Anyone?
I want to do the same thing at my mother's house in Japan so that I can watch Japanese TV in the US...
I have another question. I'm thinking to get Slingbox Pro here in the US and bring it to Japan with me. Does that mean I can watch OTA Digital Broadcasting with Slingbox Pro???

Hi all, I'm a total newbie to Slingbox and I've never even seen one in person, so please bear with me! I want to setup a Slingbox in Japan at my inlaws house so that my wife can watch Japanese TV in the United States. I searched old forum posts but the newest posts related to Japan are over a year old so I wanted to make sure I'm getting the most up to date information.
1. I want to use a DVR in Japan dedicated to the Slingbox so that my wife can watch recorded TV. To be able to control a Japanese DVR, do I need to purchase the Japanese Slingbox (which costs $150+ more than the US SlingBox AV)? Given that my father-in-law (who luckily does telephony installations for a living but does not speak any English) will be setting things up in Japan, would it be best to get the Japanese version so he has all the documentation available in Japanese?
2. Has anyone had any experience using Slingbox with a Japanese DVR? Any recommendations for a compatible DVR?
3. My inlaws don't have cable. Can I still use a Japanese DVR to record TV and then output to the Slingbox?
The best help would be from someone who had experience doing this before, but any suggestions or help would be appreciated!
