Last week Verizon offered up a Media Manager for OS X that will stream iTunes content to a FiOS DVR.
While the software has been around for Windows for some time, this is Verizon's first offering for Mac users.
According to the Media Manger page on Verizon's website, the application allows you to, "broadcast your iPhoto and iTunes media to your TV directly through your FiOS TV DVR."
The software allows you to stream playlists, share albums and slideshows, and view photo events directly on your TV. The requirements are pretty minimal, requiring you to have a FiOS set-top box, Mac OS X 10.4 or higher, iTunes 7 or higher, iPhoto 6 or higher, and QuickTime 7 or higher.
You can download the application for your Mac and view a video of it in action on the Verizon website.

I started my verizon account a couple of weeks ago. I am trying to use their Media Manager to view my iphotos and itunes stuff on the TV. I can't do it. I paid for their premium support package and they say that I am doing nothing wrong. They told me to contact the TV manufacturer to find out what is wrong. I am pretty sure that that won't work.
I would appreciate any ideas on how to proceed or should I just give up.
I sensed that the Verizon support team didn't know anything about an iMac.
