Techie help required - real player General Error message
Re: Techie help required - real player General Error message
Firewall perhaps? SP2 seems to cause all sorts of problems in that area.
Can't think of anything else, it works on mine OK.
As long as firefox is launching realplayer OK, should be fine.
Re: Techie help required - real player General Error message
I had problems today with RTE streams using Real Player on the Macintosh. It told me I needed to upgrade to the latest version of the player. I did, and it worked fine.
Re: Techie help required - real player General Error message
yep, have experienced a similar problem. anything that has streaming fails with a similarly useless message. i don't have the microsoft firewall running, but i am behind a corporate firewall. note that a lot of non-dialup home connections will have a built-in firewall also. that said, i don't know if a firewall is the problem. where possible, right-click on what you're trying to view, save target as..., and run locally. usually works for me.
Re: Techie help required - real player General Error message
I had problems after upgrading...
Guess it's a firewall issue, since I'm at school. The latest episode works fine, but none of the archived ones... Too bad, I wanted to hear the one with Kevin Burke.

Not so sure it was just a firewall issue - right now it works fine (same place, same stuff, same settings)...
