Flussonic License Key May 2026

After installation, always verify. A broken license often shows no error until you try to push streams.

For Flussonic running in Docker, mount the license file as a volume: flussonic license key

volumes:
  - ./license.txt:/etc/flussonic/license.txt:ro

Then restart the container.


systemctl restart flussonic

After purchase, you receive a .lic file or a plain text key string like:

-----BEGIN FLUSSONIC LICENSE-----
MzU2MjEtRkZaLTEyMzQ1LTY3ODkwLUFaQkMtREVGRy1ISUpLLUxNTk8tUFFSUy1UVVZXLVdYWVotQUJDMTIz
-----END FLUSSONIC LICENSE-----

Go to Status → License. A green box should appear showing your limits: After installation, always verify

License: Flussonic Media Server (Concurrent: 500)
Valid until: 2026-12-31
Status: Active
curl -X POST -d "key=YOUR-KEY" http://localhost:8080/flussonic/api/license

Even experienced admins encounter license issues. Here is a troubleshooting checklist.

| Error Message | Likely Cause | Solution | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | ERROR: License key has been revoked | The key was used on multiple servers or payment failed. | Contact Erlyvideo support. Do not buy keys from unauthorized resellers. | | Network error while validating license | Firewall blocking outbound HTTPS (port 443). | Whitelist license.erlyvideo.com and api.github.com (for update checks). | | License file corrupted | File encoding issues (e.g., Windows CRLF line endings). | Convert to Unix format: dos2unix license.txt. | | Feature 'transcoding' is not allowed | You have a basic streaming license but attempted to transcode. | Either disable transcoding or upgrade to a higher-tier license. | | Too many cameras (limit 32) | Watcher license limit exceeded. | Remove unused cameras or purchase channel expansion pack. | Then restart the container
