XM/Sirius on Boxee?
Not sure if they would allow it, but it would be awesome if eventually boxee could play streaming XM/sirius just as you can from their websites.

Inappropriate?I've been working on trying to get Sirius plugins working on Boxee...right now the only holdup is that Boxee/XBMC's internal media player can not handle the HTTP addresses that make up an authenticated Sirius channel stream.
I'm trying to think up a way to "alias" these channel addresses after they are created so that the media player can play them. Theoretically, this could work... but at the moment I'm stuck.
I’m perplexed

Inappropriate?I've also been working independently to develop a plugin for this on the XM side, however as was said above, the internal players in xbmc/boxee hate something about the type of stream xm/sirius is sending out. It's so weird because the stream will play just fine in VLC or Windows Media Player.
I've tried everything and have scoured the internet and as of right now I'm assuming it's hopeless unless someone can fix the stream handling of the internal players. -
Inappropriate?we'll do another content survey soon. if XM/Sirius get strong support than we'll work to bring it to boxee

YAY! I would love to see this. Sirius is one of the few online streams that I use that are not in Boxee yet
