I want to down load some real videos and audio but just can’t stand the thought of installing Realplayer. And did I read the website correctly that you have to pay after a 15 day free trial. Yea, that will happen. Did they do away with the free version? Last time I installed it, dam near took over every aspect of multimedia on my computer.

I vowed never to install it again, and so far I'm doing good. I haven't used it in almost 8 months now or so. I have a little real player patch on my arm, but at least it's not on my hard drive.

You can do it too. I know you can. You know you want the little keychain. I can't wait to get my 1 year chip.

I have now made 11 months by using the "Baby Steps" program. You can do it!
Just one baby step at a time.

Is there a doctor in the forum?

Yes, but not the right type. We need a shrink.

Real player still has a free version. I use it occasionally. Only it's called real one now. I only use it because I have some... educational videos... that are in real player format, and sometimes I like to review those... educational videos... But if it weren't for those special... educational videos... I'd never use it.

I'm a shrink but there is no cure for realplayer other than a full lobotomy of the software from the hard drive I'm afraid ..

And to think I just installed it this morning. I hate this progrma, but the only anime I have left is Fushigi Yuugi, and its all in rm format. Hell doesnt even play right, damn bad picture quality for the file size, why cant people just stay with mpegs?

Reply to wapaaga

Damn I have realplayer on my drive... now I have to clean it with shampoo to get it all away, crappy program... Isn't there some illegal software that can play realplayer files but isn't that bad?

With a hovering case crashing takes a whole new meaning... :smile: .

be nice if there was a converter out there from rm to av/mpg. Would make it myself, but im a mediocre programmer, and that is way above my skills level

There is a program called Tinra out there that can convert rm->Avi files.

And if you want to edit them use MetaEditor.
