Information about the activation-system of EDIUS 9
Prior to the introduction of EDIUS 9 Grass Valley allowed users to activate EDIUS up to three times: typically for a desktop PC, a notebook and one more activation as an emergency-reserve for unforeseeable events. Regretfully this system was subject to misuse; therefore Gras Valley changed the system to be able to deactivate the usage of illegal software. Most users will not notice any difference. But from time to time (at least once within 60 days) the Grass Valley-system will try to verify the EDIUS ID. Therefore it is important to connect the editing-system to the internet from time to time.

EDIUS comes with Grass Valley’s 90-day limited warranty.
