Sling Media has unveiled the public beta of SlingPlayer 2.0, the much-anticipated upgrade to its revolutionary software that lets viewers watch and control their home television from any Internet-connected computer anywhere in the world.

This new version incorporates a sleek and intuitive interface, making it easier than ever for users to access their home TV via the web. With enhanced streaming quality and faster connection times, SlingPlayer 2.0 beta provides an outstanding viewing experience.

One of the most exciting features of SlingPlayer 2.0 beta is the Live Video Buffer, a feature that allows users to pause, rewind and fast-forward live TV on their computer, just like they can with a DVR at home. This functionality extends to all content streamed from their home television, regardless of whether or not their home setup includes an actual DVR.

The beta also brings integrated Sling Accounts, which means that users can now access their Slingbox remotely without having to remember intricate direct connection details. Simply by logging into their Sling Account, they can connect to their device seamlessly.

Another notable enhancement is the Clip+Sling feature, which provides a legal way for users to share clips of their favorite TV moments online. Users can capture a short snippet of a live or recorded show and share it with friends or family, expanding the social aspect of TV watching.

The public release of the SlingPlayer 2.0 beta signifies Sling Media’s commitment to pushing the boundaries of how we watch television. It’s not just about watching your favorite shows; it’s about interacting with them and sharing them in entirely new ways.

The future of TV viewing starts here, with features that cater not just to the avid traveler who doesn’t want to miss live broadcasts but also to those who want more control over their viewing experience at home.

For current Slingbox owners looking to upgrade or first-timers curious about transforming their TV watching habits, SlingPlayer 2.0 beta is now available for download, promising a robust and enriched viewing experience that redefines ‘TV on the go’.
