Hi, I'm getting this black bar at the bottom of all of the menus. It goes away in the Settings menu, and the Files menu. The bar cuts off the bottoms of the last row of videos.

btw, what macs (video cards) are you using. i have boxee on my 2008 macbook white. it's definitely an opaque overlay on the bottom of the screen that is just showing up completely black.

0.9.20.10408 hasn't fixed this issue for me and I've updated the bug with specifics that they requested. so, another month of a cut off screen. poo.

Next version of boxee is now out today and this still isn't fixed. there's a running bug and we've given what they've requested. Real pain in the arse as boxee's usability is really diminished with your library being cut off all the time.

Just installed OSX 10.6.3 and there must have been a graphics driver fix that now has solved this issue in Boxee. :)

Case closed.
