three years ago, the Boxee Box - a set-top box designed to run the Boxee HTPC environment - was a pretty cool little device. Even though it was somewhat crippled from the get-go, the Boxee Box had a lot of neat features including a remote with a QWERTY keyboard, the ability to stream media over a home network, and automatic scraping of IMDB for proper info for all your torrented media. Team Boxee recently left for Samsung, and the severs have been shut down, but that doesn't mean your Boxee Box has outlived its usefulness. Here's a few hacks to get your Boxee Box up and running again, sent in by [Ryan]. Last year at DEFCON 20, [GTVHacker] demonstrated two ways to get root on the original Boxee Box. The first is a software root method that runs a shell script on every boot. The second is a far more elegant hardware modification that involves cutting two traces and soldering wires to a UART adapter. Root is fine, but what the Boxee Box really needs is an update to its media player. Boxeehack does just this and only requires a USB stick for installation. Boxeehack puts back some of the default XMBC functions that were removed from the Boxee Box, and gives anyone running this media center root. It may be old and unsupported, but there's still plenty of life left in the Boxee Box. They're also pretty cheap, so if you're looking for a small media player for your TV, you might want to think about picking one of these boxes up.

Great little player, combined with a NAS with RSS torrent support and the Netflix app and Spotify app's it's a great device with. But I'm open to suggestions for better alternatives?
