Upgraded to 1.2. Now I can select a video. The "loading" icon shows up, but a video never starts playing. After a bit, the loading icon goes away and nothing happens.

BTW, does one need to uninstall a boxee app before upgrading a boxee app? I cool, auto-upgrade (ala apple app store) feature would be sweet.

Hi Victor,

A new version (1.2) has been pushed this morning. And from my current understanding, it should take care of the issue you are facing. Can you please upgrade the app and let me know how it goes ?

I'm using the boxee iphone remote as well as a keyboard via VNC. If I click OK or RETURN, nothing happens.

And for the dumb users like me… this is a download in the Boxee App Area, right?

Where do we get this?
