Stop shared logins / Free
Each logged-in account can watch on a limited number of devices at the same time, two by default. A shared password stops being free for the second household.
When an account starts a video, MediaShield opens a session and the player checks in every 30 seconds. Once an account has as many active streams as you allow, the next one is refused with a message asking the viewer to close another video first. Closing a tab ends its session straight away, and a session that stops checking in drops out of the count after five minutes, so a student who shuts their laptop is not locked out for long.
Set the number under Settings > Concurrent Streams. Two suits most courses: a laptop and a phone. Raise it for family or team plans. A developer hook fires when the limit is reached, if you want to log it.
A device here is a browser on a network, so a student with several videos or tabs open on one laptop counts once. The limit stops simultaneous sharing, not a student lending their password for an evening. Guests are never counted: they have no account to share. There is no admin button to end one person's sessions yet; it is available to administrators as a REST call.
The stream limit is free. Pro flags unusual viewing, such as rapid seeking, on a screen for you to review. It does not send an alert email. Every row, side by side.
No licence key, no site limit, nothing that expires.

Swift and expert coding by Kerit to apply a personalised display adjustment on the Reign Theme for a media plugin that was not fully supported at the moment.
I received a very nice answer just a few hours after I created a ticket. Funnily enough, the feature I had requested in my ticket had just been implemented and released, so Kerit asked me to update the LD Dashboard plugin. It all works as I had hoped for my use case. Maybe I wasn't the first to…
