Hi Matthias,
We have a similar issue here. In Fusion 8, the RenderNode requires a license server location. For this to work, we have to install the FusionServer onto a dongle-equipped machine. Then the FUSION_LICENSE_SERVER environmental variable is set to that machines IP address (Hostnames do not seem to resolve).
This allows the RenderNode to pull a license, however, this method does not appear to work when launching Fusion Studio. Our theory was to have all 4 of our dongles on one machine, and the variable would point to it, kind of like a floating license server. If we try this we cannot get a license to launch Fusion Studio, although the RenderNode can.
I've emailed Blackmagic support for clarification, but not had any response yet.
