Slingbox Easy Fix

Slingbox recently upgraded it's firmware to encrypt video streams. So if you recently purchased the product make sure you not upgrading to version 1.0.86 which added this encryption. If you already did then it's too late but you can download the old firmware by loading the older Slingplayer software. It will cost you $29.95 direct. But try before you buy to make sure it works. Hopefully they're will be other open source software to make this easier to do. For now this is your only choice.
