ZLuckyTraveler 0 Posted February 17 Posted February 17 (edited) Q1a. Does an extended premiere license require already purchasing/having a monthly standard premiere license? Q1b. If so, does that mean I’ll have the standard 30 device limit + 50/80 devices for a total of 80/110 devices? Q2. Is there a way to purchase an extended premiere license for 1 year or lifetime? I only see a monthly option. Q3. Is there a way to upgrade a standard premiere license to extended to start immediately, and prorate whatever unused amount of time/money to the new plan? Q4. On the website a monthly standard premiere license is $4.99, but if I try to purchase it through the Emby Mobile App the fee is $6.99. Why does it cost more? Q5. I read that you can purchase multiple premiere licenses, but you can’t stack them. Why would you need/want to do this if they can’t be stacked? Edited February 17 by ZLuckyTraveler

No, numbers are not cumulative, you'll have 30 (standard) or 50/80 (extended) devices total. 35 minutes ago, ZLuckyTraveler said: Q2.

Likely App Store charge (AFAIK typically 30-ish %). 35 minutes ago, ZLuckyTraveler said: Q5. I read that you can purchase multiple premiere licenses, but you can’t stack them. Why would you need/want to do this if they can’t be stacked? You can have multiple servers with different keys, each one counts it's own device limit. If you use same key on multiple servers, device limit is cumulative across all of them. Edited February 17 by GrimReaper

Actually, the answer to this is no. The extended plans are stand-alone. 35 minutes ago, ZLuckyTraveler said: Is there a way to upgrade a standard premiere license to extended to start immediately, and prorate whatever unused amount of time/money to the new plan? Not really but if you send an email to billingsupport@emby.media we can try and work something out. In some cases, the fees charged by the processors eat into it enough that it doesn't make much sense. 9 minutes ago, GrimReaper said: Likely App Store charge (AFAIK typically 30-ish %) Correct. Answered here: Is there a limit to Emby Premiere? 1

ZLuckyTraveler 0 Posted February 17 Author Posted February 17 2 minutes ago, GrimReaper said: Yes. So for example an extended premiere license for 50 devices would cost $4.99 + $13.99 = $18.98 per month? You can only enter in 1 premiere key, so how does that work? Additionally I don’t see any way to link a standard premiere license to an extended premiere license. Quote No, numbers are not cumulative, you'll have 30 (standard) or 50/80 (extended) devices total. How could one of the possibilities be 30 devices if an extended premiere license requires purchasing both standard and extended?
GrimReaper 4160 Posted February 17 Posted February 17 Answered by @ebr, all extended plans are standalone.
ZLuckyTraveler 0 Posted February 17 Author Posted February 17 Aww yea I didn’t see their comment at the time I was typing, so page was refreshed only after sending my message.
ZLuckyTraveler 0 Posted February 17 Author Posted February 17 (edited) @ebrWhat are the phrases used in their order for the Emby Premiere Status? You have a Emby Premiere plan and your device usage is “xxx xxx xxx” limit. The best way to gauge usage of device limits as far as I can tell is by this, so it’d help to know what are all the stages and in which order they display in. Ive seen a couple of them, but am not sure of all and in what order. Edited February 17 by ZLuckyTraveler

ZLuckyTraveler 0 Posted February 17 Author Posted February 17 Quote "well within" "close to" "over" By any chance do any of those 3 options correlate to a specific percentage or an amount to “X” of the device limit or similar?
ebr 15681 Posted February 17 Posted February 17 "close to" will be indicated if you are within 5 devices of the limit.
