Front Row 1.2.2 (#2): Problems playing shared audio/video

CNET staff

Several readers have reported a problem where Front Row 1.2.2 is unable to playback shared video and audio, where Front Row 1.2.1 was able to playback these files. For most users, playback for these files still works normally within iTunes.

MacFixIt reader Rocco writes:

"I just bought a Intel Mac mini and I updated to Front Row 1.2.2. Once I did that Front Row will not play my shared videos that I purchased. "

For most users experiencing this problem, Front Row 1.2.2 access the shared video and loads appropriate menus, but then hangs on the "Loading Video" phase and provides an error message indicating that the shared video can not be played.
