That looks great! Hopefully that skin will spark some ideas as well...

I had an idea a while back for this exact thing...the posts were less then optimistic. I really hope this does happen though - would love an HD logo on my content :)

XBMC and Plex both have the ability to have subs off by default, I'm sure it will happen with boxee too :)

It would be cool if we could change the thumb like in Plex or XBMC, and have fanart too!

I hope so! This is one of the biggest downfalls of boxee! XBMC/Plex handles musis so easily, it doesn't even need to be scanned in to the library, it just reads all the tags from your iTunes...

I think Boxee should do some skins for sure! It is nice now, simple, but lacks that punch for a home theater system IMO.

Integrate new Hulu App into Boxee!

Hulu released their own desktop app for Mac and PC, and it would be really nice to integrate it into boxee. I have read on the blog that boxee has already messaged Hulu about this situation...I am putting this here to get the word out there to the users here, and maybe generate a little buzz.

Let;s get Hulu in boxee again...sure the Hulu feeds are a nice solution to the problems we have been having, but I must say this new Hulu App is really nice, and the quality of the picture seems to be better :)

Integrate iTunes with boxee - sync music, video, purchased content within iTunes Boxee app!

Integrate iTunes with boxee - sync music, video, purchased content within iTunes Boxee app!

This just occurred to me! In the side menu of boxee, there could be an iTunes area, which syncs up to your iTunes library, and you have iTunes within boxee, including album art (and everything else the way you organized it). I don't know how this would work for the Apple TV, but I can envision this within Mac or Windows versions.

This would be a better solution, and would take NO INDEXING, since everything is organized. Plus, we could have access to the iTunes store, and purchase TV shows, movies, music, etc. within boxee, and view it there as well.

Obviously, you would have to team up with Apple, but I feel they would be on board as long as they see an opportunity to increase profits (which they should)...

What do you guys think?

DVDs still work for me...but I must admit boxee gets very confused for a while, to the point where it freezes up for about a minute or so. There is definitely room for improvement here.

Disable subtitles by default, so they do not play automatically...

I have many ripped DVDs and Blu-Ray from my collection...I am crazy, and I like to rip the subtitles and add them to the file just in case a user wants to use them. However, each time a play a video within boxee, a subtitle track plays automatically. I feel there should be an option in Settings to turn off subtitles by default.

What do you guys think? Subtitles don't play automatically on a DVD or Blu-Ray, so why in boxee?

Unisonband replied on May 27, 2009 21:46 to the idea "Boxee should support Amazon Video On Demand" in boxee:

Amazon VOD is a great idea for a new app...it is better than Netflix, and has a wide variety of content. I personally would purchase a LOT of content if I could store it within boxee :)

Playlist.com - Online Music Service

Idea for a new application: Playlist.com

Playlist offers a wide database of high quality music, and allows you to build your own playlists, with no restrictions attached.

I absolutely love Pandora, but it is limited, and you do not have full control over what plays. With Playlist.com, you can custom build as many playlists you want.

What do you guys think? Playlist would be a great addition to boxee, don't you think?

Anyone up for trying to create the code necessary for this?

Maybe you guys don't know what fanart is...

The following links are some examples:

Ah man I wish I knew about source code and stuff, I would be happy to help. Unfortunately, I'm just a fan of Boxee, and love what you guys are doing! I'm also glad that this could be in the works for future releases :)

Labeling HD content in Boxee?

Is there a way to label your content High Def if it is, so you can distinguish it from SD stuff? I love the HD logo in iTunes when you rent or buy a movie...if this is not available in boxee yet this would be cool :) Imagine scrolling through your massive movie library, and just above certain movie posters lies a little HD logo...what do you think?

How about this management system for TV and movies? Specifically I would love a "Watched" and "Not Watched" category for TV and movies (I have a TB of content in Boxee, and this would make my life a lot easier lol)
