Real Player

Hello, at one time I had real radio installed which gave me a lot of problems, so I deleted it and install WM7,

It appears that some music I wish to d/l(free btw) requires real player. Looking at the d/ls on major geeks I see a real player alternative. Is this a good d/l and if anyone uses could you give me your opinion.

Thanks

 

Its great, Media Player Classic is the only player you should ever need. There's also Quicktime Alternative, and ffdshow which will play almost anything without the standalone codecs (DivX, XviD, etc).

 

Thanks

 

Hello, sorry I haven't gotten back. Could you tell me where I can d/l Media Classic. Couldn't find it on Major Geeks. I am running Win98.

Thanks

I am running win98 and it appears that the d/l is for win2000, would it be safe to use that d/l,

Thanks!!

Its me again, found the forum and looked under players, could not find Media Classic listed there.

Thanks

 

Hello Halo, one more question do I need to install the real players as shown in the picture or do I just check meadia player and the recommended settings.

Thanks, good to hear from you again!!

 

Hey Halo, I had mplayer2.exe d/l. I was able to d/l media classic a few moments ago.
I am trying to d/l some free gospel music to my cp I am going put the link to this site here;http://members.tripod.com/~rosemck1/southern-gospel.html

Some of the songs I am able to load to wm7, however there are some other songs I try to down load that will open with ram file and while it runs it does not play any sound but does load the name to my docs.

When I click on that site in my docs it will not play and I get this msg:
mmsytem296 file cannot be played on the specified mci devise.

I wonder if you could check that site and see if you can get it to work.
The reason I put media classic on was the notes that said it would play ram files and had real player there also.

Sorry to be a problem, thanks for your help!!!

 

Good morning Halo, no I did not load real alternative, will do so today and will let you know

Thanks!!!

 

Hello, I d/l real alternative, so not to sure how it works. I went to the same site i gave you earlier and the is a "John Starns" name that has a number of songs. These were the ones I could not get to work before, what it does now just sends the song name to my docs where most of my songs are stored. It doen.t play any music and when I got to the song on my docs I get this msg: Cannot play the file format not supported and WM class not registered. When I click on the details this appears:
