Multiple receivers

There should be HDMI splitters that work, may need 4k ones.

I have 2 people and TV's in every room. I solved the issue several ways with sending the signal via a dedicated streamer (over my home network) and back-feeding my old coax with a channel 3 modulator.

Your issue will be remote control. If your rooms are close, the remote in RF mode will usually work from several rooms. I do this and also IR repeaters.

I have 7 TVs in different rooms and only 2 people, so having 7 receivers/clients made no sense to me.

Hello @snowman7290, looking for alternative options to enjoy the content on all your TVs is great. However, we charge most homes with more than one receiver $7/month. TV Access fees allow the programming to appear on any additional TV where there are active receivers, clients, or RVU connections in your home. We'll send you a DM to gather more information about your account. Gabriela, DIRECTV Community Specialist

While it is $7 for each additional TV, that is for a traditional approved setup. Since splitting means TVs are on the same channel and is done after the fact, you only pay for the number of TVs authorized by receiver/clients. Be aware this usually means DirecTV techs will not service a custom setup like that.

Depends if you are on the legacy account system or the new one for more receivers. The new system has a hard cap of 8 devices. What are the models of each reciever you have now?

If you go the splitting route, you will need a powered HDMI splitter that supports HDCP 2.2 and preferably HDMI 2.0 as well.
