Editorial Review: Product Description: The RF Remote for Front Row is a sleek and powerful RF remote control designed specifically for use with Apple's Front Row multimedia software. It provides more range, convenience and flexibility than infrared remotes.The RF Remote for Front Row provides a range of 60 feet or more (about twice the distance of infrared remotes).Unlike an infrared remote, this RF remote does not require line of sight to the receiver. This allows you to manage Front Row from more areas within the room or even from other areas of your house.Since the RF signal works through walls and furniture, you have more flexibility in locating the Macintosh that will be used to run Front Row. For example, you can place a Mac mini inside an entertainment center cabinet or within an AV closet and still easily control Front Row with the remote. Average Rating:
 Rating: - keyspan front row remote works greatWorks quite well and does what it says it is supposed to do. I do have an issue that might be just with my model computer. When I put the computer to sleep using the remote control, a while later it is asleep with the fans racing. I have tried it several times to make sure it is just happening from the remote and sad to say the results were correct. BTW I have a dual G5 2.0 running the lastest Leopard OS 10.5.3. Even though I can't put the computer to sleep using the product without issues the positive ... Read More Rating:  - DisappointedMine arrived DOA. In the instructions, you are directed to remove a plastic retainer in the battery compartment. Mine did not have this retainer. I purchased another battery figuring that was the issue, but no dice. Returned to Amazon. I'll be using a Wiimote via bluetooth with the remote buddy software to run my older G4 mac mini htpc. Rating: - Inexpensive, works wellI bought this for my Powerbook G4 to use with Remote Buddy software. As a teacher, I needed something to drive presentations including multimedia. I looked into getting more expensive USB remotes with multimedia features, but concluded that the combination of this simple device with special software (to increase its functions) was the most economical and flexible solution. This won't be the best choice for everyone. For one, it doesn't include a laser pointer, but it has good range that does ... Read More Rating:  - Simple but all you need for Front RowI found the description for this product a little lacking when I was looking for a remote for use with my Mac Mini and Front Row 2. I ended up buying it without feeling real good about whether it would meet my needs. I'm happy to say it did. Quite simply, let me tell you what this remote WILL do... 1. Toggle back and forth between the Mac OS and Front Row 2. Toggle the computer to sleep, then wake it up again. Very useful feature. 3. Raise and lower the volume of the Mac. 4. ... Read More Rating: - It works! (if you set things up right)So, after messing with this for a long while in Leopard - I figured it out. The 'menu' button replicates pressing command-escape, so that shortcut needs to bring up front row. By default, that shortcut isn't enabled.. So go enable it! That makes everything work, which is super. |
