    1. You only need to activate the decoder once, If the gotv decoder has been activated already 3 years ago, then what you need to change language is in the SETTINGS page.

    2. If you need Agent ID, you will need to enroll with Multichoice and complete the registration process. Visit the nearest Multichoice office to enroll.
