Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Sling Media HD Connect Cable for Slingbox Pro ( HD200-100 )
Customer Review: Important for TIVO HD
Summary: 5 Stars
This cable is used to tie a SlingboxPro into an RGB stream such as the one between your TIVO HD unit and your monitor.
Some reviews on this site complain about the price. There are dozens for sale on eBay for under $20 (including shipping and extra cables!).
Some reviews say the cable should not have been needed, but then the cost of the Slingbox would have increased, while only a portion of buyers would have really needed the RGB connections. In addition the design of the box would need to be changed, since there is no additional room on the back for the numerous connectors.

Better than average product. Works as advertised. Would be nice if it connected HDMI to HDMI, instead of HDMI at Slingbox end and Component at Source end.Customer Review: Sling Media HD Cable

Great cable - our picture never looked better. We have slingbox pro and this was a great addition to the picture quality.Customer Review: Expensive but works great
Summary: 4 Stars
The option is expensive, but works really well - exacly as advertised. Very easy and straight forward to setup and delivers the contents well. The complaint I have is a philosphical one - why not allow the standard HDMI connector / connections instead of the proprietary gadget for HD contents? It seems Sling Media just wants to nickel and dime us. However, this is their platform and they have the right to do it the way they want. What I can indeed say is that the gadget, albiet a bit expensive as comapred to perhaps just using a std HDMI option, works really well. If you can use it and can afford it, get...Customer Review: Nice addition but expensive

This feature should have been built-in to the Slingbox Pro from the beginning. They now have a new model of the Slingbox that has these connections built-in along with 1080i upscaling. The Slingbox pro was supposed to be made for multiple connections and has an HDMI like connection but will not work unless this HD Connect is attached to it. A HDMI input/output connection on this dongle would have received a better review. Overall, I was not pleased with the PQ of the slingbox with this connection via PC or remote access and got rid of it.
