I am exceptionally novice when it comes to using the command line etc. so I have some issues setting up the script. I cant seem to get my boxee paired, I get the error message "Nos JSON object could be decoded"

However, assuming this was correct after all I went on to the next step. the startup folder for windows seemed to be:

“%systemdrive%\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup”

which sent me to
“C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup”

when I wrote it in the adress bar of windows explorer. I copied init.traktforboxee there and tried to run the chmod command in the windows cmd, i wrote:

“chmod a+x C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup/init.traktforboxee”

but I got the message “chmod is not recognized as an internal or external command operable program or batch file”. I then tried writing the same using python command window,but it “replied”:

“syntax error: invalid syntax”

and the x in “init.traktforboxee” has been “marked” with ^. After googleing a little bit more I got the feeling that chmod is not neccessary in windows?

Moving on. the last problems occured when i started editing the init-file.

APP_PATH (is this the path to the “intit.traktforboxee”-file, or the traktforboxee.py-file?)

Also, I could not find the PID-file in the traktforboxee-folder. I don’t understand the deafult_opts=”–daemon” thing in the init-file either

I’m sorry for all the questions, but I really want to get this stuff to work. I love both my boxee box and Trakt and I really want them to work together.
