  • Nearly as easy to use as a TV. Video quality improved over previous version. Adapts to available bandwidth to maximize video quality. Connects to up to four home-theater components. No monthly fee.
  • Home uplink speed and Internet congestion can limit your video quality during remote viewing. Works only with Windows handhelds and PCs. HD connection improves video quality only if you watch on your home network. Cant pause or store programs unless you h...
  • The place-shifting Slingbox Pro is a great way—especially for DVR users—to watch a virtual version of your home television on PCs or Windows Mobile devices....

  • Streams home A/V to any broadband-connected Mac, Windows PC, Windows Mobile, or Palm Treo 700p device in the world; accepts HD video (with optional dongle); can accept as many as four A/V inputs (composite, S-Video, RF, and component); no host PC or mo...
  • Component-video adapter and cellphone/PDA viewing software costs extra; no built-in wireless networking support; monopolizes the attached device during viewing; Palm viewing software only works on Treo 700p.
  • While its ability to accept multiple sources and optional HD is overkill for most users, the more-expensive Slingbox Pro makes sense for hardcore Slingers with gobs of video gear. Price range: $228.00 - $247.00 See all products in the Sling Media Sling...

  • Check the list of other Slingbox models — for example, if you're plugging in only one source, you may be better going with the Slingbox Solo. Otherwise this is a no-brainer. The Slingbox Pro is superb technology, which we reckon AV tech fans will be rushi...

  • Abstract:  Like TiVo, Slingbox is one of those amazing video products that Americans have enjoyed for years but has never officially made it to Australia until now. Just as TiVo saw time-shifting become mainstream, Slingbox delivers place-shifting to the masses -...

  • Abstract:  El Slingbox te permite ver tu televisión desde cualquier lugar a través de una conexión a Internet de alta definición, con el software Sling Player de la compañía. Cuando llegó al mercado en 2005 el software sólo estaba disponible para Windows XP, aña...

  Published: 2010-04-02, review by: clubic.com

  • Concept original, Idéal pour les chaines payantes, Qualité de finition du matériel, et de la partie logicielle
  • Déconseillé pour les novices, En HD, pas de HDMI ni d'HDCP, Prix + Prix des applications mobiles, Esthétique discutable / pas de Wi-Fi, Apprentissage IR en bêta pour l'instant
  • La Slingbox est un appareil intéressant à plus d'un titre, mais avant de se lancer dans l'aventure, il est préférable de s'assurer que l'on dispose d'un certain nombre de prérequis. Tout d'abord, comme on peut s'en douter, le concept repose principalement...

  • Streaming su rete locale e Internet, buona qualità audio/video, possibilità di visualizzare i programmi su smartphone, fino a quattro segnali in ingresso, possibilità di comandare i dispositivi da remoto, semplice installazione e utilizzo.
  • Non è possibile registrare il segnale ricevuto su PC, audio solo stereo, solo due trasmettitori IR, manualistica insufficiente.

  • Abstract:  Det kan suga rätt hårt att behöva resa bort, exempelvis när du verkligen behöver dina dyrt införskaffade sportkanaler. Men med en Slingbox hemma och en dator i bagaget är det inga problem, du kommer åt allting. ...
