PSA: Play RealMedia files WITHOUT RealPlayer

[amnesiac]

Repost, yes. But I see gripes about sites offering RealMedia content EVERY DAY so I figure I'll post this again.

Download this:
UnRealOne

It's a hacked WMP6.4 that plays RealMedia files.

Tested on a half dozen PCs running XP. Should work on most Microsoft OS's as well.
If you can't get it to work, it's not because the program is faulty, it's because you're too much of a goddamn dumbass to follow simple instructions. Want a user manual for your shoelaces?

More useful stuff in sig.

Isn't there one of these that will play QT too?

good repost. i lost this after i reformatted

Does it work without having Real Player installed? I was googling for a player like that. The only thing I found was Media Player Classic. But to play rm files, it required Real Player.

edit: Just downloaded it. I guess it's MPC just with the Real codecs.

I agree, it doesn't work for some reason.

Hm, I clicked on the link and it asked if I wanted to download a .rm
?

Does that include the Real codecs?

 

To bad is does not work on all rm streams. I just use Real One enterprise desktop. No message center, no cd buring, no calling home to momma.

This doesn't work without Realplayer installed on the system b/c WMP Classic doesn't include the codecs. You can find a version WITH the codecs to play both REAL and Quicktime formats at the bottom of the links page here:
