Will higher speed internet let me stream more at once?
Question by who1s269: Will higher speed internet let me stream more at once?
I currently have verizon internet and the best speed I can get is 1.5-3mbps.
When I run my hava player ( kind of like a slingbox ) I cannot stream netflix at the sametime.
I am thiking about switching to cable internet at 10mbps for a price increase ofcourse.
With 10 mbps, will I be able to stream the Hava player, netflix and maybe upload photos or play xbox live all at sametime?
Thanks Guys....so how do I know what speed I will get? I would rather find out it will work before going to all the effort and switching providers!
Could I just call service electric and ask how much it really is or does it change per area the service is going to?

Yeah if you are actually getting that speed, but usually ISPs say "up to" so you could be just barely above what you're getting now.

Also if possible i Would like o do the same thing with my att uverse iptv stb thanks in advance!

Unfortunately it's not possible. The Xbox 360 won't let you stream anything to any device at all.
You can stream what you see on your PC to your iPod touch but that requires installing additional software which an Xbox 360 isn't capable of (well it's OS doesn't allow you to). So the only way maybe through the Slingbox which you plug in the cables to it and stream.

Answer by Timmy K
it depends on what type of tv you have you could set an s-type (standard audio video cords) that go from the serial port on your computer to the AV on your tv. if you have an HD tv you could get an HDMI cord. If your computer has an HDMI output on it than just goes from the hdmi port on your computer to the tv..the tv will search for the output automatically and display whats on your screen on the tv..also if you use the hdmi cord you will have to go into the audio settings on ur computer and change it so that the hdmi will play the volume out of the tv otherwise it will play volume out of your computer

Can I stream content from my computer to my TV?
Question by samfishx: Can I stream content from my computer to my TV?
I know that Apple is releasing the AppleTV sometimes next month, but as far as I know, it runs off Quicktime/iTunes...which means that there is no (easy) way to switch language tracks.
I have a lot of movies and TV shows on my computer (I'm running OS X) and I'd love to be able to watch them on my TV, rather than on my monitor.
I'm also not interested in something like Windows Media Center PCs, as that is too complicated for what I want to do. I'm looking for something simple and requires minimal effort to access.
I've seen things like Slingbox but, near as I can tell, that does the opposite of what I want.
Aside from AppleTV, are there any devices out there that enable me to send media from my computer's hard drive to be viewed on my screen?

Answer by blndchik
I do this with my Tivo. Probably not what you are looking for.............. I copy all the DVDs I get via Netflix to my PC so I can watch them whenever. I use the Tivo menu to access my harddrive to play the movies.
I also do this with my video iPod with pod casts.

Question by Dwight Kong: I would like to take a trip and stream the video for my friends live. How can I accomplish this?
I figure if Slingbox does it, why can't Eye. (speaking of "eye" the eye-fi card has to record then upload and wouldn't be "streamed" or live.)

If you have an iPhone or an Android phone (maybe some other smart phones too), you can use the Qik app to stream video live from your phone. http://qik.com/

Answer by Boogie
Slingbox goes from TV to PC... but SlingCatcher (same company) will do what you are asking.
There are a few others, Apple TV, PS3, TiVo.... I am not sure if ones like Roku can tranmit PC video.
You can always get a video card that allows you to connect directly to the TV ...
and don't hate on the XBox, you can get it for a resonable price now and it also allows for streaming Netflix movies.
I also know that FIOS allows streaming of pic and music with their Multimedia STB (not sure about video).
There are a lot of options. Decided what you want as well.
PS3 gives you a game and bluray player.
Apple TV is expensive for what it does.
TiVo requires subscriptions.
There are a lot of choices out there.

Do I need a TV License if I use a Slingbox in the United States, but stream the video to my computer in the UK
Question by dr j: Do I need a TV License if I use a Slingbox in the United States, but stream the video to my computer in the UK
I am living in the United Kingdom for the next year, and am not planning on buying a TV, but wanted to use a Slingbox installed at my house in the United States to watch tv here on my computer.
The television would be from the US, not the UK, so I am wondering whether or not I would need a TV License or not.
Thank you.
The licensing website says if the video is streamed at the same time its played live on a television, then you need a license. The only difference is, this stream is from the United States, so does anyone know if I would need one?

Is it possible to stream TV from my DVR or Slingbox to another TV in the house?
Question by Don H: Is it possible to stream TV from my DVR or Slingbox to another TV in the house?
I currently have a Slingbox Solo hooked up to my Dish DVR and my Netgear wireless router. I have a bedroom TV that is too far away to run any sort of hard wire (RF, component etc.) but is within range of my 802.11G router. Is there a way to get a signal from my Slingbox or DVR to the remote TV wirelessly? HD would be nice but SD is better than nothing!
