This can be found here: with complete and very well written instructions. The final step to really have control over the Boxee is to install the latest hack. When you save this configuration, you should magically get past the networking step and now you can create a User Profile. Hopefully you know enough about your network to enter these values. This will move you to a screen where you can enter IP, Subnet, Gateway, and DNS. Now that you have a DNS server running, select the option to “manually configure the network” on your Boxee. Here is a link to his blog where he describes the setup. If you don’t know Docker, (or otherwise don’t want to use this approach) you can also use the public server hosted by Nicholas Serra to achieve the same result.If you have trouble, just smoosh everything onto one line:ĭocker run -d -name dnsmasq -p 53:53/udp -p 5380:8080 -p 80:80 -log-opt "max-size=100m" -e "HTTP_USER=boxee" -e "HTTP_PASS=box" -e "EXTERNAL_IP= 192.168.1. NOTE: The backslashes are meant to allow the various args to run on new lines. A web interface for the DNS server will be running at EXTERNAL_IP:5380 and the credentials will be HTTP_USER and HTTP_PASS. Make sure to change the EXTERNAL_IP value to the IP of the machine that will be running the server. Launch the Docker image of a small DNS server created by HazWard. This step involves creating an account, downloading and installing and finally running Docker. When you get this IP, you choose Manual Configuration on your Boxee at that startup screen and enter the IP as the DNS server. Essentially you need an IP address of a server that will give that heartbeat response to the Boxee when it pings the specific URLs. This step is a bit harder especially if you are not very technically savvy.
