Another Apple TV update has disabled the popular free media-streaming Boxee software. The side-effect of the Apple TV 2.3.1 update was reportedly unintentional on Apple’s part.
Although the specific conflict is yet unknown, Apple sent the update last night to all Apple TV owners. One potential solution is to disable automatic updates.
This isn’t the first time an update of Apple’s increasingly-popular device which streams video and photos from your computer to your TV has caused problems for Boxee fans.
In late 2008, Boxee developers released a fix when Apple distributed the Apple TV 2.3 update.
Boxee, which had gained popularity, recently suffered a set-back after Internet TV service Hulu axed a distribution agreement. Hulu said it took the action after several partner requests.
