New firmware available 1.1.0.19036

I figured that some form of miscommunication or language barrier issue would be the culprit for the screw up.

This is very very doubtful and putting any faith in it is approaching extreme silliness.

I won't talk about the EA process, but I can say that I've seen no evidence of language barrier issues in any bug reporting or investigating process. More silly that this thought by customers would be for anyone from Boxee to ever claim or admit to this.

This idea is also somewhat insulting to both EA testers and Boxee staff. To Boxee staff especially if it's in reference not to the testing and development, but to contract negotiations and interpretation.

Boxee can no longer read my from external hard drives, or even notice them. I even did a factory reset without much luck. Boxee also takes around 5 minutes to boot up. My hard drives are 2 & 4 TB formatted as HFS+. Reformatting is not an option for me, any ideas?

Solid interface improvements. More polish all around.

It's also good to see a relatively quick response to the sound issue. It may not be quick enough for some forum dwellers hitting reload waiting for a fix but in the grand scheme of things, a company recognizing an error and moving to correct it within a week is really quite responsive. Nice bounce back if they resolve this and give those that need the volume control an option.

I know my wife is enjoying it and and has given the thumbs up to drop our Dish subscription. That's going to save us $1000 over the next year (including the cost of the boxee box).

My three HFS (with journaling turned off) drives are small but were recognized under 1.0.4 and were also writable with 1.1.0.19x.

I did see a post that someone couldn't see their drives under 1.1.0.19X but turned journaling ON (as opposed to the instructions given to make them writable) and then they could at least SEE and read from the drives.

I know its not your solution but you might try it.....

What does Comcast have to do with it?

I had this problem, and turned journaling on as goose says; and it worked. But since journaling is on I can't write to the disc using SMB anymore.. I have been in contact with a guy at boxee, but I can't see a ticket for it at jira

Ditto. My Boxee hangs for a good two or three minutes on the grey screen at boot up. Also, for some reason, it doesn't recognize either of my attached HDD until it's been running for about 10 to 20 minutes.

Worked beautifully before the 1.1 update. WTF??
