Slingplayer Now for iPad
Something to be thankful for this Thanksgiving.
I have always been a fan of Slingplayer. As my travel has cut back over the past few years, I’ve found I hadn’t used it as much. However, the release of the $29.99 app for the iPad has me rethinking that habit.
Today I downloaded it for the iPad. I hadn’t updated the Apple Airport Extreme to allow the Slingbox to sling my media, but the new software online made it a snap. Way, way better than only a few years ago where it was rather tedious.
Bottom line, I am slinging media with the best of them. There is still the issue of where to place the Slingbox in line with my cable box. Moving the Slingbox to receive cable directly from the wall, means I don’t get the premium channels. Moving it after the cable box, means when I switch channels on Slingplayer, I switch channels from home.
There should be a better way, but overall, I happily departed with the $29.99 and will be found slinging my media regularly thanks to Slingbox. Heads up, this works with Pro HD and Solo units only.
