It failed, every time I try to watch a streaming video, it tries to detect proxy settings, while If I use Real Alternative 1.29, it works fine. Please fix the bug.
Using IE 6.0+ it may also do the same as Firefox.

I am a newcomer to the Real world and am hoping that someone can give me some advice before I download Real Alternative 1.37
I have Windows XP with Windows Media Player 10.
What I would like answers to are the following questions.....
1. Will Windows Media Player 10 work with Real Alternative 1.37 by just downloading Real Media Codecs version 6.0.12872 ?
2. Do I need to download Real Media Direct Show Splitter version 1.0.0.9 as well ?
I am more than happy with Windows Media Player 10, I just wish that it would play ra and rm files without all this hassle !
Many thanks to anyone that can help.

Holy cow! Tinfoil hat alert. Someone didn't take their meds today.....
Anyhoo, I tried the Real Alternative, and it works great. Thank God I could finally get rid of RealPlayer.

Well, I haven't learned a d**n thing except I am not alone in stating "Real Player Sucks," and I boycott them and other sites that support them. They're as evil as George Bush, dude & dudettes!What I cannot for the life of me figure out, why have so many sites switched to them? At least with the election, we know it was stolen...

Real Alternative isn't fully functional realmedia player. It doesn't all all the parameters that realmedia supports. I can't play embedded content which have the following parameters in their address:
.rm?start=4:00
and
"local machine pathname" /statpos:00:16.4
It works but realplayer, but not real alternative.
.rm?start=4:00
and
"local machine pathname" /statpos:00:16.4
It works but realplayer, but not real alternative.

I think its great the there is a 'Real' alternative. Kudos to developers.
However, I believe that the REAL Real alternative is to boycott Real content. If we (and I mean us) refused to participate in broken mediums, like DRM, then they would go away.
Everytime you discover content that is only available in Real format, complain to the provider and refuse to participate.
peace.

Just an appendix... Jet Audio will play ALL Real files. It's freeware in its basic version, and isn't spyware or adware. I'm glad if I helped someone..

For real audio clips (ra. -s)use JetAudio 6.1. http://www. jetaudio. com/download/index.html. Works great!

Excellent. Only slight initial problem was at a web-site that uses a pop up window to play the videos. The first time I tried to stream an .rm video clip, it gave message in the green "rebuffering" strip which read "detecting proxy settings" which stalled the playing of the clip for about a minute or so. It finally played after that and subsquently there was no repetition of this kind of delay.

Great program. Nice to be able to ditch the invasive RealWhatever, like freakin' kudzu. It would've gotten five stars, except I can't use it to listen to Real samples on Amazon .com. I have to use the dread WMP 10 for that.

Frustrated and Desperate over Real Player. Dumped it all again and went looking on MSN Community XP site for others that might have prob's with Real Mess and found the dirction tothis program. I am a very basic pc user who enjoys litening to some radio on bbc that requires Real Player and one of the sites on my church site uses it. So disgusted with Real Mess that..got ERROR message when tried to send them my Remarks...lol...I have WMP 10 and need another program to take care of the rm or ram whichever...that it does not handle and now and then play a CD and or DVD in my system. Read all of aboe and need to know..Do I just download the 1 download of 1.30 or 1.29 and will that do the regular task for me. I read the remarks about running one With WMP. I am uneducated beyond E mails and a bit of surfing...HELP with plain simple english please.

Hi ,I have a problem with real alternative to add subtitles.its aking me to add directshow.where do I get this?

It works well, except for when playing streaming media. It seems that it doesn't buffer long enough, and because of that it has to buffer several times for each clip. There are bandwidth setting but it seems that no matter what I set to it sets it self back to T1, which is to high. Is there anyway to change how long it buffers before playing, like in Real Player?
