Slingbox™
What if you were able to watch live television wherever you go? The
World Series in your cube. MSNBC breaking news at the coffeeshop. Your
local news station halfway around the world. Lost in Hawaii. Emeril Live
in your kitchen.
Now what if we told you that you could do that without having to lug a
television, a cable box, a satellite dish, or a subscription along with
you? In fact, you don’t need anything besides your laptop (which is
attached to your hip already).
That’s because back home, you have a Slingbox sitting on top of your
television. The simple silver device looks suspiciously like a gigantic
chocolate bar, but the technology inside is truly sweet. This
award-winning gadget is a breakthrough device that enables you to watch
and control your living room television programming from anywhere by
turning any Internet-connected laptop, desktop, PDA, or smartphone into
a personal television.
With a wave of a virtual magic wand, Slingbox placeshifts the television
signal from your source device to your PC – located at home or 3,000
miles away – via the Internet. Thanks to the Slingbox, you can enjoy
your home TV programming wherever you are – the office, a hotel room,
your garden, even the bathroom – anywhere there is an Internet
connection. You truly can watch and control your television anytime,
anywhere – the power is in your hands.
The SlingPlayer software works hand-in-hand with the hardware in the
Slingbox to allow you to watch and control your TV on your computer.
SlingRemote™ in SlingPlayer gives you full control over virtually any
A/V device, from changing channels and viewing recorded content to
fast-forwarding or setting up a season pass. So while your TV and
Slingbox sit at home, you can be out and about with SlingPlayer.
We believe that watching your TV is about, well, you. That’s why your
remote control is your own, your favorite channels are your own, and
your video signal is just the way you like it.
Best of all, your Slingbox works seamlessly with your existing home
theater setup and PC technologies – no new cables required!
We support literally thousands of devices. Slingbox is compatible with
TiVo's DVR, Comcast's Motorola DVR, Replay TV, Ultimate TV, DISH,
DirecTV, and more. Whatever you’ve got, we’re sure the Slingbox can
handle it! |
