Hello Hank and all. 
I have  tried the www.slingbox.com site. I cannot access the information on 
either the Mac or Windows sides with the plugin installed. It appears to be 
imbed flash and I can't access the listings. 

I have been using the SlingBox 500  successfully with the SlingPlayer on my 
phone. The iPhone Version actually reads out the channel list as well as the 
program description. . I had to Label many of the buttons The "power" button 
for the receiver being really important.

On the iPad I get channel numbers but no listing.   I can enter a channel 
number. The only way I have found to stop play is to lock the screen on either 
unit.

Now if memory serves me correctly Jonathan Mosen  was a SlingBox user so 
Jonathan perhaps if I am correct are you still using the beast and if so, how?

In my opinion they have a lot of work to do in terms of making their apps 
accessible out-of-the-box. I can say with certainty  the iPhone definitely 
works if you are willing to take the time to label the buttons. Most of the 
time you can figure out these buttons from the existing labels. I do not use 
the DVR features.


Hope this helps.

As of Monday I will be training at the Seeing Eye so will be looking forward to 
checking my sling player out while there as I miss Canadian news when away.
