Front Row Hangs

[davids8477]

Hello:

Just trying out your DVDpedia and the Front Row Plugin.

When I select a movie from Front Row to play - from my library - Front Row shows "Loading DVD" for a second then goes blank screen - then nothing

Any Ideas?

Are there any errors in your console log? You can view the console log with the program of the same name in your utilities folder, new messages are towards the bottom.

Thanks for your reply.

I cleared the console log and tried again - got the "Loading DVD" message for a second then a blank screen. Pressed ESC to get back to Front Row menu.
Tried the same movie using straight Front Row and it plays no problem.

Here's the console log

Thank you for the information from the console log. Somebody else also had issues with a Drobo, so it might be a Drobo thing. Mathieu might know more.
