![]() ![]() Thankfully for those of you out there who do not want to build it yourself from source, the user devilstrike (from boxeed.in forums) has created an online repository where you can download an already built XBMC on Boxee Box release. Most users are not familiar with building from source, let along using Linux or Mac to do so. There are instructions under docs/README.boxeebox on how to build and compile XBMC so you can install it on the Boxee Box. The GitHub repository for XBMC on Boxee Box is here: Keep in mind there are probably going to be issues, and a functioning version of XBMC is VERY new to the Boxee Box so there will be bugs, and things that do not work…but if you’re like me and love cutting edge things, you can see past those bugs as long as the main functionality is still there. Installing XBMC on the Boxee Box will allow you to have all those amazing features back, and allow you to do your own customization (and in my case, install PseudoTV!!). If you’re familiar with XBMC or Boxee you know that the original version of Boxee was a fork of XBMC (which is why Boxee violated the GPL), but stripped down with fewer features and functions. How to install XBMC on a rooted D-Link Boxee Box Also, please note that " devilstrike’s website" is also dead and dust.Īgain I suggest you read the entire website page, not just this: I've found that version A1 Boxee Boxes don't "play well" with B+H, no sweet with A2 and any v.B BB's. The Caveat: you MUST have Boxee + Hacks installed before moving to the Root install of XBMC. If you want to read the whole site page it's here: The following is the "short hairs" or the website that talked to the BB Rooting issue, but as I wrote above the files for the Rooting are missing from. Rooted and running XBMC with Kodi, you don't need a "Server" clone, you've got the best, XBMC, what Boxee "OS" was forked from by the jerk who started Boxee and never paid or provided Root access to Boxee as the Terms of XBMC required. If someone has them, post it, if your a qualified hardware coder, lets all work together. There was a claim that it was done, but the files are missing from this site. I suggest that the ultimate solution is Root you BB. Besides, how long will someone (if they could make something work) keep it running, who's going to cover the expenses and who can afford a "pipe" (big bandwidth connection) that will be required for all the BB users? My wife worked at D-Link USA for nearly 18 years and the execs there laughed at the idea a cloned server is even possible. I've been hearing about a replacement D-Link Server for Boxee Box for over 5 years now. ![]()
