Slingbox Pro newbie questions

Post by bukzin »

Super newbie here...

I have a DirecTV HD box (HR-21) and a rooftop antenna to feed into
my "SB Pro".

Does the RF (coax) connector feed a SB tuner?
How are you guys using that input?

My setup is working via home network; have live TV on laptop
via wireless router (WGT54), look excellent!


Thanks,

The coax connector on the SB does indeed connect to the internal tuner in the SB. You don't need to use this connector if you intend to watch the DTV box using the SB, all you need to do is take the av-outs from the DTV box and connect them to the av-in on the SB.
