Invalid licence response

I have been using different versions of subsonic andoid apps for the last few months. I was bothered with the ads. I have compiled dsub, but even with it I get some popups when I try for instance to play a playlist ("play now"). It says that the time frame for unlimited downloads is over and that I should donate to get unlimited downloads back. I am using musiccabinet on the other side.

Is this behavior normal? What should I do to remove that popup that blocks me from playing some stuff.

Is it normal to get that with Musiccabinet?

I haven't actually changed the getLicense.view, I wasn't aware the apps bothered to use it. For me, it returns:

Code: Select all
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<subsonic-response xmlns="http://subsonic.org/restapi" status="ok" version="1.7.0">
  <license valid="true" email="xxx" key="xxx" date="2012-04-25T22:16:14"/>
</subsonic-response>


Do the apps check the key and compare it to the email address (I think it's just md5:ed.. or used to be)? i.e do we need to put real, fake values there, or can we use any dummy value?

I have no idea. Maybe it would be best to just remove it?

I considered removing the licence check. The reason I left it in is because in a default installation the server will give invalid licence responses no matter what you do once the trial expires.

And no I dont do anything special I just check if that view returns true or if any of the views return invalid licence error.

Thanks! It should be safe to just return that the license is valid no matter what, then.
