[Q] Slingplayer Mobile on Touchpad

---

Hello all,

I have an older slingbox. I have tried to install the slingplayer for tablet to my touchpad running CM9 Alpha 2. It installs fine but won't allow me to view my slingbox saying it is not compatible for the player, it has to be a slingbox HD or Pro.

The thing is, I have slingplayer mobile (not tablet) working just fine with it on my droid incredible running ics.

I installed the mobile (or phone) version to my touchpad and it tries to start then just goes back to the home screen.

How can I get slingplayer mobile (not the tablet version, but the phone version) to work with my touchpad cm9?

Thank you for any advice.
Gary

That's strange. I have a Slingbox Pro (the red one, UK spec) and the tablet version (1.3) doesn't support my hardware.

The Slingbox phone (1.2) app works perfectly with my TP and slingbox. No idea why you are having issues. It even worked with both versions of the app installed.

In short - the phone version (1.2) should work fine with the TouchPad.

Edit: Slingbox Pro is not enough for 1.3 support, it needs to be the newer PRO-HD hardware. From the Slingbox website for the tablet edition:

SlingPlayer requires the use of an internet-connected Slingbox SOLO
or Slingbox PRO-HD. When used with an Android tablet, iPad or a Windows
Phone device, only Slingbox SOLO and Slingbox PRO-HD are supported.

What operating system are you using n your touch pad? I tried it on my nook also using cm9 and it doesn't work there either

Edit. Found slingplayer mobile 1.0 and that works with the touchpad

slingplayer 1.3 works on my tablet running honeycomb with an older slingbox and slingbox pro

I'm using Slingplayer 1.3 on my Solo and the latest CM9 nightly with no issues.
