Real Player question
Hi, Is it possible to fast forward files in Real Player? With every real file I've ever played, the previous clip and next clip options are always unavailable. I assume these are to move forwards and backwards through the file. Is that correct and is it normal that they are unavailable?

RE: Real Player question
Catherine, Yes one can fast forward and reverse through items in Real Player. The clip or stream must be running. Holding down, I think it's control+right arrow will fast forward and control+left arrow will rewind. If it's not the control key then its' the alt. The previous and next commands relate to clips or files not the currently running file. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Catherine Turner Sent: Wednesday, May 16, 2007 7:26 AM To: PC Audio Subject: Real Player question Hi, Is it possible to fast forward files in Real Player?

Re: Real Player Question
Jim, Highlight a file of a type you DON'T want played by Realplayer. Click on Files, and on Open With. Select the player you DO want to play files of that type, AND be sure to check the checkbox that says always use this program to open files of this type. Since, I gather, Realplayer has already made itself your default player, you'll have to do this, separately, for each files type currently played by Realplayer that you want played by some other player. But that will probably be easier than making some other player your default player, and, then, trying to get Realplayer to play all and only the file types that only it can play. Good luck.

RE: Real Player question
I am pasting below a message that someone kindly forwarded to me that should help. It isn't too bad once you get used to the quirks in Real Player. Hope it helps. Note that the message is based on RealOne which was the old name for Real Player, but the steps still seem to be useable for the most part. Here are some old instructions that do offer some good points about burning with Real Player. They were written for Real One Player and the menus are slightly different as you can see by reference to where the Burn/Transfer item is found. If you're using Jaws, the tip about changing the keys for selecting is a good one to remember. Good luck. Clifford Hi all, As promised, I have returned with instructions on burning CD's using RealOnePlayer. First, before you even open RealOnePlayer, there is a hot key conflict which must be resolved between JAWS and RealOnePlayer. This hot key conflict is in reference to two control plus keys; specifically, ctrl up arrow and ctrl down arrow. Those of you us who use RealOnePlayer will doubtless recognize these hot keys as the quick access keys for volume up and volume down. The difficulty which arises from leaving these hot keys as they are assigned is that they cause interference with the non contiguous file selection process. In RealOnePlayer, when you wish to burn a disk from files not part of a play list, the non contiguous file selection is the best rule to apply rather than contiguous selection. This is because it is possible to get feedback on whether or not a file has been selected for burning while using the non contiguous selection method. To resolve this hot key conflict between JAWS and RealOnePlayer, do this. 1. Open the default JFW key board manager. 2. Press R till you hear, RealOnePlayer. 3. Now, arrow down till you get to the hot keys mentioned above. 4. Now, to change tthe first hot key, press ctrl H. 5. At this point, press the new hot key you wish to have assigned to the function. 6. Now, tab to and press Ok. 7. You will be asked if you wish to confirm whether you wish to make this change. Yes is the default so press enter here. 8. Now, press alt S to save this change and then press alt F 4 to exit. At this point, you are ready to begin your burning session. Let's deal first with burning CD's from files you select which are not part of a RealOnePlayer play list. 1. Open RealOnePlayer in the normal manner. 2. Press alt T for Tools. 3. Press B for burn CD. 4. At this point, you will notice that, for some reason, JAWS will tend to lose focus from this window. Because of this, you will find that it is necessary to use alt tab to get back to the main RealOnePlayer window and then alt tab to get back to the media window. Do this. 5. Now, press enter on the media window in to which you just reentered. 6. Now, you will find yourself in a file window in to which you can select files. Just tab to add files and press enter. 7. At this point, you will be placed in the my Library window which will show you all the files stored in the my Library collection. Assuming however, that you do not want to select files from this point, tab to and press enter on browse. 8. Having done this, you can now browse in the normal manner to the folder in to which you have stored the files you wish to be burned. 9. Here is where you will find the non contiguous file selection rule to be the best choice for file selection. Select all files you wish burned. 10. Now, press enter on Open. 11. Now, you will find yourself in the CD burning window. This would be a good time to put the blank disk in. 12. Wait about 30 seconds or so while RealOnePlayer detects the blank disk and what kind it is. Then start tabbing threw the window. 13. You will notice that the first thing you will come to is the disk type window. This is the point at which you determine the type of CD you wish to burn. The audio choice will cause all files you have selected to burn on to the disk in such a manner that they will play in any regular CD player. The Mp3 choice will cause all files to be converted to MP3's, and so forth. Make the choice you wish by arrowing to it. 14. Now, if you tab over, you will get to the options page. This is the page at which you can control how a Cd is burned. You can have RealOnePlayer insert a blank space of two seconds between tracks, cross fade between tracks or leave no blank space at all. Make the choice you want using the arrow keys. 15. Just tab threw the other controls making your selections as you wish and then tab to and press Ok. 16. If you use a rewritable CD, erase CD will be within the burn window. Otherwise, you may want to tab over to driver options. Press enter on it. 17. Now, From this point you can make your driver use what is called track at once (known as Tao) burning or disk at Once (Dao burning) Disk at Once, which is the default in RealOnePlayer burns the disk in a

