Great, I paste a link and the ticket is submitted BEFORE i have finished writing it, and you can't even edit (piece of crap board)

These were the link examples.

(this may be down when they are not running live)

If you just save the playlist.m3u8 out and click on it from a file location Boxee Box crashes and reboots.

Either by placing the m3u8 on a share, or a windows URL link on a share, and then later navigate to where they are and clicking on them.

How am i supposed to do it?

Wow brillaint, you admit your shit doesn't work and then close the thread. How about getting a job you'd actually want to do.


Also CANNOT REPRODUCE?! It would take you all of 10 seconds to reproduce this!! Of course that would be 10 seconds less to play Diablo 3

PJ, HLS streams can be played smoothly within applications in boxee,
the boxee player can play HLS only when they are implemented in an application.
for more information please go to http://developer.boxee.tv/Examples:_HLS_(HTTP_Live_Streaming)

Thanks
