Playback of this content is currently restricted

Hi There,

I'm very new to Emby so apologies if I sound like a noob. For some unknown reason I seem to be getting the following message "Playback of this content is currently restricted. Please contact your Emby server administrator"

I am able to login to one device with Emby and everything works fine however when I login to say my ipad or my smart tv every time I play a video I get this error message. I was wondering if anyone knew why I'm getting this message and how I might resolve this? 

Many thanks,

Are you connecting to your own server or someone else's?

Sound the user settings has playback disabled.

"I am able to login to one device with Emby"

Or the user is limited to 1 device, more likely.

Hi There,

Thanks for your replies.

I believe my profile is limited to one device as well. I'll check the settings and update.

Thank you!!
