Front Row should exit in order for the video to play. Of course, the video 
should load 
too. If there is a crash report please attach it.

Do you ever use a secondary display for Understudy?

I use a Samsung hdtv as my secondary (DVI to HDMI adapter from a Macbook Pro).

I don't get a crash report, it simply stays black for a few seconds after I 
select a
movie, and then the desktop fades back in as though you were exiting Front Row 
under
normal circumstances.

The last build worked just fine for me, but I updated as I was hoping to watch
Netflix in full screen (no bars at the top and bottom).

Thanks for replying so quickly!

Cheers

And you're sure that Netflix isn't coming up on the primary display?

yup. both displays go black for a few seconds, nothing appears, and then both
displays fade from black back into the desktop (as if you had closed front row).

You should be able to downgrade to a previous version for the short term. I 
don't have 
a second display handy, but I'll see what I can work out.

Thanks for reporting

What version of Mac OS X are you using?

It sounds like this is tha same as issue 138 (the video players not working 
under Leopard). Let me know 
if that doesn't seem right, otherwise I'll merge the two issues.
