XPlay requires a valid registration code to enable full use of the product. If you have purchased XPlay, you should have received a registration code or instructions on how to obtain your registration code with your installation materials. The registration code contains the product serial number and is unique to each PC on which XPlay is installed. Depending on whether or not you have additional encoding options installed, you may need to register the options as well.

XPlay Application Registration

Enter registration information by selecting Help | Register from the main menu. You'll be presented with a dialog similar to the following:

Fill in the User Name and Company Name fields as desired, and then enter the Release Key, exactly as it was supplied to you. Click on the [Register] button to save your registration information.

Hint: If you received your registration release key electronically, you can copy it from the source document and paste it into the Release Key field. Copy the key information in the source document, select the Release Key field in the XPlay Registration dialog, and use [Ctrl-V] to paste the key.

apt-X™ Encoder Registration

If you have the apt-X encoder software installed with a product, you must register this software module separately. The encoder software is machine-specific. This software can only be registered after it’s installed on the PC.

When first installed, the apt-X encoder will pop up a trial run dialog when the host application is run. The dialog includes the option to register the software. The dialog will be similar in appearance to the sample below:

To get the registration process started, copy both the MID and Site Code information displayed on the trial dialog. You can use a mouse to select and copy each of the two codes to the Windows clipboard, if you wish, to avoid handwriting the information.

Both the MID and Site Code need to be sent to your supplier so the registration unlock code can be generated.

The apt-X registration dialog normally closes after several seconds if no action is taken by the user. To keep the dialog from closing while you copy down the needed information, select the "Unlock Application" radio button, which prevents the dialog from closing.

Soft apt-X™ Registration Step-by-Step

1.To register, select the “Unlock Application” radio button when the apt-X registration dialog is displayed. This stops the dialog from disappearing after a few seconds, giving you the time to write down both the MID Code and the Site Code, which appear across the top of the display.

2.When you have written down both codes, select the “Enter Application” radio button and click on the [Continue] button.

3.E-mail the Mid Code and Site Code information you’ve written down to your supplier, or alternatively, use our on-line product-specific contact form. To better identify your request, write “Soft apt-X Registration” in the Subject line of your e-mail.

4.You will receive by return e-mail the necessary Init Code to register the apt-X software. You will also receive a Remove Code, which may be needed at a later time. Be sure to keep both of these codes for future use.

5.When you receive the Init Code, launch the application that uses the apt-X software. The apt-X dialog will again appear. Select the “Unlock Application” radio button and enter the Init Code you received. Click on the [Continue] button. The registration information is recorded and the apt-X software is now registered.

If you decide to move the software that uses apt-X and the apt-X encoder software to another machine or substantial changes occur on the PC running with the apt-X software, the apt-X registration will have to transferred or updated. In order to do so, you will need the Remove Code. Be sure you have saved both the Init Code and the Remove Code in a safe place!
