Hi,

I am testing Boxee extensivley on Mythbuntu 9.04 and not doing anything with the results and bug data i am getting back from Boxee.

I am using betas of most of the software versions on a Atom 330 coupled with the ION 9400 GPU.

I am using proposed updates on ubuntu with the beta release of the NVIDIA ION driver and an updated release of pulseaudio. I am running this with audio over HDMI which in gerneal works very nicely. But I am still mamking it crash reliably.

From my personal point of view i would like to create an app for the MythTVWeb interface, I have the mythTV guys interested. Also an accessibility plugin for visually impaired users. Can you point my in the right direction on where to help, I am already reading the app docs on your website.

Hi, got to say I love boxee on my atv.

I was wondering if you guys are working on accessing the gpu(gpu acceleration) on the atv? It would be a killer feature and finally make HD content available in boxee(on the atv.)

also is there any plans for a openvpn/hotspotshield app so us non-americans can get some hulu love?

Cheers

Downloaded the update and that is when I began to have problems with Boxee. Some feeds from Hulu the audio played but the video did not. And the audio kept playing after I exited Boxee. Had to reboot to stop it. Then I tried again same video same problem… but the audio did stop. Found a video that played, watched it but when I tried to exit the program I couldn't. Had to force quit.

Regarding Netflix on Windows, we are working on it, and hope to make it available soon.

For Windows Media Center integration, you can actually do it the other way around – see http://bit.ly/boxeeinwmc. If you want to achieve this from Boxee, you could write a Boxee App (see http://developer.boxee.tv) to launch WMC – a good starting point may be the Facebook Photos app, which launches a browser.

Sweet update.

Of course some questions(big surprise).

Netflix support(windows) when?

Also when will it get VMC or 7MC support, so I can have the best of both worlds, as my Blue ray software only runs in 7MC with Arcsofts software(which is why I have to run 7MC, also for the tuner cards). Or is there a way to launch external apps within Boxee?

Keep up the good work.

Some configurations exhibited problems of which some were solved. Others (like the ATI card and configuration I'm using right now) work perfectly with no change.

Not clear on what "Support for ATI graphic cards" means. Were they not supported before or was the support buggy? I use an ATI card on Windows.

we're working on a search feature for the Beta, which will make the navigation much easier

Hello Boxee,

Great work alltogether.

Using Boxee on Vista Ultimate x64 without any serious issues.

Just wondering are there any plans in adding Music/Video etc. Library Search and also ability to quickly scroll to the bottom/middle of the playlist, as if you have a lot of i.e. music going all the way to letter "Z" using Boxee iPhone Remote may take a while.

Thank you…
