Family-ify

[neal]

Hi there,

I'm trying to keep Boxee as family friendly as possible... Just wondering if anyone knows how to disable the "xxx" video channel in the Internet Videos section...

Thanks!

there is no 'official' way to do this, as of the moment.

however, until the boxee team offers a clean feed, you can use this.

in your sources.xml file replace:


<source>
<name>Video Podcasts</name>
<path>rss://rss.boxee.tv/video.xml/</path>
<thumbnail>Q:/media/defaultrss.png</thumbnail>
<private>false</private>
</source>


with:


<source>
<name>Video Podcasts</name>
<path>rss://dl.getdropbox.com/u/169651/.feeds/boxee-video-clean.xml/</path>
<thumbnail>Q:/media/defaultrss.png</thumbnail>
<private>false</private>
</source>


you can find sources.xml on linux in:
~/.boxee/UserData/profiles/[USERNAME]/
on mac:
~/Library/Application Support/BOXEE/UserData/profiles/[USERNAME]/

Thanks a lot!

i've updated the feed location, as i'm not sure when the boxee team is going to offer an official one.

let me know when you change to the final one, so i can delete the old one... i have no plans to change it again, so you should be good from here on out.

Where is the sources.xml file found on the apple tv?

ok, nevermind, I found it. Its the same as on the mac:
~/Library/Application Support/BOXEE/UserData/profiles/[USERNAME]/

Is there something liker this for the newer version....changing this bit of xml in the sources file doesn't seem to work anymore

[agentlame]

it's no longer called 'video channels'... look for 'video podcasts'.

i'll update it.
