I'm sure the problem is Sling.com but it's interesting so I'll tell you
about it. I wanted CNN between now and he election so I signed up for Sling.com It worked fine during the first 28 hours, but since 6PM
today, there is usually no sound on CNN and another channel.
Except, when you start it up, t here is sound for 5 seconds. Then if
you click Pause and Play, there is sound for 2 or 3 seconds, usually.
And if you close the channel and restart it, again 2 or 3 seconds and
then silence.
Sometimes advertisement4s have sound, but not always.
Meanwhile, the Sling app on android works fine, the webpage on the
Chrome browser on Android works fine, and the CNN channel on Tunein
works fine.
Hmmm. That sounds like it's my windows but it worked fine for 24
hours, and it works for 2 or 3 seconds. often. And everything else on
that computer that makes sound works fine!!!!
I don't know if it's more than 2 channels. I would think lots of people
have complained and I did aobut 2 hours ago. I hope they fix it in time
for the Dem. Convention, but if not, it included the phone app.

Have you had Task Manager open ?
I would be curious (with a duration like 24 hours), whether
this Sling thing had used up RAM and not released it.
Perhaps a reboot will give you another 24 hours of usage.
