[Nithin]

Does anybody have this working? I installed it following their instructions, but I can't
seem to play files online.

aboutlugins show helix plugin.


is there any site i can try to see that it works?

Thanks,
Nithin.

Whose instructions are you going off of?

What version of Realplay are you using?

You should be using the new Helix based Realplayer and not reaplayer 8 or 9. The new one is actually very nice, I was blown away compared to the crapfest that was the old realplayer stuff was. Hell I didn't even have to give them a fake email address!

plugin docs for linux

Helix and Realplayer 10 releases at https://player.helixcommunity.org/2004/downloads/

(I don't think the free software version of the helix player includes the codecs nessicary to play realplay files, but these can be installed along with the reaplayer 10 or installed seperately.)

i do use alternative on windows. and it works great. on linux i don't know if it does.

is there some site i can try to see that it does?

the one site that i wanted to work needs activex. so i just need some sample links
to try out in firefox.

THANK YOU VERY much.

I searched for 'real' and looked through this and I hope this works.
