Stream of consciousness
It all comes together once you start up the SlingPlayer application. The Slingbox compresses your television source (or other audio/video content) making it available
digitally through your in-home router. Watch it in another room or even in the backyard.
It gets more impressive when you venture outside of your home-network range. The quality of over-the-Internet streaming is dependant on what’s between your
home television source and your computer a few miles, or a few thousand miles, away.
But that’s not a big challenge for SlingStream™, the on-board streaming technology. SlingStream continually monitors the end-to-end Internet bandwidth, making on
the spot adjustments to provide a constant video stream. It automatically adjusts the video stream to work within the bandwidth that is available at any given time.
Where will you watch your TV?
Think of all the places you can now watch your TV:
In the kitchen while preparing a meal or cleaning up the mess.
In the living room while the kids are watching Finding Nemo…for the 37th time. You’re “baby sitting” with the game playing on your laptop.
Barbecuing in the backyard. Wipe the teriyaki sauce off your fingers before using the on-screen remote.
Surfing the Web or maybe even writing an e-mail.
On a business trip and you’re not interested in the local news.
Or, just relaxing in your favorite chair...or throne.
Where you watch your TV is up to you!
