I can also confirm this bug. However I don't think the Webui disallow access other user, it just you have to at least type in your username and password three times or few more, then just click cancel to certain point and then type in your username and password again before auth window can disappear.

I am running Tvheadend 3.2.18~g40a8920~precise.

Walter,

I've just submitted a fix for #1393, I wonder if this fix may also fix this issue?

Could you check.

Apparently not. :(
I think this issue is simply an effect of have components under a same tabpanel with higher access permission level than that panel has.

I think the problem is basically the same problem as #1393, but its a more pervasive problem.

I'll take a quick look, but its not my area of expertise.

Ok,

same problem different file. I believe it now works, however because I don't fully understand how the browsers handle auth changes (and it probably varies from browser to browser) it can be a bit contrived to get it to switch from one user to another.

But I consider that a separate issue that probably needs better management of auth on the UI.
