Any new development or fix for getting sling player mobile to work with wm6?

I thought i put a post yesterday about it, but it must have been deleted. I didn't add it to the XDA live or vanilla threads, since it doesn't seem to work on either version..SO i guess its just a WM6 thing..

Has anyone been able to get sling player mobile to work on any version of wm6?

No it is missing an audio codec or atleast the correct reference to it, we do no know which codec either.

I have the request in with engineers at sling, but no response. I am working through some other registry stuff but nothing yet.

Yea, I re-installed WM6 on my universal and tried sling and it doesn't work on that version of WM6 either. I called in a support ticket to sling and they were basically no help. Aware of the problem, but since WM6 is not officially released for hermes devices or universal devices, it was not high on their list to fix. Although, they admitted a future fix may become available. They said they hoped to have a fix available when WM6 devices become more officially released. And then may only work on the devices that are officially supported as WM6 devices.

it seems that whatever is TCPMP slingplayer from working is also messing with slingplayer.

What devices actually officially have WM6, we should call a trouble ticket on that. Tech support piss me off. They want to know which device so they can say it is unsupported, but really it is WM6 and not the device.

I've upgraded my wing to wm6.1 and my slingplayer quit working as well. Now I'll post a note with sling media requesting an upgrade.

Edit: I tried the different fixes suggested in the referenced threads but they didn't work for me. It installs fine, it locates my box fine, tried to connect then errors. It did work on wm6 but not 6.1.

I have Sling Mobile working on WM6. Are you referring to 6.1? If you're talking about 6 then I'm not sure why mine works but I will be happy to list all of my specs.

Same here, it works fine for me on WM6, VP3G 3.62.3 firmware, radio 1.54.30.10....

I've got TNT 6.1 ROM loaded on my device and SlingPlayer works fine. There shouldn't be a problem with WM6 or WM6.1 that I've seen and I've flashed both versions in last few months and have used SlingPlayer. I'd make sure your passwords are all correct and that you are making sure you are using the admin password if that box is checked.

When I am connected to my wifi at home, I can connect fine on wm6.1. As soon as I go back to Edge (T-mobile) - it tells me it can't connect. Hmmm.

radio = 03.07.90

I have had no problems with Sling player on mine using any of the 6.0 or 6.1 versions so far. I am currently using Faria R32 and it streams just fine.
