[Released!!!] Navi-X for Boxee!!!

[Ozpeter]

Glad to hear it's back up. It's one of the key features of the Boxee Box for us and I suspect a great many other users.

Just FYI: the Justin.tv live feeds still seem to be broken. Everything else I've tried seems to work fine.

For those interested in knowing, here are our stats that Lunarpages can't seem to handle... roughly 6.8 million hits a month, about 7000+ users a day and 90GB a month of JUST text data for playlists... crazy right? iRoNBiLL

Very sad...

Navi-X just links to content... Boxee plays it back and buffers it so don't look at us... seeking is also a Boxee function as well... If anything, tell us what country you are in, how is your connection setup and does it playback in the browser and I can help you figure out the issue. Also tell me where the source is and well have a look. iRoNBiLL

If a show just quits on you, try holding Alt and typing in the time on the boxee remote. For example, a show I was watching quit at about 15 min, so holding alt I pressed 0015 and it brought me right back there. May not work for everything but it's worth a shot.

Is there any way that you can add the ability to save searches to favorites? I've searching "Futurama" on Videofriender.com and I'd love to be able to save that search so I can have access to it without having to retyping it every time. This is the best application in Boxee in my opinion, good work.

Thanks,
Andy

As a new found Boxee Box lover, I'd just like to extend my hand to the team that made all this possible. Navi-X is one of the GREATEST things out there atm. Here in Australia it makes it hard to use services like netflix and hulu but Navi-X is probably even better. Just being able to search and then stream through the BB is amazing. Hats off to you guys and if you do decide to run a donation collection, I'll make sure I put some money in!

Thanks again.

p.s. the 'alt' thing to jump through a movie is great!

Looks like it's down again.... time to look for a new hosting provider IMO

The Navi-X service is just fine! PLEASE PEOPLE... don't say the Navi-X service is out... i will make this announcement if it is necessary. I am constantly checking on the functionality of the site lately and it appears the issue has been fixed. If you are still having issues, please reach out to us at http://navix.turner3d.net for support.

Here are the details of the outage if anyone is interested in seeing them:

The issue has been resolved at this time. Apparently our primary playlist script was burning up resources because someone linked from a 1 item playlist to another 1 item playlist that was invalid and it caused a recursive loop... programming logic has been fixed and it should not do this again... this has absolutely nothing to do with lack of server and bandwidth resources, but a script error and over-zealous admins at Lunarpages... noobs.
