Can't get my iPAQ to play RealVideo (off line)

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.pocketpc (More info?)

The answer to question 1 is Yes, it only plays some files...

If you have access to the data (for example a TV tuner card) you can use
Windows Media Encoder to capture a stream and save as a WMV file...

One of the questions was about capturing audio/video, so I'm just suggesting
that Windows Media Encoder could be used.

Windows Media Encoder is a free download from
www.microsoft.com/windowsmedia. With it you can capture audio (wma) or video
(wmv) and store in a file or stream directly to a network. Windows Media
player on your Pocket PC can play wmv files.
