Skyfire used to work for all streaming and HULU. I have been using it since before it was public.

You are 1000% correct....! Most people do not want to take their time and learn about the SkyFire browser, that's why they have problems... Then the first thing they will say, the browser is no good, when it's actually them... The Skyfire browser is sweet, I go here all the time, get all the TV you will ever want, http://www.beta.sling.com no SlingBox required.....

D- I just downloaded SkyFire to my TP today at like 10am eastern from www.skyfire.com. Are you saying there is an even newer version of SkyFire they posted today?

On another note, when in the Skyfire browser, does anyone else constantly get stuck on 'authenticating'? You know, the little red progress bar at the bottom of your screen when on SkyFire that shows the download progress. Mine constantly gets stuck on 'authenticating' and I have to menu/exit skyfire in order to get it back to normal...

TIA

the sound issue happens time to time, mine doesnt do it much but when it happens, it comes back in a couple seconds or i just try that vid or whatever again.
