As you look at slingbox closely you see that it's input is component video.
Crunching sound. Component video was "sunsetted" in 2010 so very few DVRs have that output so crunch.
Sounds like details matter.

I want to travel out of town and then watch a program that is recorded on my home dvr using my computer or smartphone. I have heard that slingbox has hardware and software that can do this. Has any forum member done this. Your advice please.
