Boxee Box Media Player

The first week with my Boxee Box from Dlink I spent playing online content. This week I am testing out the media playback of this little gadget. Almost every file I tried played perfectly and I did not have any issues. There have been some Boxee users how have had a few problems get some file types to play back. The encoding could have something to do with these problems. In the most popular encoding formats playback on Boxee is perfect.

The content I watch through Boxee is mostly streaming media, but I would like to get more local content that I can store on a hard drive and watch any time I want. It would be nice to rip my DVD collection and have every movie ready to play through Boxee. With digital files you can watch as many times as you want and not have to worry about scratching your discs.

There are other media players on the market and I have looked at a few different models, but I like Boxee for the great codec support and online streaming. As a build a better digital collection Boxee will make it a simple task to get these files to play on my TV properly. As I explore more of the features in my Boxee Box I hope to review some of the apps shortly.
