logitech revue and $4 monthly integration fee

[MattG@DISH]

When bought through someone other than us, you won't be charged the integration fee (unless you have it added to your account).

I'm not sure as to whether or not you'll be able to watch sling with the Revue though. I don't think the browser will download the plug-in that is needed. However, now that it has the Android Market available on it, you may be able to get the Dish Remote Access app, and sling using it. I will try to find out for you.

The media support on the GoogleTV box is very poor. It won't play most of my media.

The BOXEE Box does so much better in this regard.

Have you tried GTVbox ($1.99)

I was worried about this aswell. I think im going to order it. I was also wondering if you can play media off your pc or external hard drive. Anybody try this. I was about to purchase a boxee box by d-link and decided to give this a 2nd look.

I'm using win7 homegroup media streaming to the google tv, the win7 dlna media server doesn't stream all file types to the google tv logitech media player but mp4 avc works fine. Supposedly an alternate media player GTVBox Video Player ($1.99) is an improvement

It only (claims to) supports the media formats which the Revue supports. I think one is better off pick a DLNA server which does transcoding on the fly (ie. adapts whatever you want to watch, to whatever the client box will accept).

There is currently no way to sling through the Revue

Is there any plan to support Revue... is there another device like Revue that I can use?

Thanks

Dish should work on adding support for other devices considering the revue was discontinued.

The hd DVR rcvrs ( not 922) support any google tv device.
