I got Front Row installed and working on my iBook, and it looks great on my TV through the VGA->S-video adaptor I just got. I can do music and photo stuff just fine, along with movie trailers, but when I go Movies > TV Shows it tells me that I don't have any TV shows, and that I need to buy some from iTunes. But when I go into iTunes and click 'TV shows,' I see a good list of both purchased and downloaded TV Shows. Any ideas why it's not working?

Hmmm... I had this problem in iTunes 6, because the TV shows weren't marked as such in iTunes (I ended up using Lostify to solve the problem).

Are you using iTunes 7?

I am using iTunes 7.0.1 and all of the TV shows show up when I click the 'TV Shows' under iTunes.

A more important question: are you using the latest version of Front Row (1.3, I think)?

Any ramblings are entirely my own, and do not represent those of my employers, coworkers, friends, or species

Tricky...
I used Pacifist to update Front Row, and stuff seems to work now.
Thanks!
