SlingPlayer - stream video across the internet anywhere (slingmedia)

A piece of hardware known as a slingbox, by slingmedia enables you to stream video from 3 chanel input including HDMI to a PC anywhere in the world via the internet. You also have full control via IR ports from the slingbox. I am using a "8 Mb/s" broadband by sky, but the player is actualy running at 2 Mb/s.

The picture doesnt stream smoothly?

@ihatemuckdjs The video streams very well, the captured video frame rate (as in the recording for this uploaded video) was low, which gives the appearance of a low-frame rate video. The frame rate handling by the slingplayer is very good and flexible too. The default settings for the software changes framerate and slightly video speed to change dependent on flux in internet connection' bitrate. It all works together quite nicely really. I still use it today as a means of viewing sky.

@kirgy9 Thanks, Do you know if flash media encoder would recognise this as a capture device?
