On the resolution front you’ll get full 1080p, and all the resolutions up to that to support your TV and a host of audio formats like Dolby.Īs for formats supported on the media front it includes: FLV/On2 VP6 (FlV/F4V/M4V), H.264 aVC (TS/AVi/MKV/MOV/M2TS/ MP4), VC-1 (TS/AVI/MKV/WMV), MPEG-1 (DAT/MPG/MPEG), MPEG-2 (MPG/MPEG/VOB/TS/TP/ISO/IFO), MPEG-4 (MP4/AVI/MOV), DivX 3/4/5/6 (AVI/MKV), Xvid (AVI/MKV), WMV9 (WMV/ASF/DVR-MS). Boxee offers a dedicated iPhone app, while iPad users are serviced via a number of third party offerings including the very good Rowmote. Pairing is quick and simple allowing you button or gesture control, but the overall experience is lacking slightly with you having to finger the cursor across the screen multiple times like a bad mouse on a small mouse pad. IPhone or iPad owners can turn their device into a Boxee remote as long as it's on the same network. The keys are rubbery, but well spaced out and comfortable to use, and within the button layout are four arrow keys for navigation so you don’t have to keep turning the remote over to navigate around the screen.

This is HDMI and HDMI only, but that HDMI cable (included in the box) does carry the audio stream too. The device runs near silently (there is some noise) powered by an Intel Atom processor that is good enough for the job, but not enough to make everything super fast.Ĭome to the remote, and rather than a cheap-looking off-the-shelf OEM offering, Boxee has taken a dual approach. Ports include Ethernet, HDMI, optical, stereo audio out and two USB sockets. It’s a combination of matt and gloss black and bright lime green to accentuate the design, complete with a glowing logo on the front. There is an SD card reader on the side and connections for your TV around the back. Put simply Boxee Box is a media streamer that lets you play any content you have locally on a USB drive, network or SD card, or alternatively stream content directly from the net and services like YouTube, BBC’s iPlayer or Channel 5’s On Demand service to name but a few. Rather than designed to be hidden in amongst the clutter that resides in your TV stand, the Boxee Box is a cube that looks like it's sinking into the surface you have it on.
