Hi, Can i use my Slingbox sited in Bulgaria to sling a signal to be picked up in another location in Bulgaria. I see that Bulgaria is not listed in the list of countries in the set up menu. Thanks
I don't know if you can use it, but if Bulgaria is not listed just pick another country, the only thing that I would concern in your palce is the color format, I don't know if Slingbox work on SECAM mode, which is the format of Bulgarian television.

The biggest issue would probably be if it will control your cable box or whatever.
Slinging Tivo Series 2, Tivo HD, and TW cable from a Pro. Slinging Tivo HD from a Solo, Slinging Humax DRT800, and TW cable from a Classic to Sprint Mogul, AT&T SX66, N62, 8525, and Dell Inspiron 8600 with Sprint EVDO over Windstream DSL.

So the Slingbox PAL version should be used there...
Answer:
I just set up a Slingbox PRO in tuner-only mode in Bulgaria (Varna). It works, however my cable probider, CableBulgaria uses PAL B/G for some channels and PAL D/K for others. As a result, there is no sound on some channels.
Question:
Selecting a country form the provided list makes the Slingbox work in one mode only (i.e. Czech Republic yields PAL D/K, India selects PAL B/G). Is there a way to tell the Slingbox to use a specific system for certain channels, or make it auto detect the system when changing channels, the same way most regular TVs work?
