SlingPlayer 2.0 enters public beta -- without Clip+Sling {Engadget}
Aug 7th 2008 4:52PM Holly pixels batman, the picture isnt as smoothed as it used to be even with a solid connection speed and maxed buffer it looks far grainier. This for me is a deal breaker for the beta for now. Be aware guys, the picture quality noticeably decreases. Here is a screencap, as you can see I was getting a solid ~650kbps, which on the old player would look a lot better than this.

SlingPlayer 2.0 enters public beta -- without Clip+Sling {Engadget}
Aug 7th 2008 4:42PM Initial reactions:
It's definitely slicker looking in every sense, the installer checks for adobe flash (i dont recall the old one doing this) so this to me indicates some elaborate animations to be seen in the UI. It takes a long time to install, but it's a beta so thats forgiveable.
After install, if you are installing over an existing install, it remembers your slingboxes but you have to immediately set up a sling account (or login if you made one previously) when you go to view your box. You then need to update the box and go through the set up again. This is where I am now, I'll reply as I get further.
