Boxee: Open Source Media Center for Mac
Screenshots
Boxee is an open source media center designed for Mac users, offering a glossy interface and seamless integration with the Apple remote. It is a revision of the popular media center XBMC, with a modern look and additional features.
When using Boxee on a big screen with a remote control, it brings all your media together in one place. It scans your local Movies, Music, and Pictures folders, displaying cover art, reviews, and synopses for your content. You can also link Boxee to streaming platforms like Netflix, Hulu, and YouTube to watch online content.
However, there are some limitations to consider. Boxee can only be used in full-screen mode, which can be inconvenient for users who prefer to multitask. Additionally, if you use an Apple remote with Boxee, it may not work with other apps while using the media center.
Overall, Boxee offers an attractive interface and convenient media management for Mac users with a big screen and an Apple remote. However, if you don't have these specific requirements, you may not find it particularly exciting.
