Notifications/Alerts for limits being reached

[displayname0504 17]

I've had some family tell me they've had warnings about streaming limits being reached. I'm not sure why, since I check and they are well below any threshold or limit.

It would be great to have some alerting or notification to know when that is happening or how to troubleshoot it/remediate it.

Is it a user limit? system limit? Device limit?

That would be determined by the exact message they received.  What was that?

This is not a bad idea but will require a fair amount of work because the apps all handle this locally.  So something would have to be built to notify the server of these situations and all apps would need to be updated.

I can see 3 possible limit notifications:

1. Max Simultaneous video streams (system)

2. Max simultaneous video streams (users

3. Device limit

We should also have guidance how to remediate these.

The first two would be the easiest because the server is the one enforcing the limit so it could do this without any involvement of the apps.
