Feature Request: Display the number and list of active Emby Premiere devices

Hello,

I would like to suggest a new feature for the Emby Premiere dashboard.

I currently have an Emby Premiere Lifetime subscription, and my server devices listed in the Devices section. However, I understand that this list includes all devices and applications that have connected to the server over time, and that it does not represent the devices currently counted toward the Emby Premiere limit.

At the moment, the Premiere page only displays a general message such as:

“Your device usage is well below the limit.”

This is reassuring, but it does not show the actual number of devices currently counted.

It would be very useful to have a section displaying:

  • The current number of Premiere devices, for example: 12 of 30 devices used
  • The list of devices that have used a Premiere feature during the last seven days
  • The device name
  • The application used, such as Emby Web, Emby for Android, Android TV or Fire TV
  • The date and time when the device last used a Premiere feature
  • The date when the device is expected to stop counting toward the limit

This would be especially helpful for users who have several televisions, Fire TV devices, NVIDIA Shield devices, mobile phones, browsers and different versions of the Emby application.

For example, installing both Emby for Android TV and Emby for Android on the same physical device may create two separate client entries. Without a detailed Premiere device list, it is difficult to know whether both applications are currently being counted.

If displaying identifiable device information creates privacy or security concerns, an anonymized list or simply an exact counter such as “12/30 active Premiere devices” would already be a major improvement.

It would also be useful to clearly explain in the interface:

  • What causes a device to count toward the Premiere limit
  • How long it remains counted
  • Whether reinstalling an application creates a new device entry
  • Whether two Emby applications installed on the same physical device count separately

Thank you for considering this feature. I believe it would make Emby Premiere device management much clearer and more transparent for server administrators.

Best regards.
