I am curious if you can use a webcam with the Slingbox Solo.
I did some searching on these forums and google but I didn't find anything.
I know that there is a USB port on the solo. Would it be possible to hook up a USB webcam to that port.
If not, what are some options for running a webcam with the Solo.
Thank you for your time.

Worcester, MA, United StatesNo, the USB port currently doesn't do anything - it is for future use. And that planned use does not currently include support for webcams, just USB mass storage devices and the planned SlingLink Wireless adapter.
You need a webcam with A/V output which you can connect to the A/V input on the SOLO.

If the webcam needs juice, it'll also feed it. It feeds power to my Asus wireless bridge.
