Subject: Problem with RealPlayer 7 metafile 'end' command?

Can anyone help me? It seems that the latest RealPlayer doesn't handle =
"end=" commands in a RAM file like it should. I have a site that =
streams audio clips and I dynamically generate RAM files to do this. I =
include a "start" and an "end" time in the RAM file to limit a user to =
approximately 45 seconds of audio. This has worked very well for =
everyone until RealPlayer 7 arrived.=20

The following is an example of a RAM file generated by my system:

pnm://real.stealing-fire.com/Audio/JethroTull/JTullDotCom/Spiral.ra?title="S 
piral"&author"J-Tull Dot Com"&copyright="1999"&start="00:00:00"&end="00:00:45"

(The audio clip on my server is actually 3 minutes 53 seconds. And =
contains the entire audio track for this song.)

When a RealPlayer 7 executes this it will start at the beginning of the =
audio clip, play approx. 43 seconds, stop playing, start flashing =
"buffering" for the next 3 minutes 10 seconds.

So, it appears that the player is stalled but running to the actual end =
of the audio clip!? Please help me with this. Is this a bug?
