    Lads, looking for a little info, with the Horizon box is possible to watch say BBC 1 on television and say ITV in another room on a Laptop ? and if so surely there would be no need for MultiRoom as you could go from most laptops to TV via HDMI now adays.
    Also I assume cableing from the Horizon Box would sort out the WiFi problems that some people here seem to have.
    Thanks
    Dave

    You can watch a subset of the UPC channels on the Horizon website, but only about 40 channels. I don't know if there's any DRM restriction which would prevent the video out working while viewing these videos.

    You don't need to have a horizon box to use the horizon.tv online service. Any myupc account works fine. The online service just needs a UPC connection to work.

    I've even noticed there is a couple of minutes time difference between the same channel on the cable box versus an Iphone/Ipad so some part of the infrastructure to deliver over the app must be introducing some lag.
