Cant play more then a single stream concurrently

[xtinct101]

Hi,

I have nextpvr setup through docker on ubuntu.
Everything seems to be working fine when I play a single stream. As soon as I start another stream on another device the first stream stops(all from the same household) as soon as the second stream starts.
In "Devices" I have max-connections at 16.
Is there a setting somewhere I'm missing?

Thanks!

Update:
If I use the nextPVR webui to play channels I can play more then 1 stream without any issues.
It seems to be if I launch 2 jellyfin streams that the issue occurs.

This is not a NextPVR question, this is the jellyfin addon. Are you using two instances of jellyfin?

Sorry about that but its occurring on more clients then just Jellyfin.

It seems this issue is also occurring when I open 2 tabs of the nextpvr webgui and start a stream in each player. Once the second stream starts the first stream stops. If I relaunch the first stream, the second one stops.
Is there any restrictions regarding streams for an ip/client?

There are limitations on one stream per "client" which is why I asked. You need to open another browser instance to run two channels, but that wasn't your question.

hmm...then I'm not sure what's going on as I am using 2 separate instances of the webgui and it still occurs.
This is the same behavior I'm getting when I try to play it through jellyfin, on 2 different tv's, as soon as the second stream starts the first stops.

Is there a way to override the single stream per client to test it?

Try the second instance in a private Window if you don't want to open a new browser.

If you have jellyfin questions open a real support post in the correct forum https://forums.nextpvr.com/forumdisplay.php?fid=15 with logs. I will need the jellyfin logs too, it might not be an issue with the addon.

The client based logic is sound it avoids a stop command which VLC, fplay etc could not send.

Thanks for the help Martin.
In case I wasn't very clear in my messaging, this is occurring for me using the nextPVR webgui, I've separated my issue from jellyfin.
I opened a stream in a private window and regular tab and as soon as the second stream starts the first stops.

Then you probably have an issue with the number of tuners not the web gui, but we'd need the zipped logs.
