I would live to see more kids content to keep my kids happy. I have not been very popular since I dropped cable. I see PBS Kids is on the requested list I wonder if Nick Jr and playhouse Disney could be added they have shows that they stream from their web site. Thanks a lot for the great work. My wife is now happy she can watch the national news shows after the kids go to bed. She used to DVR it and watch it when we had cable now she can just go to it and watch it.

I just added archive.org - one of the BEST web sites on the net.....
I will check it out when I get home BUT have you given any thought to accessing their stremaing library of live music - specifically their Grateful Dead archives (thousands of shows from the sixtys to 1995 - many of them origional soundboard mixes)

The latest Mad Money didn't crash anything, but you got only a millimeter or two of progress bar and it gave up and went back to the episode menu with Play highlighted. Pressed play a few times, same result.

I agree. I am really looking forward to PBS Kids but would love to see more kids content added. It would also be extremely cool to see some railway content. Thanks for doing this! Is it easy to learn? Maybe others can add to it??

I haven't looked at Disney yet, but I've been running into a lot of issues with PBS Kids and Nick. Nick has a handful of podcasts, but none of them have been updated in almost a year, so I didn't think they'd be worth publishing. PBS Kids just plain doesn't work. I don't know if it's something about the way the videos were encoded or what. Dragonfly TV is the only PBS Kids feed I have been able to make work at all. Kid friendly content is definitely on my to do list. just have to find some worthwhile stuff to include.

Would it be ok to send you a list of podcasts and you see if they will work? I've done some searching but most of the ones I've found that sound interesting no longer work. :?: I'll try to find something for you, if that's ok.

Are you certain of it not having NF "at launch"?
Last I heard, they would be supporting Netflix but not at launch, and Hulu support is very bad. Hulu supposedly drops you every so often while you are watching video.
EDIT: This is from the Boxee Facebook feed
Boxee Box by D-Link Selling should begin some time in late spring and for under $200On the release Boxee Box will not support NetFlix or Hulu, they are working to change both issues.
