How to use Boxee torrent client?

**darrendavid** · July 14th, 2009, 11:35 PM

Hi all-

I've heard rumors of a Boxee torrent client, but I can't find it in the app anywhere. What's the trick here? I'm running Boxee 0.9.13.6684 on Windows.

Thanks in advance,
Darren David

OK, I figured out how to browse to the torrent RSS that I added in the Feeds page on the Booxe website (in Applications > My Video Feeds), and was able to click "Download" for the torrents. Now, is there any way to see download progress? And where do they show up once they're downloaded?

Thanks,
Darren David

The Windows version of Boxee doesn't have a torrent client. There have been a few posts on this, but there has been no official response that I know of on whether the Windows version is ever going to get one.

I wish they'd put a torrent client in the Windows version.

If you ask me, the linux version has the 2up on the windows version with the torrent client and the hardware acceleration =)

Welp, maybe I need to set up the box to dual boot into ubuntu and win7...
