PSA for Luxriot Evo Complimentary users: loss of license

If you’re currently running Luxriot Evo Complimentary, I’ve just discovered that it’s no longer possible to re-install under the old license model of up to 9 cameras being free. You can download the past versions but the activation fails.

I’ve spoken to Luxriot about this and their response was that my only option was to pay up (my server recently failed completely, with total data loss). I’ve switched to Agent DVR but will give Blue Iris a go to see if it better meets my requirements. It’s a shame, because I really liked Luxriot but I have no way of knowing that I wouldn’t have similar issues with a paid version down the road. If you’re running the complimentary version, it’s probably worth looking at alternatives in case something happens that forces you to switch (assuming you’re not happy to pay up).
