Dinggus Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 Does anyone have an AppleTV with Boxee on it? If so, how well does it run? I'm looking for a better way to save money, yet watch my favorite TV shows, and figured this would be a good idea, since I have tons of movies on my iMac that I can just stream to the ATV itself.

Guest Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 You can install Plex on the new Apple TV when jailbroken. Nothing for Boxee as of yet. http://forums.plexapp.com/index.php/topic/20051-plex-client-for-apple-tv-2g/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dinggus Posted November 8, 2010 Author Share Posted November 8, 2010 I was thinking about getting the first generation one. So, should I get the second generation? Boxee so far has all the shows my wife and I watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 9, 2010 Share Posted November 9, 2010 Boxee is just an interface. Pretty much all the plugins available on Boxee you can get with Plex too (Hulu, Netflix, YouTube etc). Check it out on your Mac: http://www.plexapp.com/ However the ATV Plex app is a work in progress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dinggus Posted November 10, 2010 Author Share Posted November 10, 2010 I downloaded Plex, but the Hulu plug-in when I search, the show my wife and I watch doesn't come up in the list. I checked Hulu's list and they stream the show by hot linking to CW website. I was looking at Hulu Plus, and it's suppose to be coming out for the xbox 360, which is what I have. Anyone know when?

Dinggus Posted November 14, 2010 Author Share Posted November 14, 2010 I think I'm going to get the ATV 2nd Gen, and jailbreak it since it's suppose to be an iOS and you can have apps, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
