This works beautifully.
However, the remote IR dock will not control the menus
Is this version designed to work with the apple dock?

Have Front Row runnning
on my 20″ 2.0Ghz 2GB Mem iMac and Love It!
Although I changed from the F8 Key to F1
F8 is used by Tiger.

I did exactly what is details in the instructions, and it works great. FrontRow launches on my iBook .. however, I still have to press “Esc” to get it to fully launch (if I only press F8, it puts the program in my dock, and shows “Front Row” in the top right corner).

Any way to get it to fully launch on F8?

I have a rev 2 dual 1.8GHz G5 running Mac Os 10.4.2 and my coreservices folder is locked and i can’d modify it in any way. But with only one copy of the program in my applications folder, i was still able t launch the application.

Front Row DOES NOT work in 10.3

By: Alex Tan

Alex Tan — Sun, 30 Oct 2005 04:20:33 +0000

papertiger, yes I’ve had that same problem as well, it works on and off for me. DVD support will come with 10.4.3, Henrik I’ll have to do a bit more research but maybe it doesn’t work in 10.3, sorry…

This error appears when trying to start front row from shell:

It seems this Framework has been moved from PrivateFrameworks in 10.3 to Frameworks in 10.4.

I tried to make a soft-link to the framework in the Frameworks dir, and a new error appeared:

Cannot get it to work on my PowerMac G4 10.3.9

I was surprised this worked well on my G3 iBook – slow, admittedly, but Front Row is just about usable.
