Ringold Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 I am planning adding an HDMI matrix to my c4 project soon. One issue that I will encounter will be my slingbox Pro. It only accepts Component input.Has anyone encountered this problem and found a solution yet? I need to go from HDMI to component into the slingbox Pro...I have read in the past about HD Fury....Can not find where to purchase this product?!?!?!?Has it been discontinued??????

chicagoskiguy Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 Monoprice previously sold them. Looks like they don't anymore, but have you not tried http://www.hdfury.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dhatwell Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 I've used the HDFury. Works very well and does 5.1 audio too. Not cheap though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ILoveC4 Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 HD Fury works great. It should for $300. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
well_armed Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 Why would you buy a HDMI > Component coder when its more than the actual slingbox device? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ringold Posted April 10, 2011 Author Share Posted April 10, 2011 You obviously haven't used a slingbox....Its a great device, and works well with the c4 driver....hate to lose its functionality.The hdfury website says you can buy at sewell and monoprice, but neither site says they are available for sale.Other sites are overseas. Never heard of and don't know if reputable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
