BT TV 3rd Box

[MadJim]

Has anyone tried a 3rd box? Also anyone tried using to pro recordable boxes?

[MadJim]

Really want to know if anyone tested this and if anyone tried using two pro recordable boxes

Why are you so desparate to know experience of something you've been told isn't possible? 

FWIW if you connect more than 2 boxes & try to watch a subscription channel you get a message advising you can't as have 2 boxes in use already

As per @garybs29 , you had been told a number of times on various threads that you can buy Extra Box, swap the Mini for another recording box and it works fine as long as you have fast enough broadband. I have done so, as have others.

You cannot use more than 2 boxes of any flavour currently.

You can use as many boxes as you want , just that only 2 can receive the BT TV subscription channels either via aerial or IP modes.

Any boxes over the 2 can be used as normal Freeview recording boxes.

You can have as many boxes connected as you want, but only 2 can be active at a time. If you try to use subscription services on another box, it'll prompt you to "reset" (i.e. it'll remove the oldest box, and activate the current one). You can do this as often as you want.
