This is what I understand as well. I have been using it (well, specifically streamio + Rd with torrentio addon) for half a year so far and it's fantastic. Definitely seems too good to be true, but there's no catch imo :)
There's only 3 cons which for me aren't big deal breakers unless it's important to you
EDIT: As I was corrected below, bullet 3 only applies when under the same IP
I haven't looked up info on it yet - but the multiple devices at the same time, that's for one RD account I assume? So, could my spouse and I technically pay for 2 accounts in the same household, or no?
As far as I understand, yes! That's correct. I have 1 account so I can't stream multiple devices at the same time. But if you have 2 separate accounts there shouldn't be issues. I'm like 95% sure but someone correct me if wrong
You can absolutely stream as many devices as you please at the same time from the same IP address from a single account. You only get in trouble with RD if you stream from 2 different IP addresses simultaneously.
Ah that's the important part I was forgetting, I appreciate the correction!
So it's two months later, this still working for you? I'm looking at this for myself just setting up unraid now...
Yes, I use it practically daily and have had 0 issues aside from the very rare occasional maintenance/short outage. here's the guide originally from reddit that I followed after spending some time trying to figure it out
Your edit clarification is wrong btw. It should read: only applies when using different external IP addresses.
Thanks once again, jesus I can't read lol
