Can't Cast to Multiple Devices

[Mossway 4]

Hi, I just purchased Emby Premier and registered it on my Emby Server, no issues. 

I thought that would fix me not being able to cast (via Chromecast) to multiple devices in my house (all the TV's have a chromecast dongle). For some reason, when I cast to the second device, the first device stops playing.

Is there anything I can do to allow casting to more than one device please? I've already checked and the user I'm logged in as on my phone when casting, has "Unlimited" set as "Max simultaneous video streams" so I really didn't know what to do.

Hi,

Yes, that is how it should work. Casting is a one-to-one relationship between devices.
There is no one-to-many casting.

Thanks Carlos. 

I'm guessing that the Emby App on the TV can play multiple concurrent streams though?

Thanks again

What do you mean by multiple concurrent streams?
The TV app is only going to be able to show one video/stream at a time.

I mean have multiple TV's playing a different film at the same time which is something I can't do with Chromecasts

Oh, sure - that will work fine.
