leopard and frontrow
When I play a movie in frontrow on my macbook with the screen mirrored on a plsma via dvi-vga there is no picture on either screen. This used to work, why doesnt it work now?

Thanks

Yeah mine is doing exactly the same. Works fine when the Mini-DVI isn't connected, but as soon as it's connected I'm getting sound and no picture.

What output method are you using? I'm using the old video-component type.

What type of plug to you have that plugs into your Macbook and then to your screen... I just re-read your original post and saw you said dvi-vga, this is different to mine so hopefully this is a bug that will be fixed in the update.

What about closing the MBP screen (with your second monitor connected), pressing the remote, enjoy Frontrow (oh, and open the MBP screen for heat reasons).

Yeah, that works. Thanks for the tip! Would be nice to see it working properly mirrored though.
