I just purchased a Boxee Box refurb on the advice that it is still the best at streaming local files from an attached hard drive. Unfortunately it only works for 2 of my 3 needs. Please read what my needs are below and recommend a media streamer if it exists. Or is a PC the only way? 1 – I...

 I have a Boxee Box that seems to be on its last legs. The remote has went wonky and then completely died. I tried to re-pair it and replace the battery but it didn't work.   I stream video from my PC mostly, usually HD MKV files and I also watch Netflix, that's about it.   I need:   -...

Well my Boxee Box is starting to die, it has been unable to show my "movie poster wall" for a few months and now the remote is getting bad. I did search and did not want to just post another "best streamer" thread, but.... My current situation, I am using a Dlink 2 bay NAS (4tb) but have...

We have seen a lot of Android-based media streaming boxes with XBMC support. One of the aspects which has made the enthusiasts shy away from such boxes is the absence of full Blu-ray compatibility. Recently, this product was brought to my attention: http://vidon.me/android_blu_ray_box.htm...

Call me a newbie here but here is my goal and I'll let you guys recommend what you think I should do Moving into a new house (new to me) and there are 2 family rooms that I'd want TV's in, as well as an area that would house all the electronics (Receivers, cable boxes, Boxee Box, DVD player...

I need some help here. I didn't want this to be a "what should I buy" questionnaire so I'll do my best. I have 2 WDTV SMP's (living room and bedroom) both hardwired via cat6 to (2) 3TB WD NAS. We just cut the cord on cable to save nearly $200/month. The problem is that these irritating little...

Hi Everyone, I apologize in advance if this post is not at the right place. I couldn't find any other forum to post it at. I live in Montreal, Canada and currently subscribed to Videotron cable TV (Internet and phone and cell phone, etc...) I decided that I would like to disconnect from...

I moved on to Mede8er after Boxee Box several months ago and haven't looked back, but one thing Boxee Box did (tried to do) right was ease of use, nice UI, with a decent mix of local and Internet content support. Outside of a HTPC, there hasn't been anything else quite like it... which is why...

Here is what I'm looking for in my streamer. Must Haves:Must have good jukebox/movie wall capability - this can run server side if it has to Must also handle files from multiple sources well (as the Boxee Box does). I have several separate external HDDs with my content Must play HD audio...

My current setup is western digital live hub and I have other western digital stand alone players in my house. I have everything hooked up to ethernet so no wireless system. I have tried mostly all media servers boxee box, apple tv etc..and found western digital to be the best as far as...

I'm trying to find a home theater setup that will satisfy the following requirements.user-friendly interface so my non-tech-savvy Mom can use 1080p Netflix support (that's user-friendly, unlike the hacks required in XBMC) smooth playback of local media, 1080p x264 MKV videos in 10bit aka Hi10P...

Hi there I am a bit lost with all the different devices and things that I could or can get and use There is Apple TV, Boxee, Roku, WD Live TV and Android TV, not to forget to mention the build it yourself PC types and the list goes on.... What I am seeking is a device that has wireless...

I've been looking for a solution to put in a few rooms at our house. While I've never tried the Roku, it seems like it has most of what we want, except the local content. Yes, I've read about Plex but I've heard some not so good comments about it, and it doesn't seem to play movies ripped in...

I currently have a plethora of craigslist aquired speakers I love to listen to. Using an Adcom GFA-545 I typically just plug mey PC into the amp with a 3.5 to rca cable. But I would love some USB hard drive support or streaming from PC and I realize my Boxee has that. I also know some Emotiva...

My Boxee Box is starting to run like complete rubbish at this point and as development for it has stopped I am considering replacing it with a new player. My uses are primarily local streaming of HD content via ethernet. I am looking for something with an attractive and fast UI for displaying...

Hi, Looking to build a perfect "Streamer" HTPC / Boxee Box / Xbox 1 XBMC replacement. Cost is not primary concern but functionality and cosmetic feel is. Would like to use standardized components. Ability to run Windows, Linux (variants), and potentially OSX if desired. All media would be...

Boxee will be giving away their device, Boxee TV, for free to many of those that have registered interest at their site. If you'd like to a chance to be one of these lucky people, then click over to the sign-up page on Boxee's website .

Now that Boxee Box is a dead piece of equipment(only one more update) I see only 2 real options for my needs, which are: 1. Internet connection interactivity. 2. Local shared content 3. Nice on screen (Flat panel) interface. OPTIONS: 1. Popcorn Hour A-300 or A-400 2. XBMC What is the...
