Slingbox Update, Version 1.6 Available Now
 
Not sure if this is posted already:

"Sling's just rolled out new versions of their SlingPlayer Mobile for Windows Mobile (both versions) and Symbian S60. It's a free upgrade for current users and adds support for new handsets (Nokia N95, Samsung i760, Treo 500v, etc.) and improves streaming quality (Sprint Mogul) on others. We went to a car wash this weekend and had 10 minutes of downtime. TEN MINUTES! This should ensure that never happens again."

It works on my Touch, too. Finally, no more stuttering and pauses in the video, it actually works! There's a new GDI rendering option which seems to be checked by default. Thanks Sling! Proof again that the behemoth HTC isn't worth the paper they wipe with.

Just downloaded & installed the update but & forgot to turn my modem on @ home :(
so I can't comment on the changes as yet. The NO MORE STUTTERING comment is encouraging though :)

smoother yes, nice to be able to get the voices to match the lips under bluetooth.

Question: Anyone seeing a slower framerate after the upgrade. Used to get 28-30 most of the time, now it's in the teens... But the picture is still clear... Just wondering....

hey i was thinking about buying slingbox, but iam in a area where i get 1x and sometimes EV, but most of the time i get 1x, will that affect my video streaming or is it worth me getting considering the 1x speed? thanks

With 1x, you would have to be in almost perfect conditions (signalwise) to get a good streaming experience.

I guess they've found a way to make the app much more efficient with the bandwidth thats available.
