Sling - Did something change?

[JEFFinINDY]

After reading Scott's post about a new version of the Sling plug-in for Windows, I launched my XP virtual machine and tried Dish Remote Access from Windows (normally, I use Firefox). The PQ was OK, but there were audio/video sync issues most likely due to the virtual machine's unaccelerated graphics.

Anyway... I then went back to Firefox on the Mac, and fired up Dish Remote Access, and the PQ is better than anything I've seen before. Truly near-HD, which is what I've read from other posts but never observed since I started Slinging.

Is this a coincidence, or did something change on the Dish servers today (or by me connecting once via PC)? My 922 still has S109. and the version of the Mac Sling plug-in hasn't changed.

I am thinking DISH did somethiing... I thought the HD quality on the 922 was terrible... until today.

Yeah, today it's great on the web. I still can't get HQ mode to work on the iPad.

Looks real good on PC, not so good on i-Pad. I just used i-Pad to go to remote access while already viewing on PC, it gave me a choice to take over control from the i-Pad, so I did this, boy! what a downgrade in PQ.
