#Boxee applications for mac os x#

Now the installation process is one-click, and not a bunch of steps. Playback was a little more stilted than via the direct boxee app, but it is certainly more than watchable.īoxee's 'App Box,' which is similar to the Plex App Store, utilizes a lot of video source plugins previously available from places like BoxeeHQ. Plus, on my 40' Samnsung HDTV, the quality wasn't bad at all. Although the RSS feed implementation isn't as slick or as quick as boxee's stand-alone app was, it's a start. Within hours of the initial Hulu shutdown, industrious coders created alternatives anyway those alternatives were thwarted, rebuilt, thwarted again, and the game continues on. As boxee noted in its blog, users aren't going to wait around for Hulu's content providers to get with the program, or for an official agreement to be ironed out. Two weeks ago, boxee was forced to remove Hulu streams from its service. The new RSS reader allows users to access Hulu's public RSS feeds directly from boxee. This update, which the boxee team classifies as bleeding-edge (which means, if you don't want to deal with any potential bugs, wait for the more stable release scheduled for March 24, 2009) adds the 'App Box' - boxee's version of the App Store, automatic updates, and most excitingly, a new video-optimized RSS reader.
