Misc Info

Please note that the Visionaire Studio Licenses are only for Visionaire Studio itself & do not give you the right to distribute copyrighted materials, resources & media formats etc of which you don't have the permission or license for. i.e: if you want to use .mp3 for your audio, then you need to acquire a license from wherever it is; it's all a bit complicated. To avoid having to purchase additional licenses: we recommend using .ogg (vorbis) for your audio & .mkv (matroska) with VP8 WebM codec for your videos as they are both free to use commercially.
