andrewteg 1 Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 I have a couple longer videos and will sometimes put them on in the background and have noticed that at about the 4 hour mark it asks if I'm still streaming. Is that a setting that can be changed or turned off, as it only happens on these longer ones that are designed to be background videos I don't have to interact with. Thanks!

It is per device/client, User icon-app setting-Playback-Enable 'Are You Still Watching?' prompt might be a little different per client, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewteg 1 Posted April 23 Author Share Posted April 23 Thanks. It happened most recently on a Roku but has happened on the web app as well so I'll check that out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes there is an option in the Roku app setting named similar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14926 Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 Exactly what does the message look like and say? If it says "streaming" and not "watching" it could be coming from the device OS. I think the Roku has a message like this itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it is under something called "Bandwidth saving" or some such. It is also one of the few "options" Roku has that they defaulted, at least on my Rokus, to off (or to the least intrusive setting). That means i never turned it off so I have no idea if turning it on gets reset from time to time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speechles 1920 Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 https://support.roku.com/article/360037927713 It comes defaulted on and affects everything on the Roku. Settings >> Network >> Bandwidth Saver Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewteg 1 Posted April 25 Author Share Posted April 25 Thanks all. Good to know and think I got it all figured out between Roku and Emby settings! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
