I am thinking that the TV has inbuilt tuner for BS/CS. I was wondering if the same will be possible with Sling box. My plan for setup is BS Antenna --> Sling box (Model not yet fixed) --> Get BS/CS and 6 National channels. I am sure that the 6 national channels will work without issue. Not sure about BS/CS Anyone with experience with similar setup ? Appreciate any help I can get.

Tech support say they will consider adding as its a new device but need it asap as off to OZ soon.

It represents (or looks like) a 3100 (non-PVR) remote. Thanks.

I'm going to be moving out of town for four months. I'm looking for a way to be able to stream from my TiVo to my laptop while I'm gone. It seems that the Slingbox may be the proper tool for this but I do have a few questions: Will I be able to 'manipulate' my TiVo over the Slingbox interface across the internet? By 'manipulate' I mean things like deleting programs I have watched, setting up recordings, etc. I've been aware of the Slingbox product since it's introduction (I'm kind of a geek), but having read the reviews that people have posted at places like Amazon, and others, I'm tremendously concerned about the reliability of the product. I'm going to be away for months and have read many stories about having to power cycle the device regularly. That having been said....often the people who complain the loudest are the ones who know the least. That's why I'm here. You folks use these things day in and day out. Is it worth the money? Do they work? Are my expectations for how the Slingox will function reasonable? Thanks so much for...

Open Slingbox and get message that says "Another instance of SlingBox Setup Assistant or Sling Player is already running". It won't open. Have tried everything to get into the box, even uninstalled and installed again, can't even do that again. Nothing showing on Windows Task Manager as running. Anyone with ideas?

I am slinging from there and just recently had a few channels jumbled up. For instance, channel 35 was tuning in TNT (channel 34) when it is supposed to be Discovery, channel 63 was tuning in FOOD (channel 62) when it is supposed to be SCIFI. I was also getting some kind of shopping channel on 5, etc. I also lost my free digital channels - 6.1, 8.1, 10.1, etc. I was able to get the analog channels back, but still have not gotten my digital ones in. I am wondering if COX is f-ing with their lineup without telling anyone. Anyone else have this issue or know if COX is changing?

I love the idea of Sling, but the usefulness is leaving much to be desired. I used to tell people they should get one, but now I tell them not to bother unless it currently does what they need, because it will not improve in MANY years.
