If you happen to have extra big display connected to your Mac and you'd like to watch all movie trailers inside your Front Row in HD (High Definition) format, you should try this command line:
defaults write com.apple.frontrow TrailerBypass http://www.apple.com/trailers/home/xml/current_720p.xml && killall "Front Row"
But you need to make sure that you've extra fast broadband internet access, or you would end up waiting for several minutes to stream-play the HD movie trailer. And you need to pay attention that with low resolution display, you won't find any difference in the trailers' quality, so it's better to keep the default settings.
How to download movie trailers faster?
defaults write com.apple.frontrow TrailerBypass http://www.apple.com/trailers/home/xml/current_480p.xml && killall "Front Row"
Use above command line and you can get your front row to download trailers in lower resolution which is suitable for low-res display. Have fun!

How and where do I place the command line to play HD trailers in Front row? Thanks for jour answer. Greetings Henk
You enter the command in Terminal, (just spotlight for it) I am no guru for the terminal, but it looks like this is actually two commands in one line, split by the &&, so if you get errors or anything try entering "defaults write com.apple.frontrow TrailerBypass http://www.apple.com/trailers/home/xml/current_480p.xml" (without quotes) press enter, and then type killall "Front Row"
Hi, A lot of people have problems with trailers stalling in Front Row as they playback on new macs, running 0S10.5.5. Apple support tell me it is because they are streaming HD trailers and a better bandwidth is required, and that there is no option in Front Row to opt for SD only. Is this terminal script suitable to default to SD? and how do I revert back if it doesn't work?
Open Terminal en fill in the next command: defaults write com.apple.frontrow EnableHDMovieTrailers TRUE killall FrontRow Start Frontrow again, click “Movies >> Theatrical Trailers” and than, the new option: “HD Trailers”. Enjoy! =D -Michel Merx. Tweak undo command: defaults write com.apple.frontrow EnableHDMovieTrailers FALSE
