Premiere requires internet connection?

[701h 12]

Hi,

 

Starlink had an outage of over 30 minutes today. During this time the whole house was unable to watch TV as Emby said we didn't have Premiere. This is very boring. Could you make it so that lifetime subs only need to check for the license once a year or something?

Yeah, I'm not sure I understand this either.  It's not like they have all our creds, know our servers and their IPs and so they know we own premiere so I agree if the internet is out there is no reason for it not to work.  And if this has something to do with those who have subscription premiere that should only need to be checked when the next interval is expiring.

Just wondering if you're using Emby Connect on your devices or if you connect via local IP Address. I can still use Emby when the internet is down on the local network AFAIK.

I don't use emby connect. I'm sure this was just a random timing thing, and emby just decided to check the license during this outage. I still think it's unnecessary if the license is a lifetime one.

Hi, we'll do some testing on this. Thanks for reporting.
