FrontRow 2.1.6 is available

Front row plays .mkv files now!

The above reasons are why I left Front Row and solely use Plex as my media centre. It plays everything I throw at it without hesitation. It does take awhile to set up but once its done you will never go back.

Still has the issue where the Photos mode plays back any camera-videos in the selected album as a blank screen. Ideally I'd like it to play them back as part of the Event/Album, but I'd settle for it just ignoring them like iPhoto does.

Podcasts that have downloaded in the background while Front Row is active still don't show up in the Podcasts area. You have to exit and reopen Front Row for them to appear.

Aperture support. At last.

Go to Settings and change "Photo source".

Doesn't seem to have fixed the incredibly annoying bug that separates out every season of a TV show into its own top level entry in the TV Shows list. If you have, say, a long-running show like "Doctor Who" you have to scroll through 30 instances of it, and it doesn't bother to put season numbers on them. Just the title of the show over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over until it is a total pain in the ass.
AppleTV seems to be able to deal with this, why not Front Row on the computer where the content resides??

It's exactly the same, as is expected from AAPL as they are now taking the Sarbanes-Oxley act to heart. They won't make it better by adding new features without charging for it.

Front Row still doesn't have compilations to the Artists list, which means that the list is OVER 9000 long. This makes Front Row (and AAPL TV) unusable for music.

Well big surprise this /still/ doesn't fix the problem where Frontrow reports "Your computer isn't connected to the Internet" when you try to watch movie trailers

WARNING: If you upgrade to iTunes 8, it won't play your purchased music without this Front Row update!
