Realplayer Reels-in Web Video

Easy Rhino · Jun 26, 2007

A single click is all the effort a user needs to record and download video from tens-of-thousands of web sites with the new Realplayer. After install, a 'download-this' button briefly appears in the browser when playing video content. Video can then be downloaded in the background allowing users to continue surfing other web sites and it even supports multiple downloads. Realplayer can capture the most popular video format however it automatically recognizes and will not download video content protected by DRM. The program can be downloaded for free at http://www.realplayer.com

I just cant get into real player as a media player. I know it has some interesting features, but to me, its just a hassle.

Conti027 · Jun 26, 2007

i use to love realplayer but once i got Vista i didnt get it back

GJSNeptune · Jun 26, 2007

I uninstall it on any machine I sit at. Family, friends, etc.

russianboy · Jun 26, 2007

realplayer is pointless & filled w/ ads

nora.e · Jun 26, 2007

I don't like realplayer either, Surprizing, the one I like best for a media player is the add on program I got on the drivers disk that came with my LG dvd-rw

Easy Rhino · Jun 26, 2007

haha as i figured everyone hates realplayer. which is why i posted this news. this is their last big push and once this fails no more realplayer! (probably...and only to be replaced by another crappy media format/player)

Naw, someone will buy them and make it unbearably worse, if possible.

Last time I worked on a computer using AOHell, RealPlayer was being called "The preferred player for AOL".

wmp11 is nice

Winamp5 (only because Winamp3 starts to bug out after 5,000 songs

).

And the MMD3 skin horizontal.

"Back in the late 90s, everyone used Real Player. Then those cocks at Real Network got greedy, and tried to get their application to take over your entire PC, and people stopped using it. Same thing is happening with Quicktime now. You can't install Quicktime anymore unless you download bullshit iTunes. This section was supposed to be longer, but I couldn't even install iTunes so I could bitch about it. Not that I could have used it for what I wanted to anyway:"

The same way I feel about realplayer. The dancing sheep was cool in the 90's and all, but since then it has been shit. Besides, have people become so lazy as to foret get how to use a proper view source? Half my shit is "protected" that I use wget to copy from the sites main directory. Or just copy, paste and download.

lol @ steevo's linky

the vista one pwns.

wazzledoozle · Jun 27, 2007

I'd still take RealCrap video over some bullshit flash-encoded video that looks like its made out of moving, colored blocks. (I'm looking at you, Youtube!)

Wile E · Jun 27, 2007

I also hate Real Player. I use the Real Alternative codecs with Zoom Media Player instead. Same with Quicktime, although Quicktime isn't nearly as bad as it used to be.

russianboy · Jun 27, 2007

Is their a way to get those pesky .rm .ram etc. files to be played on WMP?

infrared · Jun 27, 2007

you have to convert them. There are a few .rm to .wmp converters about, but not many are free.

Grings · Jun 27, 2007

my windows media player plays rm, mov, and just about everything else, i think real alternative made it start playing them (or k-lite codec pack) either way, they do play on it without conversion

infrared · Jun 27, 2007

ooo, thanks. Didn't know that.

Darkrealms · Jun 27, 2007

I always hated the .rm files (the only thing they have going for them is how small they are). For some reason they corrupted much easier in file transfers. I've put Real Player and Quicktime on the same level for a while. Both are a pain and I don't like either format.
wazzledoozle try "Total Video Player" /Recorder. No improvement in quality but much easier to play and they can be saved.

Real alternative. The lite version is just the codecs, while the normal version comes with Media Player Classic.
