Slingbox Pro Reviews and Price Comparison: Complete System Video Streamer

+ Very easy to setup
Lots of connections

- Not a pretty box.
HDMI cable is long and stiff so needs some space to use.
Not great quality: best to stand well back from the screen.
Occasionally needs to be rebooted as remote PC can not connect: migth be an internet issue tho.

+ Ease of use and easy to set up. Its great as I can watch all my Sky plus programmes while away on business.

- Reviewer left no comment

+ I can watch Sky any where in the house and when I am out.

- It works but it require hight speed broadband when I was overseas it was too slow and I could not control it. The remote control seting does not have the setting for my Digital receiver. When I used the universal remote the function were not working properly.

+ It's the best streaming solution out there right now at this price point.

- The HD add on is a waste of time if you are using this with sky. The original Slingbox is better value for money unless the only way for you to hook up a device is with component cables, such as the Apple TV. To switch from HD to SD inputs on the Slingbox, you have to re-run the setup :(

+ This is my second Sling so obviously I like the product and know that it does what it says it does!. Easy to set up, and having inbuilt Freeview is great. The Freeview works well - not had any problems, my other one does not have this feature.

- No in-built hard drive so still need to hook up to a PVR - this would be an obvious next step now that the Freeview is there. Would be nice to have an IR remote control for the box so that when using it at home it can be used as a normal TV with the laptop (you can get around this by using a wireless mouse). Would be nice if the Sling Catcher was available in the UK. Using this in the UK, you need to be careful about your broadband supplier's usage limits. Only one user can watch it at a time.

+ Oh it's gr8 product, very easy to use & works nicely for me

- only problem is there is no direct hdmi connectivity, you have to go through their adaptor
(hdmi - component ) which is annoying

+ Image quality and low video lag

- mounting - no rack mount option

+ Works well across both home networks and the Internet.
3 seperate AV inputs useful for sources other than the built-in Freeview

- The component video input adapter that is included is a bit awkward for getting Sky+HD connected

+ weel packaged and a good product

- I am using it in Spain and have had some problems with the wifi remote setup

+ Easy set up. Working within 20 minutes.

- None.

+ It is simply a must have for anyone who regulary traveles away from home and hates to miss there fave shows. I have used this to watch BBC HD in lanzarote and the pic was very good. It is an awsome product.

- Changing cannels remotly can be a bit slow if net is not very quick.

+ once configured wonderfull

- would not configure with original router no matter how I tried.
Had to negotiate a new router from my isp
then went straight in

+ English TV whilst oversees

- Intermitent slow feeds

+ I live in Dubai and can watch UK tv in my kitchen here. Its the best thing I have ever bought in my life

- There isnt

+ None! Expensive waste of money and effort

- Only Managed To Get it to work once. Now Given up on it
