What is included in the Multiroom Tricolor package: price, connection

For large families, it can be difficult to decide which show, movie or channel to watch next evening. Everyone would like to see their favorite hero or star on TV, but it is impossible to divide the monitor into 2 equal parts. But the provider allows you to connect an additional TV, where another channel will be broadcast. To do this, just activate a special option that expands the capabilities of subscribers. But it’s worth considering that Tricolor’s “Multiroom” includes only additional packages. Basic options require a different approach, which will be discussed below.

Description of service

The Multiroom package on Tricolor is a godsend for subscribers who have two TVs in the house. It expands the capabilities of digital television by allowing you to watch two different channels simultaneously on two TVs. Payment is made for one tariff plan. In 2021, the price for the service is 500 rubles. is provided for a period of 1 year, that is, 365 days, and therefore there is no monthly fee.

If terrestrial television required the connection of an antenna, which had to be connected to each TV (which was very inconvenient and untidy), then with Multiroom antenna wires are no longer needed. Instead of this wired kingdom, there is now a video sender, in the case of Rostelecom it is the Motorola VAP2400 model. The device operates via wireless communication (WiFi), connecting to the home Internet. You don’t have to make any special adjustments to the video sender, since it is equipped with an automatic configuration function. In addition, the entire set of security protocols for wireless networks is built into it, so no one will intercept your signal in order to receive the service for free.

As soon as the set-top box has received a signal from the video sender, multiroom can be considered activated. Motorola's VAP2400 is capable of broadcasting a signal to five TVs in different rooms. To do this, one condition must be met - each TV must have its own set-top box.

Important! To prevent strangers from connecting to your wireless network created by the video sender, it is advisable to immediately install an encrypted data transfer mode. To create an encrypted network, you need to synchronize devices by simply clicking on WPS (the button is located on the back of the device). Synchronization should be carried out after connecting all devices, then they will all receive their secret key.

List of channels in the Multiroom package

Since the “Multiroom” package for Tricolor is not an independent offer, it is pointless to talk about the TV channels that are included in it. There simply aren’t any, the option only increases the use of other packages.

It should be noted that:

• the described service is provided for all additional tariffs and packages, regardless of their content;
• Using the “Unified Multi” package allows you to watch absolutely all channels and programs on several TVs;
• The list of available channels that can be watched on 2 devices when connecting to the “Unified Multi Light” package includes only basic ones; the rest require an additional “Multiroom” connection.

This approach to using the service allows subscribers to save on satellite television, since they have the opportunity to choose which channels they want to watch on a separate TV.

Tariff cost and special conditions

The supply price in 2021 did not change and remained at the level of the previous year. As a result, the connection price is 500 rubles per year of use.

You can make a payment:

• through your personal account on the official website;
• through ATMs and terminals;
• via Internet banking.

A complete list of available methods for paying a subscription fee is presented on the official website of the satellite company, but it is preferable to use a personal account, since this approach eliminates the possibility of making a mistake and guarantees instant crediting of the required amount.

What is included in Multiroom Tricolor?

The offer under consideration from the satellite and digital television provider is the most profitable this year. This is due to the presence of a large number of channels, affordable cost of service and high broadcast quality.

Connecting Multiroom Tricolor TV costs 500 rubles/year. Please note that only those users who take part in the “Exchange Light” and “Start Light” promotions can separately activate the service.

Within the framework of an existing connection, the use of “Cinema halls”, “Online viewing” and “Broadcast control” is available. Users can not only watch television on 2 TVs, but also have the opportunity to record the broadcast and pause the broadcast.

What is “Multiroom” 365 days from Tricolor TV

Those subscribers who do not yet know what Multiroom from Tricolor is should pay special attention to this service. It allows you to watch satellite TV on 2 TVs simultaneously. In this case, the broadcasts will be independent of each other. As a result, if disputes arise, each viewer will be able to calmly turn on their favorite program and will not disturb the other.

It is important to emphasize that the “Unified Multi” and “Unified Multi Light” tariffs allow you to do without the described service, since they already include it in their basic package.

