I'd probably recommend trying it out, Amazon should give you a solid 30 days, and after the new-paint smell wears off you should know if it will work for you. ![]() It's not a BAD box per se, but I think I've just hit my boiling point with the issues I have received. I believe the UI is generally sluggish for everyone, and I rarely use apps so I can't speak to those. Others seem to not be having any issues at all, a few of us are. Tantalous, haven't seen you around in The Ray Parlour, unless I'm just not observant. Am I going to be horribly disappointed with a BB? Are there any other options? I need 1080p, ESPN3, and Netflix (that's not a crappy add-on). Boxee box xbmc installable 1080p#I currently have an ATV2 w/ XBMC but I'd really like to be able to view 1080p content. I was all set to pull the trigger on one of these, but now you guys have me second guessing my decision. The box needs to be $99 and the software really really needs to be improved. Drop the software part, get a better hardware partner. I just really hope something else comes out, or that local playback improves on the google TV or roku. Now my movies list stops at "J" due to the recent update. I can deal with the Sluggish UI, but not working? meh. ![]() Boots up to a black screen, even in recovery mode! Just filed a ticket with D-link and as it's still under warranty, I'm not concerned, but eyeing alternatives soon I think.

Boxee box xbmc installable update#Are they poised to release an update or something? My girlfriend used to love the boxee and now she's getting pissed off because it never works when she wants to watch netflix, thankfully I have a PS3 as well which runs netflix and vudu flawlessly but I'm really beginning to feel like my boxee box is a paperweight if I can't count on it to play basic media and run apps without choking.Ī few months ago I would recommend this thing emphatically but I definitely can't do that in it's current state. streaming videos from my PC buffer far too frequently but even if that could be chalked up to wireless issues the thing that is even more frustrating is that netflix, vudu, and all of my other apps basically just won't connect at all, or they'll start to connect and then timeout. But lately my boxee box can't seem to connect to anything worth a poo poo. I never seem to have any issues with connecting to the internet on my PC, 802.11n seems to be plenty fast. My boxee box, cable modem, and router are downstairs all directly connected, my main desktop pc with my media on it is upstairs connected to my router wirelessly. My network connectivity has been atrocious lately. So it's been a while since I've checked this thread, but I have to ask, is the boxee firmware getting worse or something? did they push out a bad update? ![]()
