More info on RealPlayer...
I do get sound out of it if and only if I try: changing the mod to something other
than OSS; hit play
(error popup about device busy); change the mode back to OSS (with custom sampling
rates disabled);
hitting play. Subsequent plays without changing from OSS result in failures. With
those settings, the
trademark realplayer chime sounds ok, but I tried to play a south park episode (from
www.spdownloads.com)
using the same steps and the sound is really distored. Is it a bug with Real?
