Limit reached

Got an error message on the Xfinity stream app on my iPhone.   Saysthat Limit Reached:: TVAPP-00249. Devices associated with this household are already playing the maximum number of concurrent video streams.  To stream a program or live tv on this device, you must stop playing on another device?

What does this mean?  I only have one x1 tv box, 1 amazon fire tv, 1 computer, 1 laptop, 1 iPad, and 1 iPhone all connected to Xfinity stream, yet I don't have all of them on all the time.  This only happens when I try to watch the local channels (CBS, ABC, and FOX).   I have at&t fiber as my current internet service provider, and this issue didn't  happen 2-3 months ago when I used Xfinity stream outside of my house.  When will this problem be fixed?

Probably tied into the issue some of us are having with CBS ABC and Fox.

Hello user_bghwkh, thank you for including that error code you're seeing on your end, that helps a lot. Before we dive into some troubleshooting steps together, have you attempted any troubleshooting steps on your end? That way we avoid any repeat steps.
