Quick demo video of the Slingcatcher

Category
As many of you that read this blog know, I gave up my cable TV a few months back and a few years ago I also got a great device called the slingbox.

This week I got a new companion to the slingbox, the slingcatcher.  The Slingcatcher is purely a device for watching it is not a server, it is purely a client.  Slingcatcher lets me pick a slingbox and watch on my regular TV, it comes with a remote.  Using it I can quickly switch between a slingbox I have access to in the UK and a few slingboxes friends have given me access to in the US.

Here's a quick video of how it looks when streaming from the sling in the UK and the Sling in the US.  Pretty cool stuff. A little tricky holding the remote, looking at the screen trying to contol the slingcatcher with a remote at an awkward angle.

Just trying to set them up now & seeing if they work over the Devolo home power network. Hopefully giving my brother is Oz the chance to watch loads of UK TV on my PVR - v cool.Emoticon
