yes, Israel’s satellite television provider, and the HomeGrid Forum, have reveraled that yes is using HomePNA home networking technology to power yes.Multiroom, its new whole-home DVR offering.

yes.Multiroom allows users to view a movie recorded on a yesMax Total  DVR in any room of the house.  Customers can start watching a movie in one room, pause it and continue watching in another. Along with yes.Multiroom, yes has introduced a new user interface incorporating a “personal viewing recommendation engine.”
