HD200 Via SlingBox Loses Quality
2 monitors, side-by-side.
Placeshifter on one, SlingPlayer on the other. SlingPlayer hooked into HD200. Both showing SageTV main menu. PlaceShifter's is sharp as a tack. SlinhPlayer's is fuzzy - not quite "barely readable", but drop down a couple of font sizes and that's what it would be. Am I the only one?

Slingbox is re-compressing the menu, isn't it? With Placeshifter, I could imagine it not needing to send the menus as full bitmaps, but Slingbox wouldn't know that the menus aren't just video from some TV station.

I guess the menus just look worse than the moving video bco they're so sharp to begin with and there is no motion/color/whatever to take one's mind off of the fuzziness.
