using a slingbox without a dvr
 

is this possible?

I want to hook a sling box upto a tv without a dvr or other such device to it. I know I'm the last person in the world to not have a dvr but I don't have one nor am I getting one. can I use a sling box with a set up like this or not?

Not a 100% sure, but I would say you should be able to.

Do you mean up to your cablebox, or up to your tv? It needs to have access to some type of content, a tv tuner, cablebox, etc.

my tv. I don't have a cablebox or anything like that. The tv is connected to the the jack in the wall.

Yep, you can.

But you need the slingbox with the built in tuner:

This is correct - the tuner in the Slingbox Pro eliminates the need for a cable box, dvr or satellite receiver. Besides the benefits of being able to watch what you want when away from home, I like to sit out back with a laptop and a cigar watching the game - best money I've spent. :tu

It appears that the Slingbox Tuner is discontinued but I'm sure you can find one ebay or somewhere and save some cash.