In addition, those wishing to take advantage of the provider’s offer and activate the service should note that they must have a second TV (which is logical), and the existing equipment must support the function and be able to relay the signal to the monitor.

The main advantages of connecting "Multiroom"

When Tricolor TV subscribers are offered to connect to Multiroom, they most often do not see the real benefit of paying for such a service. Let's look at the main advantages of this option:

• using the multiroom function, two devices are connected to one tuner at once - they work simultaneously, but at the same time the flow of information is divided and becomes independent;
• broadcasts do not become worse - the quality and stability of the signal remain the same as when watching one TV;
• the subscription is issued for one year at once, and its cost is paid immediately for all 365 days;
• The multiroom function is easy to connect and configure - you can do everything yourself.

This offer from Tricolor has no significant drawbacks. This function is considered unnecessary only by users who have one TV or do not need to separate channels. The only main disadvantage is that you will need to buy special equipment to set it up and turn it on.

Types of multirooms

About fifteen to twenty years ago, practically the only way to split a television signal was a splitter, which made two splitters out of one stream. But such a solution had certain inconveniences:

• limited wired RF bandwidth;
• lack of support for some “cable” TV;
• problems with the transmission of teletext and other additional television features.

Modern options are capable of serving several consumers over a single communication channel, transmitting different streams of multimedia data to them.

By transmission medium we can distinguish:

• wireless multiroom;
• wired connection.

In the first case, transmission is carried out “over the air”, usually via Wi-Fi or Bluetooth. The specific implementation depends on the manufacturer and model of the device, as well as the capabilities of the receiver. Wired ones use classic cable wiring. They are more reliable and broadcast content almost losslessly, but require wiring, which is not always convenient.

There are also audio multirooms, which can transmit only sound, and audio-video systems, which transmit both visual and audio information.

The most modern projects support voice control, reading news from the Internet, streaming online content and other functions. Often such complexes are included in “smart home” ecosystems or even incorporated into them already at the design stage.

List of channels "United Multi" from Tricolor TV

Currently, customers can view more than 200 channels. At the same time, 40 TV channels are broadcast in HD quality. Please note that high quality image transmission is not available for all TV models and receivers. Check with your provider for this information. The company also offers 48 radio stations for listening, available to subscribers who have subscribed to the “Unified” package.

The available channels can be divided into categories:

• 14 sports.
• 23 educational.
• 33 entertaining.
• 22 all-Russian.
• 11 informational.
• 26 regional.

What is required to connect

If you only plan to become a Tricolor TV subscriber and watch programs on several TVs, there is a chance to solve all the problems with one purchase, so that you don’t have to figure out for a long time how to connect the necessary option. Many set-top boxes do not support this service. Naturally, those who connect for the first time have the opportunity to immediately acquire the optimal set-top box.

The following items are included in the equipment package:

• wall mount;
• plate with a diameter of 0.55 m;
• signal converter;
• GS E501 transmitter and GS C591 client;
• smart card;
• cable, connectors and other connection components.

The operator’s specialists will install the equipment, set everything up, and explain what is included in the service package.

Users who are already connected to Tricolor TV can exchange equipment under a special promotion. You can also get the “Unified” package during the promotion period.

If a new client wants to connect to satellite television, then purchasing equipment will be easier for him, because he will be able to simultaneously buy suitable devices. For users who have a set of old equipment that does not support new functions, Tricolor offers a solution - to take part in a promotion to exchange old equipment for new equipment that supports multiroom functions.

In order to connect two TVs to a set-top box and enjoy different channels at the same time, you will need:

• L-shaped bracket for mounting the plate on the wall;
• a dish for receiving a satellite signal and a special antenna;
• converter with at least two outputs;
• special transmitter and client;
• UPT cables, F and RG type connectors;
• smart card for connection and MultiStar card.

It is better to entrust all installation and configuration of equipment to professional craftsmen, but if you wish, you can do it yourself.

We carry out the settings ourselves

You can activate everything yourself, but only if you have paid for the main package and also have the required amount to pay for multiroom.

