We want to use the JW Player (Self-Hosted) + Externally-Hosted Content as an Embedding Method (https://support.jwplayer.com/customer/portal/articles/1406723-mp4-video-embed#fndtn-method-4). In this case, do the usage restrictions defined in each of the licenses apply? If we have a free plan, can we stream more than 25 GB / month?
Hi,
Hosting and streaming limits only apply to content uploaded directly to our platform.
Play limits apply to all content despite where it is hosted. The limit for Plays is a soft limit, meaning your account and players will remain active even if you pass your monthly limit. We review Plays per account individually to figure out if this is a one time overage or if there’s a pattern of exceeding the limits, in which our Sales team will reach out about upgrading.
