Slingfront on Raspberry PI XBMC or similar?

[steveh2001]

Hi

I am looking to setup a media streamer / htpc of sorts, just to play slingbox.

None of the commercial media streamers work (e.g. boxie, ROCU etc) with the Echostar Slingbox.

Slingfront works great from my PC with the slingbox direct and via XMBC.

I would like to get a raspberry PI box or similar with XBMC installed to run this.

I gather flash doesn't work on a PI but can Slingfront work on a raspberry PI? Or does it require a windows OS?

Cheers

Steve

SlingFront is based on the Slingplayer ActiveX component which makes it Windows only.
