Connecting multiple Audio/Video sources to the Slingbox

All three of the Slingbox A/V inputs are available for use: Antenna/Cable In, S-Video In and A/V In. How- ever, you can only set up one input during the initial installation of the SlingPlayer software. Once you have completed the Setup Wizard for the first time, you can connect additional A/V devices to the remaining Slingbox inputs.

If, for example, you connected your cable box or DVR to Antenna/Cable In on the Slingbox, you can later connect a DVD player to A/V In and switch between these two inputs while using the SlingPlayer.

Note: If you plan to connect an A/V source to both A/V In and S-Video In, you will only receive the audio signal from the source to which the A/V cable is connected. However, you can use one of these combi- nations and receive both audio and video:

•Antenna/Cable In and A/V In, or

•Antenna/Cable In and S-Video In (along with the red and white audio from the A/V cable).
