FAQ: Real Player

I installed RealPlayer, and now my streaming player won't play my music!

RealPlayer is a music playing software made by RealNetworks. When installing it, by default, is set to take away the right for Winamp or any other streaming audio player to play the music you usually play with Winamp.

During the installation, you must make sure that you tell RealPlayer that you don't want it do this. We are working on a good fix for this. Try re-installing your streaming audio player.

RealPlayer stops at the end of every song!

This is a problem with versions less than 7. Upgrade your RealPlayer or better yet install a Streaming Radio Player.

RealPlayer stops playing after a while

RealPlayer is great to use to get started, but it has been optimised for it's own proprietary Real audio streams. It does not recover from network buffering as well as a streaming MP3 audio player .
