DStv Launches A New Streaming Decoder That Does Not Require A Satellite Dish

DSTV MultiChoice had launched a new DSTV Streama which allows customers to view content without a satellite dish.

It will only need an active subscription and internet to start streaming. Supported apps besides DStv include Mulitchoice’s own Showmax, YouTube, Joox, and other yet to be mentioned services.

Customers will need to have a DSTV account to log in so that they can use the newly launched DSTV Streama without any subscriptions.

The DStv Streama runs on the RDK platform and supports internet connections via WiFi and an ethernet cable. The RDK platform is an operator-tier platform for broadband, TV, and IoT devices designed and operated by a collective of TV operators.

The DStv Streama is capable of handling 4K content but the availability of this content is subject to services one is subscribed on top of having a 4K enabled TV set. It should be noted that none of Multichoice’s owned services support 4K, maybe something might change with the newly launched OTT DStv Service.
