Does the Slingbox work with High Definition (HD) signals?
Yes. The Slingbox PRO with HD Connect Cable and the Slingbox SOLO allow you to watch and control your HD content via component inputs. These Slingboxes physically link to HD devices and take a 720p or 1080i signal and down-convert it to standard-definition resolution before streaming it over the network. The Slingbox and SlingStream technology adapt the compressed video stream to match the available network and Internet bandwidth to provide the best possible video quality, whether running on a supported computer or compatible mobile phone. While these Slingboxes do not stream HD video at 720p or 1080i, they do allow you to access both your SD and HD channels seamlessly, and the HD component video content results in a stream that looks great.
Does the Slingbox stream High Definition (HD) video?
No. The current Slingboxes, including the Slingbox PRO with HD Connect and Slingbox SOLO, accept HD component signals at 720p or 1080i and down-convert them to standard-definition (SD) resolution before streaming it over the network. However, when appropriate, a Slingbox accessing component video input will maintain anamorphic resolution with progressive scan and stream video at a higher bitrate than SD content for improved picture quality. The Slingbox and SlingStream technology adapts the compressed video stream to match the available network and Internet bandwidth to provide the best possible video quality, whether running on a supported computer or compatible mobile phone.
My friend has a Slingbox Pro-HD in U.S. n I have a Slingcatcher in HK. The signal is not stable even for standard definition picture, even though I am using PCCW 30M service at home. For HD signal, u can forget it, maybe a slight chance if it is within the same building.
As for World cup, u don't need it unless u work night shift , since the games will be on 7:30PM, 10PM n 2:30PM every night.
