I tested it, but when I connect the WebSocket from a second client, the connection on the first client gets closed.

If only one connection is allowed, how can multiple users in an account subscribe to events in real time?

@Lukas3 are you referring to real time media stream? There can only be 1 connection per application. You might need another application to have 2 connnections at the same time.
