- Which countries are supported?
-
SlingPlayer 2.0 for Windows is currently only available for customers whose Slingbox is installed in the United States or Canada. Customers elsewhere should continue to use SlingPlayer 1.5 for Windows.
- Can I use SlingPlayer 2.0 for Windows outside of the United States and Canada?
-
If you are outside of the United States and Canada, but are accessing a Slingbox located within the U.S. or Canada, then all the features in SlingPlayer 2.0 for Windows will function properly.
Note: the SlingPlayer Guide display is based on on your computer's internal clock ... that is, the computer that you're using to watch your TV. If this computer is set to a different time zone than your clocks at home, SlingPlayer Guide displays time that is off by the difference between your home time zone and the one that you're currently in. If you're unsure how to compensate for this, temporarily change your computer's time zone back to your home zone to correct this.
- What will happen to my Favorites when I upgrade?
- Your Channel Favorites will get converted into the new SlingPlayer 2.0 format. Command Favorites have been replaced and improved upon by the set of new features: the SlingPlayer Guide and Live Video Buffer. For example, you’ll be able to pause live TV with a single click. Or change channels by clicking directly on a program listing. There's no longer a need to create special "shortcut" icons to manage these common tasks.
- Does SlingPlayer 2.0 for Windows support streaming in HD?
-
SlingPlayer 2.0 for Windows streams in HD if you are connected to a Slingbox PRO-HD or Slingbox SOLO, are watching HD content, and the bandwidth is sufficient.
