In Topic: What's this forum about/help with watching US tv...

You have to get the information of SOmeone else Slingbox who wants to share, most of them looks for something in exhange, some just some money to rent their signal to anybody (including people who don't own a slingbox).

Is that a bit clearer? :)

Hi Richie,

About your technical question, the answer is simple, you just don't put it remotable while you watch then nobody can change channel while you watch TV.

Hi,
I m totally new to this topic so please forgive my stupid question.
I tried to understand how the slingbox theme works. All I want is to receive US Television in germany (german citizen) on my PC and I am willing to pay for it.
Do I need a slingbox for receiving US-Television or can I cover this with the Slingplayer on my PC?
As I understand this I must find anyone who offers me a stream to a slingbox in the USA and I can receive it on my PC with this slingplayer?

Is it legal to pay anyone in the USA who offers his slingbox for sharing on my PC and do I really need a slingbox when I have the slingplayer on my PC?

Soo if you want to pay for USTV you have only Slingplayer installed on your computer, you don't need anything else. If you want to install yourself a slingbox, is to put in your family or friend's home in the USA. That's why people rent a slingbox to people who wants to share.

About legality well, there's no rules in the code that said it's not allowed to.

Soo the Slingplayer is stand alone of the slingbox, you can use it without owning a slingbox.

You need a Slingbox in your home install and then the software or a slingcatcher in your other home :)
