Virgin Stream Multiple Boxes?

Is it possible to get multiple Virgin Stream Boxes running in one home?

If I move to the new Virgin Stream platform can I buy a second box?

Re: Virgin Stream Multiple Boxes?

It is limited to one per account at the moment. It’s listed on the FAQ page in one of the other threads.

Re: Virgin Stream Multiple Boxes?

Id be careful if i was you.

because im assuming if you get a stream box youll never be able to get a regular virgin cable box or mini box for other rooms.

like they say if youve allready got virgin tv boxes you cant have stream.

there throttling peoples options which,long term,is a bad move.

i worked that out,and im not even a rocket scientist..

The reason you can't "mix" the Stream with Horizon in the UK/Eire is because the sticks can only work on cloud stored recordings. In the rest of LGs operations across Europe you can mix the sticks with our equivalent V360 Mini boxes on the same account. The issue is the broadcasters here won't permit cloud storage of recordings, so this capability, which is also built into SkyQ & the new Sky Glass/Stream puck cannot be used at present.
