  • Is it still the case that Sling refuse to support the older Slingbox Classic in the app? Posted by GK, UK
  • This is probably the best £18 I've ever spent. I use an iPod Touch around the house the this puppy lets me watch output from my DVR and Apple TV as well as it's own built-in Freeview tuner. The way it dynamically adjusts the speed negating dropouts and lips sync is very clever, not just on my 54G home WiFi but also 3G when I use with my Nokia E51 with a nitty bit of software called Joikuspot that turns my phone into a WiFi hotspot.

    PS - I seem to recall reading the orignal Slingbox can be used but is not technically supported with this app?

  • GK, this has never been the case. I bought this app the day it was first released and it worked right away with my Slingbox Classic.

    Or are you actually talking about support as in helpdesk?
