I'll join the request for RTVE.es (Public Spanish TV) integration into Boxee. That would be wonderful. I am using Boxee on AppleTV and can't tell you how excited I am about what you guys are doing. It would be great if a user (with some development skill) could be able to re-format the rtve.es outputs and make them work as an Boxee's input source. Instead of waiting for a Boxee's update. Is that doable?

My main interest is watching HD movies. Is Apple TV even capable of doing 1080p?
I just installed yesterday, so feeling my way around.

LIVE stuff would be really nice... support for USTREAM, Stickam and Qik services/streams would be cool additions. I would second the need for a LIVE news stream (or streams) like Fox/CNN/MSNBC, etc.

Thanks!

SPORTS.

To the be TRUE alternative to cable/SAT you've got to find a way to get college and NFL football on Boxee.

I have no clue how, other than ESPN360... too bad you can't just talk to the NCAA conferences (SEC, BIG10, PAC10 ect) and get them to share their signal online for boxee users. That would be best b/c all of the conferences now have their own channels and their agreements (I believe) allow them to use the broadcast as they see fit....

Anyway, that's the only reason I have a Comcast account to watch my college team every Saturday. Once that is covered you've got the entire market.

In the USA, I want to watch all the German language TV programs/movies/news/documentaries, etc. on this website:

http://www.arte.tv/de/Willk...

I want to bypass the expensive and crappy American cable TV channels..... I do not want to have to pay $$$$ for channels I do not want. I want to be able to choose exactly what I want to watch.

Stuff found online is much, much better quality. Please make sure it is much cheaper than cable. Any streaming German language TV stations would be very nice.

YouPorn and RedTube. I know it's not as popular as any of the Primetime networks, but I think adult content has its place. A plugin very similar to that for YouTube would probably be about right.

I would like to see the live games streamed on NFL.com show up in Boxee.

YES! Hulu and Boxee are great! What its missing is a way to log into my hulu account. Without that I can't see content for viewers 17 and over....
It's always sunny in Philadelphia is one such show, not porn silly people!

Netflix watch instantly/Silverlight would be fantastic!

VPN, so those outside the US can get Hulu, etc!

ABC shows would be great. Lost on Boxee would be awesome. Also, a web browser would be great too!

@Noah we need to find a way to enable users to add content from all over the world. no way we could cover it all.

Re: boxee blog » Hulu, CBS, Comedy Central and what’s next

Noah — Thu, 06 Nov 2008 17:59:22 -0000

How about, for us Australians, ABC iview?

Re: boxee blog » Hulu, CBS, Comedy Central and what’s next

Dan — Thu, 06 Nov 2008 01:53:51 -0000

How about a live streaming news station? (msnbc, cnn, etc) would really make all tv obsolete.

It would great to see the new Netflix instant watch using Silverlight 2.0 supported.

So one thing that is a quick win, functionality wise on the internet video section is geo targeting.
Allow 3rd party content providers (aka me) place specific video feeds in Boxee internet section based on their IP location.
I work a for a content provider who has many free Media RSS feeds that could be slot in for the continent of africa. ( however this is not your big hitter on target markets)
So being outside of the continent of USA I cannot view HULU without a US IP (should be configurable with a proxy)
I want to plug feeds into that video window now.
oh ..what are your skinning rules/prefernces?

I just started the netflix instant watch beta using the silverlight plugin on my laptop. I'd love to be able to use it on boxee too.

@Erik we're going to try and bring more International content in, as well as make it easier for developers to make their content available on boxee

Re: boxee blog » Hulu, CBS, Comedy Central and what’s next

Erik K Veland — Mon, 03 Nov 2008 07:46:12 -0000

There's too much focus on geolocated shows. It really blows having to go through proxies. Can we get some more focus on international shows? Not everyone here is an American.
