The early SlingCatcher reviews were decidedly mixed. But, after speaking with project manager Matthew Feinstein last night, I’ve got decent news for owners and potential customers: Both Slingbox PRO HD high definition and networked drive streaming are on tap for Q1. Slingbox PRO HD resolutions will bumped up from 640×480 to 1280×540… with the ultimate goal of hitting 1920×1080 later in the year. The Catcher’s initial support for streaming files over the LAN will be limited to SMB shares, although uPnP is also on the roadmap. And, speaking of that roadmap, Mac OS X SlingSync and SlingProjector software is under development.