If you have already set up satellite television before, there will be no problems with the connection. The whole procedure will take literally five minutes and is divided into two stages:

• on the official portal go to your personal account;
• we set up TVs, and start with the main thing;
• start searching for channels.

After all these steps, it will be possible to watch programs on two different TVs. However, if you are not confident in your abilities, use the services of specialists from Tricolor.

How to disable Multiroom Tricolor TV

Deactivating a service that has become unnecessary will not cause any difficulties for users. To disable the Tricolor TV Multiroom tariff, you will need:

1. log in to the company’s official portal;
2. go to the page with a list of active services;
3. press the button to disable the option.

It is important to note that disconnection does not result in a refund of subscription fees to participants and viewers. It will not be possible to return funds, even if very little time has passed since the previous payment. Before deactivation, you should take this fact into account and think about whether you should rush to cancel the service.

What is the difference between the Tricolor TV “Unified” and “Unified Multi” packages

Before connecting, some clients are interested in what the differences are between the simple “Single” and “Single Multi” packages. The first option lacks the Multiroom service, which allows you to view broadcasts on any device. Additionally, you can connect this service for 500 rubles per year, but subject to activation of the “Lite” offer. And in the “Multi” tariff, the presented service is available free of charge.

Also, the difference between the two packages is the cost. If the offer in question is provided for a subscription fee of 2,000 rubles per year, then the simple “Unified” option involves 1,500 rubles per year.

Tricolor Multiroom package – channel list

The next question that needs to be understood is the possible programs available when connecting to the Tricolor TV Multiroom service, and what channels are included in it. In this matter, an active package of TV channels is of great importance. If the subscriber has activated Unified Multi, absolutely all channels of the main and additional packages will be available on different monitors. When the user has United Multi Light connected, only the TV channels of the main package will be available.

In situations where a subscriber activates the Multiroom option independently, he will have access to absolutely all active TV channels included in the packages he previously paid for. Accordingly, the list of programs that the viewer can view will include everything that the client has connected.

Disabling the Multiroom Tricolor TV service

Each subscriber can disable the Multiroom option independently. This is very easy to do, just follow some guidelines.

1. Log in to the company's personal account.
2. Open the list of services that are connected.
3. By selecting the appropriate item, open an additional window with basic functions.
4. Select shutdown.

If any difficulties arise while performing any actions, it is recommended to immediately contact the company’s employees by calling the hotline. They will conduct a remote consultation on what to do next.

Today, the Multiroom option from the Tricolor TV company will allow you to watch two TVs for 365 days with absolutely two TV channels. The tariff is available to almost every client. Some people connect it immediately with the Unified package. How much the service costs and the features of its connection are listed on the company’s official website. Having read the information in full, the client will be able to make a decision as to whether it is worth connecting the service or not. If the need to connect two TVs has been exhausted, you can turn it off. All actions are performed independently and you only need to spend a few minutes. All you need to do is open your personal account, go to the appropriate section and follow the basic prompts.

How to connect Multiroom Tricolor

To activate the service you will need:

1. make sure that the existing equipment supports the option;
2. activate and pay for “Multiroom” in your personal account;
3. configure the equipment to work with the new function.

It is important to emphasize that the list of receivers that support broadcasting to 2 devices is indicated on the provider’s website. In this case, the basic set of equipment consists of the main set-top box and the client receiver.

Once the steps above are done, users will be left with:

1. connect existing equipment into a single network;
2. set up television and search for TV channels on the main receiver;
3. repeat the procedure on the client set-top box;
4. save the changes made.

If you encounter any difficulties, you should contact the call center operators for help. They will understand the reasons for the difficulties that have arisen and help make the connection.

Benefits of the service

Having understood the features of activating the option, you can take a closer look at the main advantages of the offer.

Clients will like:

• the ability to watch television on 2 devices simultaneously;
• separate broadcasts on each selected TV;
• low subscription cost;
• time during which the service is available (365 days);
• ease of setup and connection of the offer.

There are other positive aspects that will certainly interest subscribers. Although some users may not like the service, since no offer can suit absolutely all people.
