I just read the article about the HDPVR and there it says that you can use your normal dualview twin LNB and just add a splitter to split it into 4 to work on the new PVR. So now my question is, would it be possible to split a single LNB into 2 to accommodate a dualview decoder? The reason I ask is because I live in a complex and we only get 1 dstv wire to our place. Could anybody with some knowledge about this please explain if this is feasable?

No, the pvr needs to have access to both vertical and horizontal polarisations at the same time and you can only get this from having 2 lnb's (or a twin lnb).
