Navigation; Navigator Keys; Numeric Keys/Letter Keys; Using The Remote Control - Sling Media SlingPlayer Mobile User Manual

Navigation

With SlingPlayer Mobile, you can navigate the options in multiple ways.
You can use either the navigator keys or the numeric keypad/
QWERTY keyboard.

Navigator Keys

This is the five-way joystick/key on your smartphone. With this, you
can move the selection up, down, left, right, or select it pressing the
center button.
For example, while streaming, to see the different video input options,
select Menu, press down and then press right to see the options. You
can close a sub menu by pressing left.

Numeric Keys/Letter Keys

With each menu item, there is a corresponding number (or underlined letter for a QWERTY
keyboard). For example, when you select Menu, the following options appear. If you want to edit
Favorites, you can press 6 on your numeric keypad.

Using the Remote Control

Use the remote control functions as you would use your physical remote
control for a particular device. The remote control changes with the
device currently in use. For example, if you are using your DVD player,
the remote control will function like your DVD player's remote.
Alternatively, if you are using your DVR, the remote control will
function like your DVR's physical remote.
To use the remote control while streaming:
1. Select Menu > Remote Control.
The remote control menu appears on screen.
2. Use the navigator keys or keypad to browse the different options.
3. Either press the center navigator key or the corresponding numeric
key/letter to execute the remote control function.
4. Select Menu > Close Remote to exit this sub menu and return to the main menu.
See "Control Mode" on page 21 for additional options.

Changing Channels in Numeric Mode

By default, the Input Mode on SlingPlayer Mobile is in numeric mode, for ease of changing channels.
When you are in this mode, the Input Mode indicates "123".
To change channels, simply press the channel number on your keypad. For devices with a QWERTY
keyboard, hold down the "Alt" key and then enter the channel number.
