Hey all, I created BoxPlayer as a sideproject because my music collection got too big for some of my devices to fully sync; now you won't have to store all your music locally! Be sure to check out the native BoxPlayer for Mac app, which supports media keys and notifications: https://boxplayer.io/download Let me know what you think. Cheers, Dennis

@denniskvdm When I go to settings in native app (settings file path to music folder), there is no button to go back to main view. Adding Grace Notes to fetch music metadata would be great too. But it works great. I still don't understand why Dropbox hasn't moved beyond file storing/syncing and hasn't made moves to become the default media center for playing videos/music and viewing photos. So much of our data stuff is now on Dropbox and all I can do is browse my data in folders. So 2000... Carousel wasn't really solving a problem beyond time travel (finding older photos) and it has been sunset. There doesn't seem to be plans to improve access and management of the files we entrust Dropbox with.

@denniskvdm Any plans on open sourcing?

@gibberish absolutely, as its all client side is via angular, you could potentially get a copy by saving the web page.

Recommend changing the logo, looks almost identical to youtube music

@jimjjordan that's so crazy! I originally made this logo in June 2015, but I never bothered to finish this project. That being said, I guess I'll have to create another logo :)

This looks great! Would love to see it Open Sourced (as you said in your other comment) so I can point it to something other than Dropbox :)
