Dstv for 4 tv's independently
I'm thinking about moving over to DSTV compact from M-net stand alone. Problem is that we have 4 tv's at home and everyone watching one channel would be a massacre!(literally!)
So my question is, how do I get each tv with an independent dstv with the lowest of cost? (a dual view for each tv would be too expensive)

Sorry i think your only option is to get two duel views or you could wait for ODM by the end of this year and see what they have to offer
By the way if you dont know what ODM is its the new pay TV service launching fourth quarter of this year similiar to DSTV
4th q? Hmmm..so they say!Originally Posted by CharReaper

What about one of those card sharing wi-fi thingies?
...
doubt it they will work since the card and decoder are now linked (married) so anything in between won't work.

DSTV has Xtraview, using the 1110 decoders, multiple decoders can be linked up. I'm not sure if it can handle more than two decoders.

1 x Dreambox DM600 plus 3 x DM100 using your subbed card.
EDIT: Plus of course a QUAD LNB

I am the 0.25% and pis sed off with the soft-cap !!!!
Taking my cash to a Capped 50Gig account - way better than this Telkomsa carp!!
Using DSTV the most channels you can watch live is 3 by using a SDPVR & HDPVR combo (you can record another 3), SDPVRs are hard to find though
yeah wait for odm!!

AFAIK, the marriage is only valid for DSTV decoders, but may be annulled for any other makers.

3 independed is possible. extra view compo (SD PVR and HD PVR) go to this DSTV link. they will explain the installation for you. http://www.dstv.com/dstvsa/content/e...lation_options
What about SD PVR+SD PVR, thats 4 channels, extra view option activated.
SD + SD xtra view not possible.
As for ODM... They will probably have very limited content available at first. Will take a few years for them to establish themselves. My advice is, don't wait for ODM. You will wait long for them to become real competition.
What about 2x(2x1110->Power Splitter)->Power Slitter->4 way Splitter? Crazy... But you never know, it just might work.
