Thread: Democracy Now! App

  1. #11

    Default Democracy Now! app not working

    Hey folks, I am a recent purchaser of a boxee box (upgraded to the latest software release). Although I can connect to this repo and I see Democracy Now as a possible package to install, my box dives me an error when I try to install it.

    Is anyone else having this problem? Does anyone know of a solution?

    Thanks,
    Badr

    This app appears to be over two years old and probably hasn't been updated to make use of the required signing process to work on the Boxee Box.

    Default Democracy Now! app not working

    It looks like the Democracy Now! app was created and donated by an individual, and is not an "authorized" app, and is not maintained by Democracy Now!

    One workaround might be to subscribe to a DN! podcast, download that to a local folder, and use Boxee to add that folder as a media source.

    Podcast options are here:
    http://www.democracynow.org/podcasting
    the Miro option points to the bittorrent file, which looks best on big screens.

    You may also like the full-screen stream available daily at the Democracy Now! website, http://democracynow.org

    Boxee has an RSS app that you can just add podcast feeds to (also manageable via http://www.boxee.tv/feeds after logging in).

    Thanks! I'll give the RSS feed a try. Alas, when I try to view democracy now in the boxee browser the browser always crashes.

    The resolution is on the low side, but otherwise the RSS feed works great. Many Thanks!
