iiiJoe 55 Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 (edited) Hello, all. Just wondering if anyone could help me with disabling my iptv while I’m sleeping in order to save data. I can do this in other players by simply disabling the playlist. Just not sure on Emby. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Luke 37009 Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 Hi, are you trying to prevent one of your users from using it? Or what communications exactly are you looking to stop? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, it might be best to try and tackle this at the network layer (your router may offer features to this end) but you could also put a schedule on your users with Parental Controls.

revengineer 122 Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 You should do that on your firewall with a timed rule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iiiJoe 55 Posted August 3, 2022 Author Share Posted August 3, 2022 Oh, ok. Would that be done through the router? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37009 Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 I'm just curious, what exactly is happening at off hours? Are you sure there is even something at all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you sure there is even something at all? Well, lol, that’s an excellent question. I’m a Tivimate refugee, and it was eating data in the background even after I thought I had exited the program. Loving Emby but I’m almost out of data on my plan so I can’t really experiment until it renews which is in 5 days. I will do some testing and report back. Thank you for responding!

Luke 37009 Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 Yea I think it would be better to find out what exactly is causing the data usage and when. Even if we had this, if nothing is being used during those off hours then it wouldn't actually help. Please let us know what you find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