Hi all, I just purchased my first downloadable album from Real Audio. The files are in .rax format. Can I burn these files to cd using Roxeo? Or do I have to use Real Audio? If I can only use Real, what steps do I need to take in order to burn the files to cd? I think I have to add songs to my library and maybe some other things, but I don't know the Real Audio player at all, I just hope it works well enough with Jaws to make this happen.

Increased security is the primary concern of this windows version. Whether you've changed security settings yourself or not, I would encourage you to open those settings in IE and see if they're set according to your intentions. For instance, something in settings was blocking me from playing Winamp files, with my screen displaying exactly what you described seeing in your own case. A message popped up telling me that in effect, Windows was protecting me for myself. Of course, it didn't say it in those words but the file was on my own website. Conversely, Windows played the same file using Windows Media, without so much as a gentle warning. I was also prevented from opening email attachments after installing the program until I went in and changed that feature. So if you want to deal with as few security issues as possible without the need to adjust settings, Windows Media would probably be your best bet. It is my experience that windows green lights it over Real, Winamp, or anything else. I know that a lot of people in our group are not happy with Real, but I really don't believe it's behind your problem here.

A message popped up telling me that in effect, Windows was protecting me for myself. Of course, it didn't say it in those words but the file was on my own website. Conversely, Windows played the same file using Windows Media, without so much as a gentle warning. I was also prevented from opening email attachments after installing the program until I went in and changed that feature. So if you want to deal with as few security issues as possible without the need to adjust settings, Windows Media would probably be your best bet. It is my experience that windows green lights it over Real, Winamp, or anything else. I know that a lot of people in our group are not happy with Real, but I really don't believe it's behind your problem here.

Re: real player question
But will WMMP play real media files? I believe this is what I need, no choices there. I'll try my ham radio computer this weekend when the time comes too with windows 98, it will take a lot of upgrading to make it even think about it but that might not be a bad idea. I don't think windows media player will work with realone subscriptions with the log in and stuff, some one correct me if I'm wrong, but I'd seriously doubt with what I want to do, switching players is an option. - Original Message - From: Larry Naessens [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: PC audio discussion list.

It won't work on my ham radio computer either with windows 98, same error, I'll play around a little more with it but if I can't get anywhere, and the way today's going I won't, I'll just drop the hole thing.

real player question
Hi all, I'm having a problem with real player, I subscribed to a service on www.nascar.com, and when I was on vacation, it worked perfect, on an aol dial up connection, now I'm at home on my Comcast cable connection and every time I try to load that content, it comes up and says warning security and there's a close button there and the URL, that's it. I believe this might be a firewall issue causing this, but has anyone seen this? Any ideas on what might fix it? I'm sure it would happen with other things as well but I don't use real player much, just when I absolutely have to. If anyone's seen this, or can offer suggestions I'd appreciate it, I'd like to get it working if I can't I'll have to cancel it, it's costing me money.
