How to watch now tv box on 2 televisions

I have just ordered a now tv box and will be hooking it up to my tv in bedroom. Is it possible to watch content in the other tv downstairs at same time? Otherwise using 2 devices
How would this work. Would you need to take remote downstairs to use?
Thanks. A bit new to this. Getting movies for £15 for 6 months so giving it a go.

The NowTV service has a device Limit of 4 and a streaming to devices limit of 2 at the same time...

This 2 devices means any 2 of those 4 including the PC you can play content on.

 

If you want Dual TVs running seperate films on NowTV. that requires a second box/device.

If you want a HDTV in the other room to display the same film for the cheapest way, that requires a HDMI splitter and a long second HDMI cable... To send the IR remote signals to another room requires a IR reciever and IR blaster set up...

 

All these extra things can be purchased from electronics retailers...

Its just cheaper to get another cloned Ruko NowTV box.. for £9.99 others allready got 3 boxes... but can only watch nowTV on 2 at the same time..

As GraphiteGB says, just buy another box rather than messing around with HDMI splitters etc etc. You can use the two boxes with the same account.

So one account will do two boxes. Thought I would have to subsribe twice. This sounds good.

Hi Tjay4,

 

Thanks for getting in contact.

 

This error code means you have used the maximum number of device changes for this 30 day period and will need to wait for it to reset to use the next box. This is something that has been imposed by Sky for the time being, that we have to work with.

Hi Baloon123.

 

Thanks for posting.

 

You can use your account on up to 4 devices. You can watch on up to 2 at the same time.

 

Currently the only Smart TV's we support is LG. You can find the NOW TV app under Premium Apps on your LG Smart TV, if you can't see this it may not be supported on that model. 

 

Thanks
