DStv has started testing a new feature that appears to re-enable multiple concurrent streams within the same household, while still blocking password sharing.

MultiChoice has started testing a new feature that will presumably allow DStv subscribers to use its streaming services on multiple devices simultaneously within the same household.

A few months after the measure was first implemented, DStv revealed it was working on a solution to that issue.“Proximity Control” and explained it would rely on DStv devices — like a decoder — to determine the user’s home location. While it’s unclear exactly how the feature works in its current form, it likely aims to detect if a device being used on DStv Stream is connected to the same network as the Home Base device.
