[FYI] Bad license if DLL is not named as is

If DGDecodeNV.dll is renamed as something else (DG4k.dll in my case), it produces green screen saying bad license.

If I leave 2 copies with both names, it properly loads video, and does so even if DGDecodeNV.dll was not the same version as the renamed dll.

Since nowhere does it say the dll name cannot be renamed, I'd consider this as an undocumented behavior if it's not a bug.

Thanks.

Yes, that is correct, you cannot rename it, because I use the name to find the license file. If you have some serious need to do so please explain it, otherwise I won't do anything about it, other than mention it in the documentation.

No, I don't have trouble with this. I happened to delete the file with original name and see the bad license notice. Simply duplicate the file solves my problem.
