For Boxee the file to change is at <code>/System/Library/CoreServices/Front Row.app/Contents/PlugIns/Boxee.frappliance/Contents/Resources/English.lproj/InfoPlist.strings</code> Just change the CFBundleName to whatever you want displayed. This will only change what it shown in Front Row menu; when selected it will still say 'Loading Boxee'. This will work on the other plugins too just change the path accordingly.

But I'm trying to make it non-tech friendly and so am trying to have the Front Row menu be something explanatory rather than "Plex" or "Boxee"...(such as "Media Center") etc. Is there a string in the info.plist or something that won't break it, that lets Front Row know the name to display on the menu that I can tweak? Thanks! Hi, I love the plugin and it works great.

Thanks large for making this available. I think you just accomplished for me Operation: Get Rid of Comcast. One minor thing I noticed: If you have any finder windows open when switching from FrontRow to Boxee, they will appear in front of the Boxee UI. The only way I was able to work around this was to add Front Row to the springboard. Friggin’ brilliant. Thanks large for making this available.

If the fix is the one mentioned here http://code.google.com/p/frboxee/issues/detail?id=4#c2 then that isn't it since I'm already using a different class name. If there is a different fix I would love to hear it. jchrist,
