Windows Download?

[DannyDroid]

I just got an invite (Thank you Greg Day :D) .
I went to the download page but there is no Windows app listed.
Only Mac and Linux ):

Could someone point me to the windows download?

Thankyou.
Danny.

[tristansmith]

The windows client is in a pre-alpha so it is not widely available for download. you can sign up in this thread (http://forum.boxee.tv/showthread.php?t=2555) to be on the list once they start allowing more people in. Good luck!

[DannyDroid]

That's a bit bleh ): .
Owell, time to boot up Linux :P .

[lordnacho]

I got an email saying I was accepted for the alpha testing. But the link sends me to a login, which doesn't take my forum login and there's no place to create a new login.
Hrm? Was excited to test it out

You need a seperate boxee login (for the app and main website). PM me your email address if you need one.

[diederikm]

I just want to say that the whole 'windows version on 4th of December' is a big deception.

Why put it so big on the internets when you only invite 200 people to test/play with it.

I use a Mac and Linux for boxee but I told all my friends that there would be a windows version in the beginning of December, Disappointment!


This is no comment on the excellent software. I love it and hope to see it get even better.

So communication department; this comment is your's ;-)

[marcel]

we have restricted the windows version to small groups so we can make it stable ,there is another thread at http://forum.boxee.tv/showthread.php?t=2555 where you can sign up or sign up your friends ...

[DannyDroid]

But like I've said before, it has been leaked ): .

Do you know when this will be open to the other testers?

[agentlame]

what leaked?

[DannyDroid]

I PMed one of your staff (tsella) but has no replay.

It was uploaded to a site and was download a few times though the download as been removed, copys are out there.

(I think I still have a copy somewhere along with the user names and passwords if you would like them, and as far as I could tell, it was real)

If you would like any more detail then feel free to PM as I don't want to help anyone get there hands on something they shouldn't have.

[agentlame]

boxee is oss... not much anyone can do, but ask nicely for people to respect their wishes.

if people a desperate to be inconsiderate, what is anyone to do?

[tclancy86]

How do i get an invite for alpha?

[Brokenbrainedphil]

People so desperate for boxee for windows should consider compiling it, thats how I got it.

oh noes broken you opened up Pandora's box.

[ahoslc]

So Bstag does that give you working hulu and pandora?

[Brokenbrainedphil]

No, but hulu is not that hard... and 99% of what you need is already there...

[bstag]

So Bstag does that give you working hulu and pandora?

Well since broken was just talking about 9.9 i was not bring hulu or pandora radio into it. As trying to compile 9.11 on windows is more work in fixing code to even get it to compile. Just to watch it crash on python string runs and dealloc errors but i could go on and on. If you are inclined to do some coding work and fixing bugs in code you did not write then you can get hulu working. It has issues in the new persistent threading model for python that tends to blow everything up till you restart. Maybe i am getting into to much detail.

[Brokenbrainedphil]

I was referring only to 9.9
9.11 has some issues, but those issues are minor, they manifest as HUGE issues, but in reality are minor code issues.

9.9, with small changes can show hulu, without the fail at 4:40

One note...do not post in all caps...it is considered yelling :) .
There used to be a thread that had a signup list.

*Marcel...were did it get moved to, or do we have one anymore?*

[svhorizon]

I'm not Marcel but I signed up a couple weeks ago at his post here (http://forum.boxee.tv/showthread.php?t=5952).

Patiently waiting for that coveted invite,

I'm using an ATI video card, do I need to download the NVIDIA SDK also ? and if yes, is it the Direct3D or OpenGL one that I need?)

[Brokenbrainedphil]

The Nvidia SDK is for the OpenGL headers and libs, and yes, you need it.
It doesn't matter that you have an ATI card, if you have an OpenGL V1.3 or better video card, it is the fastest way to get OpenGL SDK.

Thanks, I will install the OpenGL SDK and wil revert if I need further help. (I might... it's been years since I last compiled a program !!!)

[Brokenbrainedphil]

no problem

Thinking of making a helper wrapper that takes all the guesswork out, just run, and forget it

[Brokenbrainedphil]

Any Luck bsauvage?

