Site Administrator Myr Posted November 13, 2004 Site Administrator Share Posted November 13, 2004 You know, I've never been a big fan of Microsoft dominating every aspect of computing life, but at Media Player works! I've never had a problem with Media player working. Realplayer, on the other hand, truly sucks. The stupid thing won't download. Then it won't install becuase it's "missing uninstall components". I was really desparate to play a streaming realplayer file at the time this trouble all started, and I decided to spend $20 on the Realplayer Plus. Low and behold, same shit, different package. Since I can't get my money back from those stupid motherf'ckers, I'm going to use my soapbox to badmouth their shitty little company. I hope Microsoft stamps their stupid asses like the trashing they gave Netscape when AOHell took it over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ibsu Posted November 14, 2004 Share Posted November 14, 2004 Augh - I love my Rhapsody! (It's a Real product.) You know, if you own Realplayer Plus, you should get free tech support on it. They'll have you go into the registry and remove the crud that's breaking it. This is their help page, and they have their customer service number as a link off of that page. Since you've bought RealPlayer Plus, you get that for free. I wasn't a fan of theirs for years, but their new player usually works pretty well, and they don't do the obnoxious stuff they used to.

Crackerwriter Posted November 14, 2004 Share Posted November 14, 2004 Thanks Myr - I knew there was something I'd forgotten, and that was to go into Add/Remove programmes and get the hell rid of it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ibsu Posted November 15, 2004 Share Posted November 15, 2004 I dont use it but then again my winamp does everything. WINAMP IS GOD OF MEDIA PLAYERS. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I've only seen heartache and pain from any winamp player since the 2 series. 3 Was a travesty and 5 still crashes too much for my taste. *shrug* And Video almost never works on winamp for me. I'm a fan of ZINF for audio, myself. (Open source for the win!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Administrator Myr Posted November 15, 2004 Author Site Administrator Share Posted November 15, 2004 Must be why I'm still using 2.8 for Winamp. Want a copy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ethan thorn Posted November 16, 2004 Share Posted November 16, 2004 Winamp 5.03c is a good build and has never crashed on me and all video plays in my winamp with no prob. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ibsu Posted November 16, 2004 Share Posted November 16, 2004 Winamp 5.03c is a good build and has never crashed on me and all video plays in my winamp with no prob. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> The problem I have is that it was insisting on picking up WMV and then it would only play the audio and not the video. *shrug* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
