Good think HDCP encryption was cracked this week, no?
ATTENTION HOLLYWOOD: Fair Use is *our legal right* (see Sony v Universal; “The Betamax Case”. We will not permit you to deprive us of it, just because you want to make Even More Money.
The Internet interprets censorship — and Malignant Customer Control Techniques — as damage, and routes around them.

I do the easy thing and just don’t own a TV, there’s nothing on and news on TV is all oversimplified partisan infotainment anyway.
November 7th, 2010 - 13:39
I prefer to use the TPB input, myself.
November 7th, 2010 - 13:49
It’s not like this crap would not be cracked. It would NOT hinder piracy in any way.

@layinlow64 And that gives them the right to control our A/V equipment… how?

I hardly think that Yahtzee was the _originator_ of intarwebs humor or l33t5p3a|<. I recognize, among other things, various references to the styles generally thought to originate with the lolcats and somethingawful communities. There are no stick figures or pointy-eared aliens. But I’m glad to see that you’re concerned with SOC!

the mpaa owns their movies and how the content is distributed

Hey Public Knowledge guys, record your audio in a room with less background noise! kthnxbye.
November 7th, 2010 - 16:12
Ahhh MPAA, when will you learn.
Consumers like convenience. We also really REALLY hate DRM. Why do you think more and more of us are going online to get our movie fix? (Oh that’s right, it’s because we’re all a bunch of filthy freeloaders isn’t it).
So instead of listening and adapting, what do you do? Come up with new ways of punishing the slowly but surely shrinking audience still supporting your old way of doing business.
Bravo. You guys should give yourselves an Oscar for a change.
November 7th, 2010 - 16:54
Is this the work of The Escapist and Ben “Yahtzee” Croshaw? Or is this just someone ripping off that style? Oh and the MPAA is wrong. I’ll file a compliant with the FCC.

November 7th, 2010 - 18:02

You have got to be kidding me. This is complete crap, and the FCC better not let this happen … otherwise you can bet that there will be an outrage.

November 7th, 2010 - 21:01
@kupkrazee obviously you should have read my comment. first it’s 4 months old.i know that you need a box. some might not so he should say that and i was commenting on the reviews they were recieving at the time. to choose carefully and make sure they are getting the best one they can. not that it’s not a good product because it’s awesome as long they support it
November 7th, 2010 - 21:24
@eturnald right when implied you didn’t know you needed the slingplayer box for this is where i stopped reading what you wrote because it’s obvious you don’t understand what slingbox is? of course you need the slingbox itself.
November 7th, 2010 - 21:36
@RomeoValentino how much total did u spend on it? the app, plus the box? anything else you bought? how does it work anyways? do you have to be close to the box? meaning, do you have to be in the house? or can you be anywhere?
November 7th, 2010 - 21:56

November 7th, 2010 - 22:12
@14tripin It’s more stable fool
November 7th, 2010 - 22:46
I would like a link for the stand. The kickstand is cool, but you if are pushing on the phone like he is doing in the video you would have to hold the phone to prevent it from moving.
Send the link MisterSling.

November 8th, 2010 - 07:38
I just got motorola droid x.There is no slingplayer mobile app on this device. Help please!
November 8th, 2010 - 08:32
@bippi79 Thanks, I found the problem. Mine is a little different since the slingbox is built into my Dish receiver. The widescreen on the phone will not work unless my TV is turned off. I believe this is due to if the TV is on, it’s sending the only HD signal/source to it instead and not the phone. Something like that.
