Dewey80 7 Posted June 19, 2017 Posted June 19, 2017 Hi All, I'm looking for some advice on setting up emby premiere in a co-location situation. I live in China, but will be moving to Europe for 5 months later this year... the internet doesn't travel too well across the border so streaming my content from my server in China won't be feasible. The solution I was thinking of was to buy a Synology NAS (with emby server installed) to serve separate content during my 5 month stay. I would use a separate user account that only has visibility to the local NAS content. Technically I could just create a totally separate server with the NAS but I have a premiere subscription and I would like to leverage the benefits of this in both locations as my family will remain in China. Any ideas on how this setup should look? Welcome your thoughts... Cheers, D

Dewey80 7 Posted June 20, 2017 Author Posted June 20, 2017 Hi @Luke, @@ebr, Ultimately I'm hoping to have my premium license to exist in both location, so I can leverage the added services. I was envisaging using different users where the content of each is only pointed to the local content so that no meta-data needed to be copied across the interwebs. I have a feeling it's not possible but wanted to check with some experts first. Cheers, Dewey
ebr 16187 Posted June 21, 2017 Posted June 21, 2017 Hi. That should work fine as long as the separate location doesn't cause you to go over the device limit (not likely based on your description).
Dewey80 7 Posted June 22, 2017 Author Posted June 22, 2017 Great, thanks @@ebr. No I'll be taking my devices with me, so net the same How should I go about setting up my new NAS? Anything special I have to do to register it with the same license? Also, I'd like to set the NAS up before I leave, which means it will initially exist within the same home network as my existing server... anything special I need to do to avoid issues/conflicts etc? Cheers, Dewey
ebr 16187 Posted June 22, 2017 Posted June 22, 2017 Just put the same key in the new server. Everything should be fine with what you are trying to do. Thanks.
