Subject: Sling box Sling Box recording software by Applian Technologies
I own 2 Sling boxes here. Hooking them up is no issue. The Sling Player
software is used to watch/hear your set top box in another place or state
or country. You need to know how to open ports on your router. Port
forwarding. Sling tech support is no longer free. They charge a fee now so
I learned to do all this over 3 years ago. The Sling hardware box I have is
the Classic and a Sling AV unit. When you connect the Sling hardware via
ethernet cable to your router a setup screen comes up. You need to know the
model of your set top box wheter its cable box or satellite box, the
connection type RCA, S-Video, HDMI. You run some tests like to see if the
IR Blaster sensor works so the Slinbox can changed your terminal box
channels. In some parts of this setup you need to use your JAWS cursor. The
recording software is made by Applian Technologies and not by Sling Media
who make the SlingBox. Sling Media is now owned by Echostar who own Dish
Network. I was asked by Applian to test the Sling recording software over 2
years ago and it works with JAWS. It allows you to record the signal that's
coming into your Slingbox hardware box. Can record on the fly (right now)
or by timer (later time). This recording software is called At-Large
Recorder. I haven't used this software for over 8 months now as the
computer it was running died and haven't re-installed it on the other
computer I have. The makers of the Sling box do not like users recording
the tv signal. These recordings can be shared on the internet but the video
files are huge when left at default settings.
If you are nerd and good with JAWS it can be done. Takes time and
patience. Plan ahead for this.
