What are Mobile Favorites?
Mobile Favorites is a feature within SlingPlayer Mobile for BlackBerry. It's a list of channel favorites specifically for use with SlingPlayer Mobile for BlackBerry. You can set up and edit your Mobile Favorites list using SlingPlayer 2.0 for Windows. Your Sling Account automatically keeps your Mobile Favorites list synchronized between your PC and your BlackBerry.
How are Mobile Favorites created, and how do I use them?
The first time you log in to your Sling Account within SlingPlayer Mobile for BlackBerry, a Favorites list called Mobile Favorites is created automatically within your Sling Account. You don't need to take any other action. Initially, this Mobile Favorites list is filled with whatever channel Favorites you've currently got set up in SlingPlayer 2.0 for Windows, but you can edit the channels in your Mobile Favorites list at any time. The next time you use SlingPlayer Mobile for BlackBerry, and log in to your Sling Account, you see your Mobile Favorites displayed in the Mobile Favorites Ribbon.
To edit your Mobile Favorites list, use SlingPlayer 2.0 for Windows on your PC. Then, every time you connect to your Slingbox using SlingPlayer Mobile for BlackBerry, any updates you made to the Mobile Favorites list appear in the Favorites Ribbon. Unfortunately you can't change your Mobile Favorites from your BlackBerry, you need to use your PC with SlingPlayer 2.0 for Windows.
I've never seen this thing called "Sling Accounts." What is it?
You may not be familiar with Sling Accounts if you:
- are a Mac OS computer user
- live outside the United States or Canada
Sling Accounts are a free feature, offered in SlingPlayer 2.0 for Windows, that keeps track of all of your Sling Media info, such as your Slingbox ID number(s), Slingbox passwords, and your channel Favorites lists. By letting your Sling Account save all this info for you, it's even easier to connect to your Slingbox, no matter what computer or handheld you're using. SlingPlayer Mobile for BlackBerry is designed to use your Sling Account info so you can connect right away.
However, if you aren't using SlingPlayer 2.0 for Windows within the U.S. or Canada, then the Mobile Favorites feature isn't yet available to you. Still, you can manually create a Sling Account for your Slingbox(es), so you don't have to enter your Slingbox info manually into SlingPlayer Mobile for BlackBerry.
If you're using Windows, but you haven't yet upgraded to SlingPlayer 2.0 for Windows ...
Why the heck not? It's free, it offers lots of new features, and the Sling Accounts feature is integrated into it. It's almost like getting a whole new Slingbox. You can download the SlingPlayer 2.0 for Windows installer from the Sling Media website. |
