Roku Control is poor
I just reached my vacation home and was looking forward to using my Slingbox with a Roku3. I installed Rokus Slingbox channel. Then learmed that I needed to purchase a $15 App for my Iphone. I bought the App and set it up and learned about the rube-goldberg setup. The results were poor with all Hd reduced to Poor sd and constant pauses to cache the stream. I expected the Roku to connect via Internet to my home Slingbox. Instead, the iphone connects to the Internet via wifi, then streams the video to the Roku via IR. The interface is a poor match for an Xfinity X1 system. It works but yuck.
Save your money until Roku offers a proper channel for Slingbox and leaves the Iphone out of it. Also, if I want to use an Ipad to control the setup, I need to pay $15 again.
