Amazon.com Product Description:
The first generation Slingbox was a big step forward for so-called "place shifting" technology, a device that allowed you to view incoming TV signals on any TV computer in your home, or on any Internet-connected PC around the world. Sling Media is now introducing the successors to this groundbreaking product. Now there are three Slingboxes to choose from, each with features that make it easier than ever to bring your TV and other media with you wherever you roam. Choose from the Slingbox Tuner, AV, and Pro models depending on your entertainment needs. Compare Slingbox models.
Slingbox Pro
The Slingbox Pro ensures that you can watch all of your favorite home theater entertainment anywhere you go, with the ability to watch and control up to three standard definition and one high definition video (via component connection) devices. Using an Internet connected computer or compatible mobile phone (with purchase of SlingPlayer Mobile software), you can watch and control your home TV, DVR, basic cable, digital cable box, or satellite receiver anywhere around your home or around the globe. With a Slingbox Pro you will never be separated from your favorite TV shows, sports broadcasts, breaking news stories, digital video recordings, or video on demand.
The Slingbox Pro also includes the free Slingbox Finder service to locate a Slingbox from any network location, in or out of the home.
How it Works
Slingbox Pro is a small device that connects to your cable box to redirect the TV signal to the computer of your choice--providing high quality video, no matter the distance, so long as there is a high-speed Internet connection. This technology also allows you to access and control your TV from anywhere--and your TV doesn't even have to be on.
SlingMedia's patent pending SlingStream technology delivers the smoothest and best video quality possible. SlingStream delivers up to a 400 percent video quality improvement over the original Slingbox. SlingStream is powered by a programmable engine that is capable of running the latest video compression algorithms. SlingStream dynamically adjusts to changes in network conditions, video content, and Internet bandwidth.
At Home, At Work, or on the Go
At home, Now you can watch TV in whatever room in the house you choose. Say goodbye to the days of having to watch your child's favorite DVD over and over again. Now you can watch your soaps in the laundry room. You can watch your fix-it shows in the garage. Or you can watch your cooking shows in the kitchen. You'll never get stuck having to watch shows you don't want to now that you're in charge of what's on, when it's on, and where it's on.
Now that you can access your TV wherever you have your computer, the clock won't be the only thing worth watching at work. You can watch your news and business channels to stay updated. You can catch the big game while tending to business. Or, you can watch your favorite shows during your downtime. In any event, work will never just be business as usual.
With the SlingBox you can travel to another country and actually understand the programs. You can visit the in-laws and not get stuck watching The Weather Channel.

Rating: 
- good device
I little tedious to install with my setting. Connected directly to the antena from the roof so clarity of some channels not too good. Did not try to connected to the satelite box yet.
You need to know some stuff about computers and internet to connect this.

- worked, but then would not change channels.Waste.
Worked great at first, but later I could only view the channel that was last on the cable box.Kind of useless at that point.A fun toy that was not ready for release.There are enough people here with obvious defects that manufacturer should have offered to fix, but that did not happen.Would not buy this or its newer versions.

Hello All,
Here's my opinion on the slingbox pro. It was a great device for a while. It worked. The video was OK. It worked remotely on both my PC and my phone. So, that was all good.
Here's the bad. Their software prompts you to update occasionally. Doing so makes you get new features - usually. However, this last time, it completely broke everything. After they do an update that breaks your connectivity, they want $29 to fix it.

I'm relatively tech savvy and have never got this thing to work.The tech support was not helpful at all.So far this has been a total waste of money.
Rating: - slingbox pro sb200-100 works well with some tweaks

Video interference occurs on one audio channel of the cable box input, assumably due to an empty video input from the video, or possibly from the audio port used by the surveillance sequencer.Can work through that problem with laptop/PDA controls which allow selection of right/left/both audio channel output.
