Keep the three counts separate
A device can open transport connections. HTTP/2 can multiplex multiple request exchanges within a connection. An application can also establish a viewing session evaluated by the service under its own rules. These quantities do not have a universal one-to-one relationship.
A player may request a playlist, media pieces, artwork or other resources. Several protocol streams can therefore belong to one ordinary viewing task. Conversely, connection reuse does not establish that two active screens count as only one customer session.
Read the account condition from the operator
The approved IPTV Canada term totals specify duration and CAD amount, not a simultaneous-viewing number. Ask for the actual allowance and supported switching process. An app's installed-device list is also a different record from currently active media access.
Do not open extra sessions merely to infer the limit from a network counter. A technical maximum in an HTTP implementation is not a commercial entitlement. The relevant operator must state and enforce its actual account rule.
Use diagnostics for their real purpose
If a developer asks about HTTP/2 behaviour, provide the actual application version, request role, time and safe error. A connection-level issue and an account refusal deserve different reports. The number of exchanges alone cannot identify an expired term or a device transfer problem.
An illustrative one-screen player can make several concurrent requests for its normal interface and media work. That does not mean it consumed several permitted televisions. The example explains protocol terminology without asserting how a specific service counts sessions.
Resolve access through the supported process
Stop sessions you control in the documented way and ask support about any unexpected active account state. Do not rotate addresses, force protocol versions or manipulate connection counts to bypass an allowance.
After an authorized correction, test the intended screen arrangement within the confirmed rule. Keep the operator's answer with the account record, separate from network measurements. The useful result is a clear viewing allowance and a correctly described protocol observation, with neither used as a substitute for the other.

Can one HTTP/2 connection carry several request exchanges?
Yes. Multiplexing is a protocol feature. It does not determine the customer's permitted concurrent viewing.
