Boxee Firmware Upgrade Fails To Deliver Netflix Or Hulu Plus
Boxee update but nothing too exciting
Christmas has come early for Boxee Box media device customers. Well, kind of. The box has received an upgrade to it’s firmware, but users eager to get premium tv content from Netflix and Hulu Plus will be cursing Santa.
The new firmware contains a lot of bug fixes and a few tweaks rather than a big upgrade. As explained on the Boxee blog. Things like A-Z scrollbar addition for file searching, hourly scans of any connected source such as USB stick, browsing enhancments and for users that happen to be wearing 3D specs, improved visibility.
The Boxee internet connected device retails for $200 and can be used to play media files from the home network in glorious HD and has access to a limited number of online services.
It comes to something when the most exciting features for D-Links Boxee are the bug fixes to stop your hardware crashing! Owners had been complaining of crashing whilst playing MP4 files or indexing videos and issues with the HD option.
Boxee owners were hoping for Hulu and Netflix additions so they can stop just watching Youtube videos, but it looks like that will have to wait.
