jhoff80 87 Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 I've just noticed that when I log in as limited permissions users (that only have permission to playback media), they still are able to use the remote window to start playback for other users, despite not having that permission in settings. Not sure how long it's been that way, as I only log in as admin myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhoff80 87 Posted May 3, 2014 Author Share Posted May 3, 2014 Also, sorry, should've been more clear in the title of the post that I was talking about the "remote control" feature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37272 Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 which app are they logging in with? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhoff80 87 Posted May 3, 2014 Author Share Posted May 3, 2014 Tested it in a bunch of configurations, it's like the "Allow this user to remote control other users" is completely ignored in my testing. I was able to play on and control any of the other devices.

jhoff80 87 Posted August 16, 2014 Author Share Posted August 16, 2014 (edited) Still an issue for me. Anyone else seeing this? It surprises me it's not a bigger concern, so I'm wondering if it's just something weird on my end. Edited August 16, 2014 by jhoff80 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daimon 5 Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 (edited) It's the same here. "Allow this user to remote control other users" does nothing. Edited August 22, 2014 by Daimon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
