| Good news indeed. The omission of this feature was stupid from the beginning, but better late than never. I bet some of this was put in place with the 1.1 update. They just needed an iTunes update to add in the final components. |

| Someone in another topic posted that the mysterious blurry bar is treated. Is this true? I want to know before I update. |

Yes, before this update it used to be blurry as default. It is now fixed thanks to this iTunes update. |

Any able to confirm that the "Cannot share this video, the server may be having trouble playing it" issue was fixed
In 7.2 lots of people were finding that videos would play fine on their server but when accessing from FR on a client it would not stream. I believe the work around was to drop itunes back to 7.1.1 on the server. _________________ Intel 2.4Ghz/4G Ram/1TB HDD/Server MacMini

It might have taken them two updates, but they finally fixed the anti-aliasing issues with Cover Flow. I'm glad it wasn't my eyes going bad.  |

I didn't notice the CoverFlow fix this morning. It's good to see that little bug fixed. Now they need to move onto the audio popping issue in 10.4.10. Oh yeah, I got it.  |

Apple needs to get on that baby ASAP. I think there a lot of people that wouldn't mind giving Steve Jobs and earful about it. I wonder what his iPhone number is?

I did a little test. I don't know that history of that problem, but I can share and stream videos fine between computers using Front Row. Both computers are running iTunes 7.3. |

I'm glad they added the feature, but I keep getting the message "Your Apple TV is not authorized to play this content". The thumbnail previews, roll names and slideshow names from the other computer even show up on the main Photos menu.  _________________ 1.66GHz, 1.83GHz and 2.0GHz Mac minis
