too.

Yeah, well, I just pulled my Credit Card

I got 'expired' again this evening, while the registration has been in place since this morning and PS worked all day.
Restarting the service solved it, but if this keeps happening I'll contact support.

I love PS! I showed off SageTV to my colleagues today, showing them I could watch TV or any of my recordings from work

As mentioned on p. 257 of the v5 manual (where it talks about registering the PS license), you should make sure the server is not running at all before registering the license. Otherwise, it might not stick.

Also, the 15 day trial has been resolved for a future update.

Thanks for the tip. I stopped the service and ran the Register License thingy just to see what would happen. It warned me I had 7 days left of my trial (?)
So I unregistered my key and I registered it again, all with the service stopped.
PS works fine for now, the Register thingy still mentions a trial period, but the words TRIAL don't show in the PS window anymore so I'll see what happens.
