Cross-Platform Boxee Remote Written in Python

[judsonm123]

I wrote a gui for my friend's Boxee in Python. Largely, I utilized agentlame's code posted here:

I also utilized the gui tutorial on this site:

To run the remote, you will need Python and PyQt4. We have successfully run the remote on Ubuntu and Windows 7.

I removed some of agentlame's functionality to auto-connect. However, I did include add the functionality to use keyboard inputted text and to manually specify your host and port. The Python source file is in the zip file attached to this post.

I hope you like it.

Btw, I am new to this sort of thing so please post if you use it and have any comments.

Is there a way to specify Host/Port from the commandline when launching UDBox?
