Run Multiple Instances of Emby Theater

[rickgillyon 10]

I'm currently trying to migrate from Plex to Emby. I've got most things working fine, but one thing I do with Plex is run several instances of Plex on the same Win10 system so I can watch 3 things at once. I can do this despite PMP only allowing one instance by running them under multiple user accounts, i.e.:

C:\Windows\System32\PsExec64.exe -i -u MAXIMUS\Plex1 -p <pass> -d "C:\Program Files\Plex\Plex\Plex.exe" -accepteula -nobanner

I've tried this with Emby Theater, but when I launch the second instance it doesn't run. When I close the first instance, the second instance runs as though it was waiting for the first to finish. Is there any way I can get this to work?

Hi there, welcome. The app has single instance enforcement built in so I'm not sure this is going to work.

Thanks. Single instance should normally only apply to the same user, if we have two users and they both run it, that should work and keep running while switching users. You would think the fact that everything is in the user's ProgramData folder would help. Never mind, I'll find another way.
