    This option is not available in the Boxee Box (and I suspect, shouldn't be necessary). That message is for those running the Boxee software on Windows / OS X / Linux computers.

    Ahh ok, probably just false message to boxee box owners. As for NHL GameCenter, im guessing the stuttering video quality is out of my hands? There's no configuration i can do to improve it? i hear if you use the 'browser that might make it better'?

    There do seem to be issues with the live games, Boxee is aware of them, I believe.

    Is this what you're seeing? http://jira.boxee.tv/browse/BOXEE-8326

    how do you make the boxeebox nhl centerice app to go 'true full screen', when i click on the 'full screen button', it still shows the 'rewind/forward/play/sound' bar on the bottom. I cant seem to get rid of it.

    Unlike in Windows nhlgamecenter, it auto dissapears.
