MRV New reciever

[SNT]

I currently have multi room viewing with 2 HDDVRs and 1 standard DVR without a DECA. Everything works as it should. If I were to add another compatible receiver, would it automatically be in the MRV setup? Meaning seeing the other receivers etc.

Thanks

yes.

yes.

Cool, thanks.

I wasn't sure if the lack of a DECA would cause an issue.

The new receiver would have to be DECA compatible as you imply that your current receivers are.
The H/HR23s have DECA built in. The others will require a DECA adapter.

I did not imply that. I said that I do NOT have a DECA. My MRV is setup using only my LAN. Being that this is the case, I wanted to know if I could hook a new receiver to the network and be apart of the MRV automatically. i.e I plug it in and I can see and view the other receivers and vice versa.

Yes, you can just connect it to your network.
When you said "I currently have multi room viewing with 2 HDDVRs and 1 standard DVR without a DECA.", This implied to me that the other DVRs did have DECA. A comma after DVR would have helped me understand.

I thought it was the H/HR24s that have the DECAs built in. The H/HR23s have the bbcs built in.

Yup, I see how it can be read that way. My bad. Thanks for the response.

Right you are.
I was thinking BBCs when I wrote that.
