How did you get it to work with the PC/MAC version of Slingplayer? (not web based)

I HAVE found they work with my slingplayer for MAC and for PC, so not sure why they wouldn't. And yes, they don't TECHNICALLY work with slingcatcher yet, but there is a work around if one searches hard enough.

Not sure if it was here, but you can change the name of the unit via the web player, just go to settings, info and click on the name on the bottom right. change to whatever you like.
