New Version of Boxee needs a little more love. :)

[Infinite]

So, the new version of Boxee is awesome. I am not knocking it. :)

Here is the short list of stuff needing attention IMHO: :)

On an AppleTV

with VIDEO_TS folders on a NAS I still get a loader when going to the next chapter. It would be great if it would cache the DVD chapters as something is playing
There is still no way to Navigate DVD menu's with the AppleTV remote
If you cycle the Music Visualization while a song is playing you can cause a crash.
Hulu seems to really chug on high quality video, and drops frames on lower quality streams. Audio always seems to be pretty solid. Some episodes seem to be better then others, but I haven't seen any video's not drop frames.


Performance is so much better in the new alpha.

Build 0.9.3940

- Hulu playback is much better.

I watched an entire episode of Family Guy that had extemely poor playback in the old version and 0.9.3940 played it beutifully.
I watched a lower quality episode of Airwolf, which had very good playback. finally an episode of American Dad that had a different codec that seems to play okay yesterday. Today it ran extremely well.


I would honestly have to compare playback to a Hulu player on the AppleTV to the actual website.

Bugs:
When playing Video_TS folders:

the progress bar can be incorrect when playing chapters
Loader still shows when changing Chapters
Some times on a chapter change the wrong audio track will play (ie switching from the audio track to a commentary track.
Can't navigate DVD menu
