SlingPlayer Forum

I've tried, and failed, to get things running the first three or four tries. I'm not sure where the problem lies, but I'll try to get some more details on here shortly.

How far were you able to get? I've gotten the interface up and I've gotten it to start connecting to my SlingBox AV on my MacBookPro and my Ubuntu6.06 desktop. When I try watch a stream or configure it gives me an error 0x80004001. I find this in my debug logs:

I'm using 6.0.0 Beta 2 Public release
In order to get it to work I had to create a fresh bottle, install IE6 and MSXML3 then tweak the dll overrides like so: userenv native, msxml3 native, msxml3r native, and then install slingplayer. But I'm wiped now and abandoning it for the night. I'll take a fresh look in the morning. I have a feeling its an unimplemented DirectX thing.

Not that far. Not even close. I hadn't installed IE6 first though, so I will try that as well.
