Subject: [WC] Real 7 legacy .ram file problem

If you're not using SMIL yet, and especially if you're using the more
advanced .ram-file syntax elements, you should know that Real Player 7 has a
problem with commas in legacy .ram files, as in:

rtsp://stream.mediabay.com/media/wrw_11_19_99.rm?title=Yours Truly, Johnny
Dollar&author=MediaBay

Works fine in every other Real Player, but gives a file not found in RP 7.
Take out the comma from the title field and it works fine.

This bug bit us this morning, and given that there are folks on this list
who have lots and lots of files out there on the web, I thought you might
need to know about it.

(In our case, the solution is easy, since we generate our .ram's on-the-fly
anyway).

Joey
