  1. support more video formats : VOB, MTS

    Panasonic store videos in MTS format, it's popular
    Ripping a DVD outputs VOB, popular as well
    On the road video reviewing would be very useful as we can do that in Dropbox and get easily accustomed to such facility.

  2. BUG in the move operation: it takes 1000x longer on desktop than on website

    on any desktop moving a file is instant
    on an iphone moving a photo to an album is instant
    therefore we expect instant effect of moving operation
    in box that is not the case : move takes considerable time
    for example I tried to move 200GB on a box drive where all items were online only, first the window appeared trying to enumerate the files, which kept climbing, as if it was doing the move one file at a time
    then, as nothing was happening i stopped the operation
    to test if move was a copy+delete like on dropbox i…

  4. Search API for exact match using hash

    If you have a local file and need to know if the file exists in Box, the filename search isn't reliable to find the exact match. For example, there could be many logo.jpg files. Since the sha1 of the files are known, it would be great to expose it to the search API to find the exact file match.
    This would be very useful for tools that help users migrate to Box without creating many duplicates of files.

  5. Add "Last Accessed Date" as a file property

    Many cleanup/archival processes could be run via the API if this date was quickly accessible. Currently, one needs to look at events or reports to determine this date which is not feasible at scale for reports and Events API only goes back one year.

  8. Download 'cart' or 'shopping basket'

    A basket feature would be nice – Sometimes we have to select one or two files from multiple folders, and to have a basket as placeholder before downloading would be useful.

    This be something similar to like when you online shop. Instead of “buying items” you are selecting the items you want to download from different locations and then selecting download.

  9. [Fix] Poor support for moving drive and recognizing existing content

    I had to disconnect a drive and Box sync broke and has been a massive pain to get working again. When the drive was reconnected, Box couldn't reuse the old folder, and once it started a new folder, I didn't appear to have the option to change it.

    I uninstalled and reinstalled Box sync so I could point it at the original directory it used with all the files still in place. It did not recognize any of the files. Instead, it renamed all the folders, downloaded duplicates of everything, and then ran out of space on my cloud storage…

  11. Wrap or hover long owner's name to display whole name

    Longer file or Owner names do not display the whole name in the UI
    For example Users&Groups > Groups > "Group name" > Edit users.
    If owners name like BoxTestAccount(Bostestacconut+new@box.com),
    It shows BoxTestAccount(Boxtestaccount@box...
    if similar name exists, the user cannot distinct the name.

  13. Submitting a Support Ticket

    When submitting a ticket with the support site, add the option to submit a ticket specifically for issues with the support site itself. It's possible to classify tickets this way on our end, but not on the user's apparently.

  14. I would like an option to increase the 5GB individual file size limit on non-business accounts.

    Hi Box Team,

    I run a small media production business (of one), and rely on box for sharing video files with clients. I do my best to keep files under the 5GB limit, but occasionally, I need to share longer/larger files. I've asked the sales team about a tiered plan under the personal account options that would allow for an increase on the limit, but at the moment, that option only exists for business and enterprise accounts. The business account tiers don't make sense for me since I only have one employee (there is a three seat minimum that would…

  15. Update removed the ability to view notifications on a single page. You have to scroll through them from the top tool bar. Please add back!

    The newest update removed the ability to view notifications (@mentions, etc) on a single page. You have to scroll through them from the top tool bar. This makes these difficult to managed properly. This needs to be added back ASAP!

  16. Make web app uploader better at handling file changes.

    I just uploaded a bunch of photos and realized a couple of them were the wrong rotation, so I corrected that while the upload continued.

    When I checked the files on box, I found that every one of the files I had just uploaded had gone to version 2, even though they were new to box, and I only changed 2 of the 12 files. Indeed, due to the timing, one of the photos that I rotated was still the wrong way round, even though it had gone to version 2.

    It seemed like box attempted a naive sync of…

  17. Don't have incidence on rights in a tree when rights are updated in sub-folders

    When You put rights on a root folder, if You need to change the rights for an user in sub-folder, the impact is on the whole tree and this is not really cool... The best way is to keep the rights functionality but to forget the incidence when You change rights on sub-folders.
    It's very important !

  19. @Mention Someone When Replying to an Annotation in a Box Note

    iIt would be nice to be able to @mention someone in a Annotation within the Box Note. I know you can do it in the comments, but if a note is lengthy and you want to put someone's nose right to where you want them to look (or a tasks you've assigned them to), this would be nice to have.
