Can't connect to internet when running as admin

Post by ehhhhtozebec » Fri Nov 22, 2013 7:52 pm

I'm having problems. I'm using version 8.25.5560 which I received validation code for about a month and a half ago. Everything was going fine until yesterday. Even when running as administrator, I get the nag screen. It now asks me for ID which I no longer have access to. The program will not connect to server. I was wondering if a reinstall or update would fix the problem. If not - any suggestions?

Please upgrade your MediaCoder.

I was unable to reply earlier due to personal reasons. I have since upgraded but am still having the same problems. Nag seems to appear more often than it used to.

Maybe check to see if your antivirus/firewall is blocking it from accessing the network connection? I'm not sure what else might be the issue.

Also, what do you mean by "no longer have access to"?
In theory, theory and practice are the same. In practice, they are not.

AV is not the problem. I don't have a record of my activation code. I have upwards of 30 video files to encode which I planned on doing while I was away, but with the nag screen still coming up, this is impossible.

I think your activation code is the email address you registered with (it's what mine is). Otherwise, have you tried sending an email to support@mediacoderhq.com asking if they can check your registration?

Thank you. I'll give it a try.
