I put it on my Touch and it works great! No more stuttering, split screens and pauses. There's a new GDI rendering option that was checked by default on my phone which, I'm assuming, is the reason it works correctly now...no Direct Draw. Should have the same results on the Mogul since both phones have the same HTC flaw. Thanks Sling!

My coworker and I just put it on our Moguls and the streaming seems much better. No "blockiness" watching basketball or motorcycle racing. I also noticed better control functionality when using the channel guide on my dvr.

There is also a Audio/Video sync offset that is adjustable.

Awesome! I cant say its 100% stutter free but it is a lot smother then before. Thanks for the heads up on the long awaited update

There's a thread in the software forum to discuss this version

That way everyone can compare their results w/other phones too
