Sharing An Audio/Video Source; Connecting Multiple Audio/Video Sources To Slingbox - Sling Media Slingbox User Manual

Sharing an Audio/Video Source

Complete this step if you have to remove the cable or cables currently connecting your cable/
satellite box or DVR to your TV to include Slingbox in your setup. You may need to do this if your
device has only one set of outputs. This connection passes your television source through Slingbox and
back to your television.
Connect the same cable type for the output back to your TV as you used for the input to Slingbox. For
example, if you connected S-Video along with the red and white audio connectors to Slingbox, make the
same connection to your TV.
Important
If you connected a coaxial cable from your device to Slingbox, it will not work.
You need to use a coaxial splitter (not included). See "Using a Cable Modem" on
page 15.

Connecting Multiple Audio/Video Sources to Slingbox

All three Slingbox A/V inputs are available for use: Antenna/Cable In, S-Video In, and A/V
In. However, you can only set up one input during the initial installation of SlingPlayer. Once
you have completed the Setup Wizard for the first time, you can connect additional A/V
devices to the remaining Slingbox inputs.
If, for example, you connected your cable box or DVR to Antenna/Cable In on Slingbox, you
can later connect a DVD player to A/V In and switch between these two inputs while using
SlingPlayer.
