When I watch using Watch on Slingbox.com or SlingPlayer, the colors are all wrong. Sometimes, the picture is mostly green. What should I do?


Here's what you need to do to fix this. It's very simple.
No, your Slingbox isn't making a fashion statement! The colors are just wrong.

if there are problems with the cables


1. Check your video cable connections.
Make sure that all of the cables are connected properly (red cable to red connector, blue to blue, green to green, etc.). Also, make sure that they're all seated firmly in the ports.

2. If that doesn't work, try new cables.
Cables can sometimes fail because of a bad connector or because of internal damage to the wires.


If you're not sure what all those cables are in the back of your Slingbox, check the related article.
