Troubleshooting Concurrent Connections Issue on Jellyfin Server - Maxy TV - 2024-02-12
Hello again, I'm experiencing issues with my Jellyfin server and I'm not quite sure how to resolve them.
Currently, I have my Jellyfin hosted on a VPS, which saves me from paying for the electricity of my PC being on all day since I also share my Jellyfin with my family.
However, a significant problem arises, and it's that I have accounts for my friends and people outside my family circle. For them, I limit simultaneous connections to 1. The problem is precisely that, with these limitations, the server seems not to monitor connected devices in real-time, especially when they are using unofficial clients like Findroid, Jellyseer, or Swiftfin. The use of these is quite necessary as it allows content playback without the need for me to transcode my video.
I found this thread on GitHub, but I don't think it's my case since I don't use reverse proxy at all; I directly give the IP of my VPS.

Honestly, I don't know if I'm doing something wrong or if there's a possible solution or plugin. I would appreciate it if you could help me.
Thank you very much.

Jellyfin is a bit slow to recognize when a session ends, which is problematic when you want to restrict concurrent sessions. Actually, I can't get Jellyfin to honor the concurrent sessions setting on my Jellyfin. I wonder if its because I'm using IPv6.

I don't think it's because of IPv6, I use IPv4 and still encounter this issue.
Honestly, that poses quite a problem. I've noticed that sometimes it takes up to 15 minutes to update.
Thank you very much for your help.
