Using Slingremote; Control Mode - Sling Media Slingbox User Manual

Using SlingRemote

Use the SlingRemote as you would use your physical remote control for a particular device. The
SlingRemote changes with the device currently in use. For example, if you are using your DVD player,
the SlingRemote will look, and function like your DVD player's remote. Or, if you are using your DVR,
the SlingRemote will look and function like your DVR's physical remote. There is no new learning
required to use the SlingRemote.
To use the SlingRemote:
1. Click on SlingPlayer to display the remote control.
2. Use the buttons as you normally would with your physical remote control.
See "SlingRemote" on page 53 for more information.
The SlingRemote is designed to quickly respond to your remote control button presses. However, you
may notice a slight delay between the time you press a button and the actual change in the video. See
"Control Mode" on page 54.
Tip
You can also use the arrow buttons on your keyboard to
navigate. Also, Most SlingPlayer menu items and buttons have
their own keyboard shortcut. To view a button or menu
shortcut, move your mouse pointer over the item.

SlingPlayer is equipped with a feature called the Control Mode. What this does is, it lets you switch between channels faster. You can also use this if you are
rewinding your VCR.
