Real Player for Pocket PC

startir · 08-26-03, 08:18 PM

Hello, helpful many!
400 MHZ just arrived! Now.....
I have alot of videos in REAL format I would like to put on memory card and watch on my new Axim. I see that REAL offers a pocket
PC version, has anyone tried it? Is there any other way to watch these without this player?

Thanks!

The Real Player works but it really only supports non HTTP RAM files. Not much out there like that but it sounds like you have yours encoded on your hard drive. So yes, you can copy a RAM file over to your Axim and play it as long as the RAM file does not stream to another location.

I found it to be garbage.

I thought about my post and thought maybe I was being unneedly harsh......

glad I am not alone in my estimate of the player

I keep hoping that Real will upgrade the player so that it will work with streaming sites. There's a lot of radio content that's only available in Real format.

As it is, it's a waste of space on your Axim.
