Step 2: Connect Video - Sling Media SB260-100 Quick Start Manual

•
Connect your existing set of red and white audio cables to the output ports on your video source (such
as a DVR, Cable Box, Satellite Receiver or DVD Player). These ports are typically labeled OUT or OUTPUT.
Connect the other end of these cables to the ports labeled IN on your Slingbox SOLO.

STEP 2: CONNECT VIDEO

Now that you've completed setting up the audio connections, you can set up the video connections.
The Slingbox SOLO has connections for composite video, S-video, and component video. Again, using your
flashlight, check the back of your TV and the back of your video device to see the kinds of available connectors
they have for video.
•
COMPOSITE: If your video device and your TV have available composite connections (white, red and
yellow), connect the yellow cable to the connection labeled IN on your Slingbox SOLO. Connect the other
end of the yellow cable to the output connection on your video device. With a composite connection, the
yellow connection carries video.
•
S-VIDEO: If your video device and your TV have available S-video connections (black with multiple pins),
connect the [included?] S-video cable to the connection labeled IN on your Slingbox SOLO. Connect the
other end of the S-video cable to the output connection on your video device. The S-video connection
carries video but no sound.
•
HD-COMPONENT: If your video device and your TV have available component connections (a set of
green, blue and red connections), you'll need to purchase a set of component cables. Connect these
cables to the component connections labeled IN on your Slingbox SOLO. Connect the other ends of the
cables to the output connections on your video device. The component connection carries video but no
sound.
Once you find and set up the connections, write down the type of connection you use. You'll need this
information later when you set up the software.
