FrontRow: "An error has occurred. Press Play/Pause to quit FrontRow"
I got this rather unhelpful error from FrontRow last night, trying to show off my library of flower pictures to a friend visiting for dinner.

The solution for me was to delete some blank photos as outlined in the thread "Front Row has an error finding iPhoto library" on the Apple Support forums. Note that the first response (suggesting a rebuild of the thumbnail cache) on that thread should actually suggest holding down Command+Option when opening iPhoto, not FrontRow. Just to clarify, the problem didn't go away when I rebuilt the thumbnail cache, but did go away when I deleted the blank photos.

Now I can get back to showing my friend a thousand-odd photos of flowers.
