RealPlayer10 issues

Sat Sep 23 11:08:50 MDT 2006

Dear Paul,

Which version of Real Player are you using? According to
https://player.helixcommunity.org/downloads/ RealPlayer 10.0.5 Experimental
is the latest with the latest stable release being 10.0.0. With Helix, which
I have gotten to work on YDL just fine, the latest Experimental build is
1.0.5 and latest stable is 1.0.0. I believe Helix is just an open source
version of RealPlayer 10.
