a new bug fixing version is available for download

we just released a minor update to the alpha for Mac and Apple TV. version 4166.
if you’re already a boxee alpha tester you can get it here (if you’re on Apple TV update Launcher and then update Boxee).

it fixes some nasty SMB crashes (when connecting boxee to another computer or storage device on the network). we also made some small fixes to the streaming of Hulu.

we’re going to release another version with even more bug fixes, as well as some new stuff on the first week of December. we’re just too itchy to release stuff out as soon as we have it working..

    I’m jealous of all the happy Boxee people who got their Boxee invites… sure must be neat…

    @avner Its on majors corner hence it being a major. and sits on top of a public toilet hence it swotting flys. It was just a council commission to brighten up a slightly dull part of town.

    Boxee has changed the way my family watches tv! Great work and much appreciated!

    I look forward to trying the new updates, as Hulu playback has a stuttering problem on my Apple TV.

  17. BBox Boxee says:

    Thanks guys,
    recently joint the alpha tester group. Hulu has been hicking up for me a bit. Keep it going,

  18. Dave says:

    @chrice @avner I thought it was Inspector Gadget. Now I have that damn song in my head. Thanks for that. Oh, and I want to see this toilet now too. Ipswich it is!
