    I'm looking for a solution to get Irish TV channels in Portugal. Right now the best solution I have is Slingbox at home with UPC HD+ box and a slingplayer device in Portugal. I can get unlimited BB in Portugal for a good price so that's why I'm going down that road.

    I want to watch the UPC Channels on a regular CRT TV in Portugal so am looking for some advice on which device to buy to connect to the TV. The device would need to output over composite and HDMI.

    I use the WD TV Live GEN3 with the built in Slingbox player for watching my satellite remotely. It works great. I know it has HDMI output but I'm in work at the moment so can't check the composite part.

    ** Just checked online, no composite output. **

    Belkin have a streamer similar to sling called Belkin @Tv plus. It has composite output but no hdmi.

    Harveynorman.ie had a sale earlier in the week @ 48€, I ended up getting one at the sop for 49.90€. Still untested but planning on doing it over the weekend.

    Amazon reviews seem to indicate it is a good product and at that price, a good alternative to Sling.

    Oh I have the Slingbox 350, by the way. Got it from Amazon.com. Really good device.
