A:AnswerThis unit currently does not incorporate the sling app, however sling is working hard to include as many sources as possible to make it available. So in the future that could change. This unit does include hulu which is similar. The unit is a winner when you consider all the available options of recording that you probably never thought of . The unit even records while it's at sleep!!! With a picture quality that surpasses my 70 inch 4K tv* Phil
A:Answeryour answer is yes. not only will you be able to stream and record all your local channel line up but also updated programs that isnt in the line up for recording on you tube. you can also recover programs you may have deleted as well. one of the most impressive things ive quickly noticed is the crisp sharp and colorful picture quality you get with this unit that beats my 70 inch vizio 4k tv. that was actually more than i even ask for. if you have a modem from comcast like me you may need an ethernet cable plugged in your modem thats very easy to connect. you will also need an antenna if you have over the air reception. well im sure you will love this unit as i do. Phil
A:AnswerYes, that's how it operates. Connect the antenna to Tivo (not to tv). Connect Tivo to your tv. Place your antenna for best reception. Scan your tv for channels.
A:AnswerI purchased the one year plan. Customer service said I could purchase the lifetime plan after one year. I would suggest you check with customer service when you set up your plan.
A:AnswerMy purchase from Best Buy appeared to be new. The packaging looked new. The box seal was not broken.
Everything inside looked like it was factory packaged.
It was no problem to set up, and has been working as expected so far (a couple of months now).
Hope this helps.
