I'm new to Real, and recently went through the exercise of figuring out
how to embed the player in a web page. I had the same problem - audio, but
no video. Eventually I figured out that when you embed the player ActiveX,
you
get just one piece - by default the controls. To see the video you need to
separatly embed a second instance of the ActiveX control and tell it to
be an "ImageWindow" via parameters. I don't know how all this would translate
to Delphi, but I'll bet you need two instances of the ActiveX object
there too. Take a look at the "Realsystem G2 Production Guide" - Chapter 8.
I'll bet you can translate the examples there to Delphi.
