Check out www.orb.com It works great with my 6700 and you can't beat the price.

Couldn't agree more seeing as how one of my favorite blog posts that I have written to date is called Orb is AMAZING!

Geeez. Just to add my sling slings beautifully to my Mogul. No audio sync issues.

I just have yet to see the SlingPlayer perform perfectly on a Mogul--and I've seen 6.

If you have the means, take a video of it playing. Maybe we can narrow down what's causing the issue.

I'm pretty sure it's DirectDraw that's flawed on the Mogul. WMPlayer has the same problems, as does TCPMP in DirectDraw mode. Put it into Raw Framebuffer or GDI modes and it works perfectly. Not rocket science. Hopefully a rom update fixes the problem but, also hopefully, Sling Media can find a way around the problem before that.

Mine is choppy too, I don't have anything to compare to though since I didn't have it installed on my 6600.

I've had major sync issues, but I have found something that helped greatly. I switched the audio to Mono Low and it has stopped my sync issue. Just wanted to see if this works for anybody else . Oh yeah I'm running the classic slingbox with the most current firmware, and the encoding is set to medium action

It worked flawlessly.
When I purchased the 6800, I tried to load the version which was playing on my 6700 and my Q.
It didn't work.
I downloaded the wm6 version and it is noticeably worse.
I still have the 6700 and Q so I checked and there is a distinct difference.
BTW...my 6800 version is asking for a reg code.
I was in the first few w/ my 6700 so no charge for that.
Are we going have to purchase the wm6 version when it expires?
Thanks for the info...

Just call them up or email them with you purchase info and they will generate a new key. You must specify that you upgraded from WM5 to WM6. And if your having sync issues try putting it on Mono Low..

i have a SB Pro and 1.5MB up so syncs to 650k, there is some skip but nothing i wouldn't expect over video feed on EVDO. I think some expectations may be set to high, it is better than my 2000 axim and i never had a 6700, so maybe my opinion inst as valid of the video expectations. I will say the Mogul is everything I have hoped so far, looking forward to sprint NAV and Sprint TV and rev A.
