If you’re not familiar with Linux/Mac or building from source, this is the option you need to use.Īs long as you have Boxee+Hacks installed, getting XBMC on the Boxee Box is very simple. 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.
Boxee repositories 2015 how to#
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. Luckily the demand was still there, and a fork of Boxee+Hacks was created and is still being actively developed and enhanced.
Boxee repositories 2015 update#
The original developer of the Boxee+Hacks repository probably gave up on the Boxee Box and therefore has not made any updates in about 10 months or more (last update was Feb 2013). The original method and updates to the Boxee Box was called Boxee+, later it was renamed to Boxee+Hacks (assuming trademark issues). The new, and still actively developed fork, website, and forums is: The original Boxee+Hacks Repository, website, and forums was: The easiest and most feasable way to root the Boxee Box is using the software method which I will describe below.
How to root the D-Link Boxee BoxĪt DEFCON20 GTVHacker demonstrated two ways to get root on the Boxee Box, a software method that runs a shell script every boot, and a hardware modification that requires the user to cut two traces and solder wires to a UART adapter. Well luckily someone found an exploit and was able to gain root, which has now enabled us to be able to root the Boxee Box, and install XBMC. Not to mention the fact that Boxee and D-Link violated the GPL and would not provide root access to the device even though they were using Open Source code from XBMC. What few updates were released had problems they refused to fix, and eventually they ended up just dropping all support for the Boxee Box to focus on their newer release with the Boxee Cloud as those customers are now left high and dry after Samsung purchased Boxee Box and basically gave the middle finger to existing customers.
I originally purchased the Boxee Box because I was using, and liked, the Boxee fork of XBMC…unfortunately the support from Boxee was horrible, and they basically in my opinion didn’t care about their customers. The available rescue options include restoring the GRUB bootloader after a Windows installation, Linux and Windows password resets, and Linux file system checks.If you happened to be one of the ones (like me) who jumped on board with purchasing the first generation Boxee Box manufactured by D-Link, you probably ended up being just as disapointed as I was.
