Hi I love emby it’s to good to be true kind of thing. Thanks! I use emby for sharing my movies on local network, but I want to limit the number of downloads per user per day. So that my network don’t get busy. So my question is how do I handle this? Please help.

Hi. Just so we're clear, what are you calling a "download"?

Hi ebr I was mostly interested on video files. but I mean any content video or music.

But, by "download" do you actually mean downloading the entire file to the device for offline playback or are you actually talking about limiting playback?

Hi, I would open a new topic just about this topic; download and my doubts are:

1. I have a local embyserver, with content on the server in my house. the client can download the movie in fact, that is, it will download and can watch offline?

2. I have an embyserver in virtual machine, with content in the cloud, in .strm files.

Can the customer download what content exactly? ie will it download the movie file itself or will it just have a pointer to the url to the strm file and if I remove the video file in the cloud, will it lose access?
thank you very much for your information

I can't find the post now but there was a user on here who was able to setup rules on their nginx reverse proxy to limit downloads . I think the reverse proxy was setup to limit the download speed and number of concurrent downloads but I am not sure about the number of daily downloads.

This actually isn't an easy one to help with because it will require knowledge of the entire system. We have to the user permission added to the server, then we have to get the server to return error response codes on download attempts, and then we have to get the apps to display friendly error messages. This also affects the download & sync feature so there's a bit involved here.

Buenas tardes me gustaría que se pudiera limitar a cada usuario la cantidad de archivos (Música, Videos, Películas) que descargan de forma simultánea y la velocidad de descarga de los mismos.

 

ejemplo:

 

El: Cliente 1--  solo pueda descargar 2 archivos usuario de forma simultánea de la biblioteca películas y bloquear la descarga de otras bibliotecas 

 

El:  cliente 2-- solo pueda descargar 5 archivos de usuario de la biblioteca de música de forma simultánea y bloquear descargas de otras bibliotecas

 

El:  Cliente 3 -- solo pueda descargar 1 archivo de usuario de todas las bibliotecas de forma simultánea

Customer?

Doesn't seem appropriate for a personal media library 🤔
