User Reviews for Sling Media Slingbox

Reviewed by: ycc971

Duration of ownership:

Strengths: easy to setup. have multiple inputs

Weaknesses: none.

Overall Evaluation: I am very satisfied with the performance of this slingbox. Unlike the new version, Slingbox tuner or Slingbox TV, this classic version has three video source input. NTSC Cable input, S-Video, and AV-in. You can use AV-input to connect the home secure cam/CCD, so you can monitor the place while you are out of home. This is a great product.

Duration of ownership:

Strengths: Innovative technology, good stream quality, easy to link connect remotely

Weaknesses: Can be difficult to configure network if you have a complicated dual-network router system at home

Overall Evaluation: The Slingbox is an amazing, must have device for all television and DVR lovers. It allows you to "place shift" your television signal so that you can watch it anywhere you have a broadband Internet connection. The best part about it is that the product truly meets up to its marketing claims. The Slingbox can be difficult to install if you have MORE than one network router in your house, but otherwise, its as easy as suggested. Streaming video quality is great. Control of popular cable boxes and DVR's (both TIVO and ReplayTV) is seamless. All necessary components are also included in the box, such as cables and IR emitters for controlling your cable box and DVR's. Suggested improvements: (1) continue to improve video stream quality, (2) deliver multi-channel stereo/surround audio, and (3) improve resolution and screen size capabilities over time.
