Archive overview

SlingFront

SlingFront was created as Windows front-end software for accessing Slingboxes in a media-centre or HTPC 10-foot environment, where the interface needs to be usable from a TV and remote control rather than a desk.

The legacy release includes XBMC/Kodi-era launch integration, support for multiple Slingboxes and a full-screen interface designed for sofa-distance use.
