If you’ve ever been to a sports bar, you know how fun it is to keep an eye on multiple games at once. Now you can get the same effect at home.
Picture in picture is cool, but this is even better. Four shows on one screen, at the same time. All you have to do is choose your favorite theme, or make your own.
We paid a visit to a guy that loves his television. Caleb aka Stuntman has six U-verse boxes and a micro-cell just so he has perfect reception. When people come to see his setup they usually think its a newsroom.
You can find Caleb playing video games on one TV and keeping up with the news on the other, using his favorite feature, Multiview.
“Multiview is an innovative feature that allows you to follow 4 shows at the same time,” explains Sean Elmi of AT&T U-verse.
While you’d normally need a set up of multiple TV’s to do that, U-verse has built the feature right into their boxes.
If we do the math Caleb could have 24 channels going at any given time with Multiview. The TV junkie wishes he could get more.
“It’s super easy to do, it comes with three pre-programmed Multiviews already - kids, sports, and news. You can go in and modify those and even build your own” says Elmi.
We know Caleb likes the News Multiview; but he hadn’t set up his personal one. I challenged him to create his own.
Once he has his four channels of choice, swapping between the shows is a cinch. Since U-verse is delivered all digital over a fiber optic network, you’ve never seen a channel change this fast!
“It’s just instant, there’s no lag or anything like that,” says Caleb.
Keeping up with it all has never been this easy. “That was the idea, we wanted to bring the sports bar like feel into the home,” says Elmi.
Did I mention the marriage saving potential here? Think about it, you want to keep an eye on the red carpet while he wants to watch the big game. Now you can.
