Thread: I Need a Remote!

  1. #1

    Default I Need a Remote!

    My Boxee box remote died a little while ago, I cant get it to work despite putting in a new battery.

    I've been using my iPod touch as the remote with the Boxee app.... but I've forgotten my iPod at work!!

    is there a web interface i can load up to control my Boxee? seems to me i seen a GUI once upon a time...

    You can use a USB keyboard and mouse for now -- and you might want to check out the backlit/trachpad Rii remote on Amazon (the 2.4 RF version) - not the bluetooth model

    Did you try the trick of turning off your Boxee Box and unplugging the power adapter and all the cables for a minute? This resets the RF transceiver in the Box which is what a lot of people find is the problem when their remote just stops working.

    After you power off, remove the power cord, attach the cord, and power on the box, you should then re-pair the remote.