[marcel]

any luck...if you signed up and still not received an invite just pm ...

[bsauvage]

Not yet... I just finished to install all the progs... Will try to compile it tomorrow evening! Then I will let you know how it went.

Wish me luck !!!!

[Brokenbrainedphil]

Ok, Good luck :)

Please help out !!!!!

Well... 2 errors, and 72 warnings.
(I can't attach the log as it's too big)
Do you know how to fix those 2 errors ?


Error 5 error C3861: 'SDL_SetWidthHeight': identifier not found c:\users\benoit\desktop\boxee-0.9.9.5324\guilib\surface.cpp 987 guilib
Error 74 fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file '.\guilib\debug (sdl)\guilib.lib' XBMC XBMC


I had nearly the same errors when I tried to build the first time. For me, guilib wouldn't build beacause I had not properly set the location of the SDL libraries and includes in VC++. The libraries and headers are in the xbmc\lib\libSDL-Win32 path... when I set the library and include locations to point to the lib and include paths under the xbmc\lib\libSDL-Win32 path, I had a couple successful build in VC++2008 Express.

The only other thing I had to do to get an exe out was to disable the pre-build operations for the xbmc project. It kept wanting to run the SVN client. After setting the paths, that disabling of the pre-build actions got me the whole way.

I think I found the hint regarding the SDL paths on the XBMC wiki pages for compiling from source, so if I got it wrong, take a look there....

[Brokenbrainedphil]

read the readme....

BUILDROOT\xbmc\lib\libsdl-win32\readme.txt :)

[bsauvage]

Makes sense... I feel this is what's missing...
ok i found a tutorial about applying the diff patch... will try again....
I feel I'm getting so close!

Thank you very much all for your help.

[bsauvage]

I have the patch program (patch.exe) to apply the diff
I have the patch itself sdl_setwidthheight.diff

Now to which file in the SDL sources do I apply it ? I've tried sdl_video.h, sdl_video.c, sdl.c

None works... I have everytime the error:
Assertion failed: hunk, file ../patch-2.5.9-src/patch.c, line 354

Which I think means that I apply it to the wrong file

Can you please tell me which file I need to patch ?

Many thanks!

[bsauvage]

Problem solved, I did it on SDL_video.c and SDL_video.h

Actually the .diff file is pretty self-explanatory and it is easy to add the extra bit of code.

Now for the recompiling ... will update soon.

Open the solution file, and exclude the custom build event from the build process, and try again :)

[bsauvage]

I've looked into it (in the project build manager) but cannot see any 'custom build event'. Could you please be just a little bit more specific and tell me howto do that in Visual Studio 2008 ?

Sorry to be so ignorant ... but I don't want to give up!

[bsauvage]

Below is the XMBC for Windows .sln (is that the right one ?)
What do I need to do to it ?

Open MSVC, Open the Solution file in MSVC, right click XBMC, Click Properties...


See below...

Sorry for my slow replies, I've been working on DXVA support for XBMC...

I'm BrokenCodes on the XBMC forums...

[bsauvage]

Found it thanks to your help!

Yup it is working now... You don't have to worry about slow replies... it allowed me to learn in the process!

Thank you very much. About to try to make it run now ...

[bsauvage]

IT'S WORKING !!!!!

Version 0.9.9.$WCREV$ !!!!!!

Can't believe it.

Thank you soooo much.

Now one last question: you mentionned that the latest sources (0.9.11) are not yet compilable in windows. How come ?

[Brokenbrainedphil]

Where should I start?

Do you think that we will ever see this is Boxee? Would be so cool.

[seefoohieu]

I have the 0.9.9.5324, but it doesn't have any of the pandora apps, etc. I tried installing them through the app box and they don't even show up. So it got me thinking that I have an older version of the build. Please tell me if I do have the current alpha version. Thanks

That is the current alpha version. It is what I run and the Windows Invite download link has been updated only once with that version.

The newest version is public on June 23rd. Can't wait for the upgrade! :D

INtel core2 Quad 2.68MHZ

[marcel]

should run on the new version ..

[wyngnut]

Thread seems old, so is there a standard way to build on Windows now? I don't see much in the source.

Thanks!
