Note that EyeTV 3 actually has Front Row integration built in-- it's disabled by default and can be turned on using a hidden preference. Works much better than PyeTV in my experience.

Thanks!!!
Quote from elegato forum:

I'll be damned! I learned a very interesting trick today. If you execute this command in the Terminal:

defaults write com.elgato.eyetv "apple remote menu button behavior" -int 1

EyeTV's prefs will be modified and there will be a 'FrontRow' item added to the 'More' menu. It also switches the behavior of the 'Menu' button on the Apple remote so that a single press brings up EyeTV and a long press brings up FrontRow.
