Just upgraded my Mac mini I use as a media center to find out that the new Front Row does not stream to remote AirTunes speakers as it did in Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger. Front Row sound goes only to audio out, which is connected to the TV. One more thing: the music stops when leaving the Music menu in Front Row. Mac OS X 10.5.1 update does not fix these problems. Apple Support Discussions thread is here.

Watch your home TV anywhere
Saturday, November 10th, 2007Thanks to Sling Media, I can watch all cable and Pay-TV stations in Qatar, streamed directly from my home over the Internet. I can even remote control the Set-Top Box.
Sling Box (classic) connections: analog antenna (tuner) – cable, Composite input – UPC STB. The setup will be complete with a DVD HDD recorder (connected to S-Video input and also to the STB).
The new Sling Box Pro is on the way from amazon.co.uk.
