Separate device setup from connection limits

Practical steps, clear explanations and a useful place to start.

You may have compatible players on several devices, but installation count and simultaneous playback are different questions. A television, phone and computer can each retain setup details while the account permits a smaller number of concurrent streams. Confirm the specific order’s connection allowance with support before relying on more than one active screen.

Why it matters

A device limit warning can appear when an old player keeps a stream open in the background. Adding another app does not automatically expand the account allowance. Player licences can also be per device, independently of the content account’s connection rules.

Work through the steps

  1. Ask support to state the permitted concurrent streams for your chosen order.
  2. Stop playback on the old device before testing the account elsewhere.
  3. Keep separate notes of player-licence requirements and subscription connection limits.

What to avoid

The useful takeaway

No universal multi-screen allowance is published here. Do not share one set of account details broadly or assume a reseller pack establishes customer connection rules. If a warning remains after stopping other sessions, report the device and time to support.
