## Questions & Answers

**Q: hd viewing**
A: HD viewing is available but you have to buy a slingbox high-def adapter...

**Q: can we maybe get a review that is not from nov. 2010 ??**
A: The Slingbox worked awesome for 6 months, then broke.  Contacted the seller today to see what my options are. But most likely have to deal with slingbox.com.  Will let you know.

**Q: Does the sling box have to be hooked up to the the tv that is connected to the dvr to watch recorded shows from the dvr?  I have a whole house dvr.**
A: If you have a whole house dvr with Directv then, No. You can hook up the slingbox with any of the receivers because they communicate with the dvr as well. I have a whole house dvr and I have two slingbox solo's. I am able to watch any show on either dvr. Keep in mind you don't even have to hook the slingbox up to the tv, just the receiver.

**Q: Will the Slingbox SOLO stream through their app to an iPhone 5?**
A: I think it would but i don't know I still have a iPhone 4 and the app works.

    Does what it's supposed to do
  

*by W***L on Reviewed in the United States on September 23, 2010*

I read the reviews on this item and had to discount most of them for lack of effort and research.  I have a friend who has the unit so I saw it work before I purchased one.  Everything in the box was packed well and complete.  The quick setup guide is very easy to follow.  I suggest reading all of the instructions first, map out your gameplan and then start the install as you have several options.  Before you buy this item figure out how you will connect to the internet.  My house is wired for internet in every room so it was no problem.  I don't suggest wireless as I think it's not reliable enough to operate this unit...it's bandwidth hungry.  My friend uses the plugin devices and they work great.  I first setup the unit with composite cables but decided to switch to component video cables.  I did get a better picture but the composite cables work just fine.  When everything is setup you need to login to your computer and setup up the unit.  I loaded the software on both a PC and a Mac with no issues.  It takes a while to go through the process so give yourself about an hour.  The hardest part was finding the virtual remote that looked like mine.  I had to type in my cable provider as the maker and I was able to find it right away.  I tested the remote buttons and everything works like a champ.  The video was seamless....no chop at all.  If you have a choppy video I would suggest upgrading your router.  As I said, this machine requires major bandwidth so be prepared if you are using slow peripheral equipment.  If you have a DVR I would definitely hook up to that since it gives you the most options for remote watching.IPhone setup: I did purchase the Slingmedia app for my IPhone 3GS.  It's pricey at $29.99.  It installed very easily as well, sound is very good and the picture surprisingly good.  It took a bit of work to get used to the remote buttons.  Many are hidden and you slide your finger left or right to see the rest.  All of the remote buttons are there and they work fine.  The app works great if you have a decent signal and are not moving.  It works OK if you are in a car or moving about but you may have some signal loss.  A window will pop up and it's very easy to reconnect.  Overall very pleased with the app.I did not call customer service so I can't tell you how bad or good they are.  I tend to not call customer service unless I am at a total loss.  Probably all the answers you need are on the forum or somewhere on the internet.  You don't need to be overly techie to set this thing up but you do need to take your time and follow directions.

    Pretty good, but a few gotcha's
  

*by R***D on Reviewed in the United States on February 16, 2009*

I use the slingbox solo to be able to watch TV on my various computers around the house. The picture and sound quality are excellent once you get it running, especially if you have it hooked to a high def cable or satellite box via the component cables. I have a dish network DVR 622 and it works perfectly, when it is running. All the remote control and software functions as advertised. I run it through my 100Mbit local ethernet home network, but the DVR is not near a hard wired Ethernet port, so I put the Slingbox through an ethernet switch that shares the DVR ethernet port and a PC on a home AC wiring ethernet box back to the main hub and router. This all works fine, and the Slingbox transmits at about 3Mb/sec across the network in automatic mode, so it doesn't use anywhere near all the network bandwidth. I would not recommend the high def version of slingbox, the results with this one are good enough, and you can still surf and do email etc while watching slingbox in the corner.So what are the gotchas? Number one, the slingbox mysteriously stops transmitting periodically. This can be anywhere from a few seconds to a couple of minutes. Then it starts up again on its own. You can use Windows task manager (ctrl-alt-del) to monitor network traffic, and you can easily see that slingbox has stopped transmitting. Then it just as suddenly starts back up. This means you miss everything that happened while slingbox was frozen. This can be pretty irritating, as it was for me when this happened during the last minute of a football game.Second gotcha, Slingbox tech support is terrible. When I reported this problem, they blamed it on everything but the slingbox - must be my PC, must be windows, must be my anti-virus, must be my router, my switch, blah blah blah. No, it is clearly a problem that the Slingbox has stopped transmitting. They have a bug in their firmware, but they don't even want to look into it. So if you are not a tech guru, you probably won't have a very good experience getting this going.Luckily, they have a firmware update utility, so if they ever fix this, I will be able to upgrade my slingbox. But until then, I will have to use the DVR rewind feature to watch all the stuff that slingbox skips over when it is frozen. If you don't have a DVR, you will have to get used to it.
