RealPlayer Beta Update Released

By Matt Spragins, Director of Product, RealPlayer

Good news all! We’ve just posted a new RealPlayer Beta build to www.realplayer.com that resolves several bugs that have been reported to us over the past month. To those of you who are active participants on this blog, we thank you for your feedback and keep it coming. This is the first of several beta updates that we plan to do over the coming months.

Note – if you have already downloaded the RealPlayer beta, you will need to download the new build for these fixes to take affect.

One piece of feedback I’d like to address at this time relates to how the RealPlayer browser plug-in interacts with Flex applications and Shockwave files. This specific issue was also recently posted here on John Dowdell's Macromedia blog.  

Here are the facts as we know them today regarding this issue:

1. Real does not replace or modify anyone’s flash/swf files.  The RealPlayer browser plug-ins do run their own swf’s beforehand in certain cases to properly determine where videos are placed on a web page.

2, There have been some reported compatibility issues with our implementation (in particular with flex applications) - most of which were just addressed with this recent software release. 

3. Because RealPlayer is still Beta software, we will continue to monitor user feedback and provide updated builds in the coming weeks.  Please report any issues to the RealPlayer feedback form. 

It is our mission to ensure RealPlayer is a great software application that provides a great user experience and allows people to watch video whenever, wherever they choose.

I was hoping for just 1 bug fix in this release and it is not included.

RealPlayer still commands the system Wave volume control.

This is so egregious that it is included on the wikipedia page for this product.

dmp4.dll keeps crashing when playing MPEG-4 content. Not good.

You guys at Real should be ashamed for doing this, regardless of whether there were bugs ornot. As a developer this is extremely troublesome, and as a user its also offensive in that its presumptuous. You should not being fooling with the Flash plugin whatsoever; if you want to mess around with Real content thats fine but dont spread your software issues over to other products.

I downloaded the patches exploited security hole today. Tell me after installing this patch I am no longer able to download videos.
When you go to a video site a little Icon use to pop up and ask if you want to download this video. This No longer happens. Did You Guys eliminate this function?-Paul

[Paul]

patches exploited security hole: Statement I Made Yesterday about not being able to download videos after installing the securty patch was an error on my end. I forget I disabled the manage add on on in my ie7 browers. By enabling realplayer ad on I am now able to download videos. My Mistake =Paul

Why is realplayer overiding basic and essential swf 'no loop' and 'play onClick' actionscripts?
I had a page holding 13 swfs as mp3 players ready to play onClick, next thing I knew I went to the page and got 13 songs start on me!!!
Is there no way to control this?!?

Update my real player

I'm also having the problem where my computer freezes while using Rhapsody. First I thought it was just while downloading large numbers of songs, but sooner or later my computer -- not just Rhapsody, but everything -- will freeze if I am running this latest "upgrade". What really bothers me is that we're forced to take the upgrade, and then it doesn't work. Why can't we just choose to keep our nice, stable version that we're happy with? I have many songs downloaded to my hard drive in Rhapsody's format, so it will be very sad if I am forced to switch to a different service. I loved the original Rhapsody, and I'm equally happy -- not more but equally -- with the later versions WHEN THEY WORK! But this is the second time that a new version has made me feel like I'm just wasting my money. The previous version of Rhapsody worked badly with my old laptop, but better with a new one. The new version freezes on my now not quite as new one.

Real player 11 doesn't work respect to downloading youtube videos, but Real player 11 beta did work fine. Real player 11 is much worse than real player 11. I would like to install real player 11 beta instead of real player 11, but I can't.

[Andrew Dickinson]

I downloaded realplayergold11 and clicked "Install". I was surprised to see that it would only work while online. No other video player I have tried requires being online during installation.
And, because I am on dialup, it is taking ages. I gave up at 25%.

This is bullshit, guys ! Give me a full version to install. I am quite happy to go to an internet cafe to download a large file, but I expect it to load as a standalone product after that.
