No, the channels are set up on the server.

In satellite streaming, the bandwidth is divided in different 
transponders. In each transponder, you can stream up to 15 channels.
With one DVB card, you can only stream channels from ONE transponder.
So if you want to stream 4 channels on the same transponder, you can 
with 1 DVB card but if you want to stream 4 channels on 4 different 
transponders, you will need 4 DVB cards.
