Region X Universal Binary

Thanks to ben11, a member of the rpc1 forums, new RPC-1 firmware updates are available for Matshita drives. This is great, but something was missing: an universal binary version of Region X. An intel only version is available, but it's english only and well, an universal binary version is just better. Unfortunately, xvi — the author of Region X — retired several years ago. Fortunately, he made Region X sources publicly available. So I recompiled it as an universal binary and I updated the version number to 1.1.3. Feedback is welcome.

Front Row Trailers

English version below

Front Row Trailers est le nouveau nom de Bandes-annonces Front Row depuis la version 2.1.

Front Row Trailers n'est plus disponible. Veuillez vous référer aux instructions pour restaurer les bandes-annonces originale d'Apple.

Foire Aux Questions

Q: Comment faire pour désinstaller Front Row Trailers ?
R: Il n'y a pas besoin de désinstaller Front Row Trailers, il suffit de sélectionner la source Apple (US) et les bandes-annonces d'origine seront de retour.

Q: Est-ce que Front Row Trailers est compatible avec Leopard (Mac OS X 10.5) ?
R: Oui

Q: Sur Leopard, je dois entrer mon mot de passe à chaque fois que je change de source, que puis-je faire pour éviter cela ?
R: Il suffit de taper la commande suivante dans le Terminal (une fois la commande entrée, il faut taper son mon de passe):
sudo chmod o+w /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/BackRow.framework/Versions/A/Resources/Trailers.plist

Q: Est-il possible de désactiver les bandes-annonces ?
R: Depuis la version 2.1.1, Front Row Trailers le permet en choisissant la source spéciale Deny.
Sur Leopard, il est aussi possible de désactiver les menus iTunes Top Movies, iTunes Top Songs et iTunes Top Music Videos en entrant la commande suivante dans le Terminal:
defaults write com.apple.frontrow EnableITMS -bool NO
Attention: cette commande doit être entrée avant de choisir la source Deny dans Front Row Trailers.

Q: Sur Leopard, certaines bandes-annonces ne se lisent pas aussi bien que sur Tiger ou ne fonctionnent même pas du tout. Prévoyez-vous de distribuer une mise à jour ?
R: Front Row pour Leopard utilise une architecture très différente de celle de Front Row pour Tiger. Tandis que Front Row pour Tiger utilise QuickTime pour lire les bandes-annonces, Front Row pour Leopard semble utiliser son propre méchanisme passant outre QuickTime. Alors que les bandes-annonces se lisent bien dans QuickTime player, celles-ci peuvent ne pas fonctionner dans Front Row. C'est notamment le cas avec les bandes-annonces allemandes utilisant le codec Sorenson 3. Malheureusement, il n'y a rien que je puisse faire. Néanmoins, une future mise à jour de Front Row ou de QuickTime pourrait résoudre ces problèmes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How do I uninstall Front Row Trailers ?
A: There is no need to uninstall Front Row Trailers, just select the Apple (US) source and you will get the original trailers from Apple.

Q: Is Front Row Trailers compatible with Leopard (Mac OS X 10.5) ?
A: Yes

Q: In Leopard, I am prompted for my password every time I change the source, is there anything I can do about that ?
A: Just type the following command in the Terminal (you will have to type your password):
sudo chmod o+w /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/BackRow.framework/Versions/A/Resources/Trailers.plist

Q: Is it possible to disable the theatrical trailers ?
A: Since version 2.1.1, Front Row Trailers is able to deny trailers access by choosing the special Deny source.
On Leopard, it is also possible to disable the iTunes Top Movies, iTunes Top Songs and iTunes Top Music Videos menus by typing the following command in the Terminal:
defaults write com.apple.frontrow EnableITMS -bool NO
Warning: this command must be typed before choosing the Deny source.

Q: In Leopard, some trailers won't play as smoothly as in Tiger or won't even play at all. Are you planing to release an update ?
A: Front Row for Leopard uses a very different architecture than Front Row for Tiger. Whereas Front Row for Tiger uses QuickTime for playing the trailers, Front Row for Leopard seems to uses its own mechanism ignoring QuickTime. While the trailers play fine in QuickTime Player, they may not play in Front Row. This is notably the case with german trailers using the Sorenson Video 3 codec. Unfortunately, I can not do anything about that. Nevertheless, a future update of Front Row or QuickTime may fix these issues.
