I have a slingbox pro.  I live in Morocco and my slingbox is in Nashville.  I have a moxi dvr.  I cannot get it to consistently change channels.  We've upgraded our internet here in Morocco and upgraded our router in Nashville.  Someone from the Geek Squad at Best Buy came out to install to new router.  He said there have been problems with the Moxi DVR and that I should buy a TiVO.  Can anyone help me figure out how to use my Moxi DVR?

The Slingplayer 2.0 beta code now has codes for the Moxi BMC9012 and BMC9022 under "Standalone DVRs". While not perfect, I have it working acceptably (for me) well. Don't ask me why this placement works given the location of the IR receiver on the Moxi (to the right/top of the clock??), but this placement works (so far) on about 80% of Moxi 9012 remote control transactions. One IR transmitter mounted on the top of the Moxi, above the ":" in the clock. The other in the same location on the bottom of the Moxi. extended over the faceplate just enough so there is no "tape" showing on the transmitter mount. Other more "logical placements" just didn't work consistently for me. Location is EXTREMELY sensitive to commands working, and like I said, every 5th command or so I have to repeat ... but good enough. Let's hope this improves in the final release of the 2.0 Slingplayer.
