- Does Slingbox.com work with both Windows and Mac? Will it work with my Slingbox?
-
You can set up your Slingbox and watch TV using Slingbox.com with either Windows or Mac computers.
We call these two features Setup on Slingbox.com and Watch on Slingbox.com - they are optimized to work with these Slingbox models:
- Slingbox PRO-HD
- Slingbox PRO
- Slingbox SOLO
If you have an earlier Slingbox model (like the original Slingbox Classic, Slingbox TUNER, or Slingbox AV), you might be able to set up your Slingbox and use Watch on Slingbox.com (if you're using a Windows PC). But these Slingbox models aren't supported with Slingbox.com and haven't been tested with it.
Instead, we recommend that you use the earlier desktop versions of SlingPlayer (either Windows or Mac OS) to watch your TV with these earlier Slingbox models. Unfortunately, we no longer develop that older software, but we still make it available here on our website for the older Slingboxes. Just use the search bar to find it.
