Licensing/Multiple connections

Submitted by svice on #1

Greetings,

I tried the software on my raspberry pi and it is an impressive solution.

I wish to know if it is possible to connect multiple clients to a USB device simultaneously.
If positive, which license do I need to purchase?

Thanks

No, only one client can connected to a device at once. This is a limitation of usb.

No its no physically possible. USB only has one plug and and one internal "state machine" which means there is no way to use the same USB device between multiple users. For multiple users a high layer protocol would be used, e.g a print server software or a camera sharing software to use the same device simultaneously.
