Public beta is currently open.

I've had a bit of free time recently so I decided to get back into coding a Subsonic app for Boxee. It's coming along much quicker than I expected. So I wanted to post my progress and get some potential testers. PM me if you're interested in testing. I plan to give private access to my repository in the next week.

I'll probably send the repo to those that are interested either this weekend or next depending on how busy I am.

EliteXen,

Hey this app looks great! I never heard of Sub-Box before but am definitely going to check it out. If you are looking for a repo to host your app let me know and we can set something up for you over at streamfree.tv!

Working great so far! I use subsonic on my android and work computers so I had it setup for a while now. Everything went smooth right off the bat with this app!

When i first tried to view the playlists/library the ok/enter button did nothing but after I backed out of the app and back in it worked.

I did get a little crackle noise in some of the tracks but nothing major. Is it possible to set this up so it buffers some of the track or the next track(s)? Not sure if this is setup like this already.. just curious

thanks again for making such an amazing app! Ive been hoping someone would do this so I can have all my subsonic playlists on boxee!

Awesome!!

edit: I am a total noob with xbmc plugins.. would this be possible to use in xbmc?

edit2: When you are browsing an album it only lists the track alphabetically instead of using the track number, Is there a setting im missing that can change this?
