since everyone probably has a wide array of STBs connected to their sling, a single thread containing broken keyboard shortcuts might not be a bad idea.

I have my slingbox connect to my DirecTV HR20-700S. When controlling via Windows the spacebar works as the OK/Select button. On Mac, when I roll the mouse over the OK/Select button it says the keyboard shortcut is spacebar, but the spacebar doesn't actually send a command.

I have the same issue with my ReplayTV on the MAC version of SlingPlayer.  Judging from other posts in the forum this is a problem for all Mac users of the Beta.

so the spacebar doesn't work for any devices?

Same here with my TiVo Series 3.  It's pretty annoying because I can  do pretty much everything else I need with keyboard shortcuts, but I need to bring up the SlingRemote just for that one button.

Same thing for me controlling a series 2 DVR.


Also, SlingPlayer toasts my Expose keyboard shortcuts which is rather irritating!

Yes, I use the PC and Mac versions and the shortcuts that work on the PC just "gong" the system bell on the Mac.  Very annoying...
