They do what you need them to do.Thanks I'm going to stick it in a media cupboard and use a fire stick or box (I have plenty I don't know why) running kodi 17 in some rooms . That link back via the enigma 2 pvr client kodi 17 has made quite simple even my other half could use it.
So two lines with multi room, are these boxes any good?
Sounds like a good set up ;-)Might not be fire sticks more like fire TVs my new house has been wired with cat 6 everywhere. So I thought stick a quad tuner box in my media cupboard and use kodi to stream down my lan
If you're watching 4 different channels on 4 different boxes it needs 4 different codewords to clear the channels regardless of the ip.I always thought it was one box one line for sky/cable
As the box has one IP address
As the decoding is in your box and it only needs the code to be brought in the every few seconds.
It doesn't send for the code twice as much if your watching twice as much
But I'm no pro and that's my under standing

I have run many different sat lines on my box off many different providers and one line works just fine for a 4 sat quad tuner,as its just one box,The multiroom is for more than one box and believe me i have been using enigma boxes for many yearsBoth wrong.
It depends how many Connections your provider offers.
For example a large cache server will offer 3 Connections
Old school servers might only offer 1 Connection
Some offer two Connections
So it's a minimum of two lines and a maximum of 4 to clear all tuners (you can have more than 4 lines of wanted to)
Always best to ask your provider
1. How many Connections
2. For use only in one receiver or more than one receiver.
