Plug-in shows up but does not function

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Installed PYE plug-in per instructions on project home page.
2.
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
When I enter front row, I see the PYE plugin. When I click on it, it takes
a good 30-40 seconds, and then comes to the next menu and freezes. I can
hear audio as it launches EyeTV, but I can do nothing else except exit out
of front row.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
I am using EyeTV 3.0.1, OS X 10.5.3, and I have tried version 1.1 and 1.0
of the plugin with the same result.

Please provide any additional information below.

I haven't upgraded to 10.5.3 yet.  Did you ever try under 10.5.2?

I have the same problem with EyeTV 3.0.3 and the only "solution" i found to fix 
it was to launch EyeTV at Startup 
without opening the Screenwindow.

This might be a preferences-related issue.

In EyeTV's preferences menu, I have unchecked "Always open live tv window at 
startup"
and "Always open TV in a new window" under the "General" tab, and "Fullscreen" 
tab,
unchecked "Start EyeTV in fullscreen".

If EyeTV is not running, then PyeTV will have to launch it to get the 
recordings list
(this is just the way applescript works).  If you've told EyeTV to open a live 
tv
window on startup, then this would explain why you hear the audio when it's 
starting,
and it might possibly explain why the other features aren't working either.

I think the best solution is to make sure that EyeTV is started before front 
row,
without a live tv window launched.  Personally, EyeTV is a login item for me so 
it's
started automatically before Front Row can be launched.  Makes sense, b/c EyeTV 
may
have to record at any time.

PyeTV requires that EyeTV be running before Front Row is launched.

This is because starting EyeTV from within PyeTV/Front Row does something weird 
to the
remote and I have no control over that---it's not something I can fix.
