What Hi-Fi? Sound and Vision Five Stars
December 2006
    "Not sure what a location-free server is? This is the basic premise: plug the Slingbox into your home system, load some software on to your laptop, and you can watch television anywhere in the world. You can watch and control set-top-boxes, PVRs , and DVD recorders, or simply access the analogue/digital TV tuner built into the Slingbox's teeny chassis - and the quality is great. How's that for video-on-demand."

    "No need to miss your favourite TV programmes while you're on holiday or abroad on a business trip. The Slingbox is a clever device which plugs into any video source...and can then be connected to the internet to stream video to a PC or laptop whatever the location.

What's more, the Slingbox also allows you to take control of your video source remotely, browsing through the EPG or setting the timer while you're out."
 
The amazing Slingbox tucks away discretely with your AV system, relaying two video and one audio input to any internet connection in the world! You can change channels, fast-forward and duplicate remote control functions through the intuitive user-interface. Use your laptop and an Internet connection to enjoy the match, set the timer or checking on your CCTV from a broadband or wifi connection on the other side of the world - or from any PC on your local network!
