Watching ESPN3.com on Pre+?

AlbanyHDTV · 02/18/2011, 10:01 AM

I logged into my ESPN3.com account via my Pre+ today to see if I could watch any content.

Tomorrow's Syracuse vs. Rutgers basketball game is only available on ESPN3.com and I will be away from my house during the game.

What I found was I could successfully log into my account and authorize it via my cable provider. Once I attempted to watch any content, however, I found a blank viewing area. My guess is the TV content is displayed with Flash?

My second option is to view the game via my Slingbox, but there is still no Slingplayer app for the Pre.

How does a Pre+ owner view ESPN3.com content?

umm. What about desktop streaming? Stream it from your desktop/laptop at home to your pre?

Would you be able to describe the details involved to make this happen?

I tried it with orb before. If you use the old orb it still works I believe. You might wanna try this tho.. Ive never tried it like this.
