The company will roll out tactics to mitigate password sharing in 2024. While Iger said Disney should see some effects from the rollout in 2024, the initiatives to prevent password sharing won’t be completed next year.

    I had to get a graphics card for my plex server to handle the number of my friends transcoding because of the Netflix password crackdown.

      Tell your friends if they want to stream from your server they need to be able to direct stream

        I tried. Even if the direct play is 1080p, they still transcode and they don’t know the difference. They just ask “why is it buffering so much”. The luxury about netflix is that it handled all the quality control with zero fiddling. I screech every time I see the little HW symbol.
