les mises à jour des softs des constructeurs tiers (exemple Version de Boris BCC, Sorenson, Plugs AVX1 ou AVX2), ne sont pas/plus incluses dans les updates.
En effet, les mises à jours de plugs sont parfois nécessaire pour le passage d’une version software à l’autre; elles nécessitent parfois un update payant.
Faites notamment attention au plug Boris par exemple compatible uniquement dans les dernières versions avec Media Composer (32/64 bits)

Why do I get a message « Your system is not licensed to run this software. »?
The error message occurs when there is a conflict between the software version encoded to your dongle and the version of Avid installed to your system. Before contacting technical support, please ensure the following procedures have been taken.
1.) Did you download a version of software that is a chargeable upgrade?
For customer convenience, all releases are available on the Avid downloads page. However, support updates are designated for registered users that qualify for the available upgrade. If you download a version that you are not entitled to, you will receive the message stating that you are not licensed to run when launching your Avid software.
On the download page you will see a message that explains eligibility for the download. Example:
For Registered Avid Xpress Pro 5.7 Users
IMPORTANT NOTE – For v.5.7 only: This release is for registered customers of Avid Xpress Pro v5.7 or higher. If you are running an earlier release, you will need to upgrade your software through a chargeable upgrade.
