Yesterday I started sniffing traffic from my Boxee Box in hopes of developing a fake boxee server to replace the official servers that just went down. But then I thought maybe someone has already done this. Turns out "cigamit", who used to help with Boxee Hacks and ran boxeed.in forums, was already working on this years ago.
He has a somewhat-working server that I hope to collaborate with him on, with the end result being that we can restore necessary functionality and get these boxes working again. Some initial testing fixes the "boxee offline" issues. But i'll need to make some changes to get logging in working (just dummy credentials) and the apps listing back.
I'll toss any updates in here. cigamit is away for a week, so likely end of the month i'll have something working.
Requirement will be that you can modify your network's DNS tables, and add an override to the new server for any requests to old boxee.tv urls.
