This absolutely will not play. It simply will not work. All it will say is "Connection to server could not be established. You may be experiencing network problems. ISO file from ubuntu. Ubuntu shouldnt a damn about the attribute bits that windows has set on the file to prevent it from being deleted. First, excellent program. Second, for those who can't select RealMedia core components when installing v2.
Just like Steve said in the previous post, RealPlayer left some registry entries so that Real Alternative will be blocked. I used Process Monitor to see which registry entries are checked when installing Real Alternative 2.
Just delete the "RealPlayer Real Alternative actually also checked "RealPlayer 6. So there is no need to use a registry cleaner like Free Window Registry Repair I don't mean Free Window Registry Repair is not good, just because there will be hundreds of errors after scanning, I don't know whether all of them can be deleted.
Installing Real Alternative 1. After installing RealPlayer, you can't use other player to play. There is a "cook. What "surprising" me most is that when RealPlayer is playing. Not to mention the bad UI design and the commercials on it. It took me a whole afternoon to figure out the solution of the problem. And I swear I will never ever install and use RealPlayer again, it's like a nightmare.
I need to use it to view rm movies with audio, and google isnt coming up with anything. Excellent codecs, but one of the problems I had when installing this on a second PC was that the Real Alternative 2. The reason for this is because I had previously installed realplayer on that PC. Even though realplayer was already uninstalled, the registry entries were still there and blocked 2. There are two workarounds for this issue: 1.
Use a registry cleaner and clean your registry of realplayer entries. I used free windows registry repair from regsoft, and after the 2nd sweep was able to installed 2.
The second workaround involves installing the previous version of real alternative 1. Excellent program. I found only one glitch. It won't self terminate with Replay Radio at the end of a broadcast.
Otherwise it streams just fine and works beautifully. Still running this most excellent project after 3 years. Not only is it light and easy, but Media Player Classic has turned out to be a most useful alternative to VLC for those weird flv and avi muxes that just won't run nicely in VLC.
Updates may be installed over existing installs; the installer detects all settings very well. Don't run such media from, for example, untrusted web sites. Uninstalled it once, can't reinstall the core components the option in the setup stays gray and can't select it pls help. I am also having trouble installing it on one of my machines, where by the core components and others are greyed out, which results in me being unable to use VirtualDubMod for RVMB. Please have a look at my post dated October 14, Should answer a lot of your questions and help you solve this.
Same applies to MPC. The bit version is the recommended one, even on x64 version of Windows. There is no bit version of Real Alternative. Is there a 64 bit compatable version? Real Alternative 1. I can't rate this as anything above 1 seeing as I'm unable to use this, due to the fact that it's not a codec, it's an application - rendering it open to the limitations of applications such as not working cross-platform, through different operating system versions, and having to use this "codec" to replace your current media player, instead of enhancing it.
Downloaded Real Alt and "installed" it I have a Vista64, so notwithstanding that it's supposed to run on Vista I presume it doesn't work on this Vista version. This worked great for me. I have some information that may be of some further assistance to those considering Linux as a replacement for their MS Windows or Apple OS.
The info is in the form of a link to my Nocturnal Slacker v1. Anyway, all content on my blog is free to read. The Slacker looks like a homage to Slackware Linux and nocturnal probably refers to night-time blogging. Slacker is a nick for Slackware users. The Nocturnal part is descriptive of my sleep habits.
After a short stint in the hospital in , I awakened to the possibility of living a diurnal lifestyle. I discovered mornings without having to stay up all night to see them. I have had an occasional, small problem with Windows but I have never suffered any problem of consequence. One day it was for too few updates and the next for too many updates.
I see claims about all the damage done but I have to be the luckiest guy on earth, I was never damaged by the world wide catastrophes that did so much damage to others. I believe that Windows updates can brick make useless some computers. Seriously, Ask Leo! I have used XP my 1st computer. Then Vista and on to 7 where I resided for a number of years.
I became quite adept relative to my peers but strictly GUI with a few rare exceptions. As I was coming on to 80 and Microsoft was about to shove Win 10 down my mobile data throat I started crying for help and Mark Jacobs mentioned Linux Mint.
Like a fool in Paradise I installed Full Monte available at that time. I soon registered on the forum and ultimately the gang put me straight — go simple and custom build. Sure, I had much to learn but that system helped me to no end. I have had replies within minutes on the forum. Furthermore it is a rolling release so no re-installation is necessary. One just updates from the repository weekly as I do or at least monthly. That does your system plus all programs.
Maybe every 2nd month I update the kernel similarly. I have virtually everything I had with Windows plus the whole LibreOffice suite. This system constantly comes up in reviews as deserving of more popularity than it gets. Just Google this: pclinuxos getting started. I should have mentioned that I still have Win 7 on a separate hard drive. My wife uses it for Adobe Photoshop and printing etc. It keeps chugging along but never on line.
The Epson Artisan works better with Windows. I had Windows 10, but it was so bad that my computer guy switched me back to 7. Now, the new thing with Microsoft is that they are using updates to old systems to totally mess up your computer, thereby trying to force you to use My computer guy had to turn off ALL updates so I could continue to use my computer.
I am a retired senior on low SS income and also a computer moron. I am now 75 and on the computer a lot…the old box died and i did a lot of soul-searching before buying another. Excellent solution, John. In addition to sandboxing also consider Virtual Box or another virtual machine simulator which allows your computer to simulate a different OS which is separate from your main Windows OS and keeps all harmful actions away from your main system.
Apple is no different; the most time-frame of support you can expect from either competitor is about 10 years from the public release date. Hi Eric: will you be more specific abt config? Linux, running in a VM would have a very small chance of being affected by what is happening in Windows. If so assuming that Linux is not also running how do you safely access the internet? I managed to restore Windows 7 by replacing the murdered Foxconn motherboard with an Asus, which was a huge problem because of the low-level drivers the CPU needs to communicate with the motherboard.
Computers are now cheap enough that I can use a separate computer Windows computer for CAD and a Linux computer for web and everything else. CAD has me locked into Windows. I use NixOS and when I had a question and asked it they were very helpful and not belligerent at all. I also found this great helpful attitude in the nmh i. However I do tend to struggle with my problems for a many hours before I ask a question.
This is only reasonable since they do not get paid anything for helping you. If your problem is not worth x of your hours to you then it is often not worth x of their hours to them. I still have Windows7 on my old Dell Desktop.
I use it now and then to access a program then transfer the info I need to a thumb drive and open it on the Linux OS. I also copy important files and folders to it manually, just in case, then with a bit of a workaround I can upload my important files and folders to my online Sync,com storage site.
I have lost faith in thumb drive storage devices. I have had many go corrupt in a short time. Also I can access my Google Web album which stores my pics and videos automatically. I also have a Chrome Book tablet which is great for watching movies and sports events without background program interference.
So I have found workable alternatives to MS Windows Even my LG phone works to access most of the online sites I use without the MS Windows interference and background Malware programs gobbling up the bandwidth and memory. My recommendation is to try Linux OS and Chromebook. If it does all that you need it to do, dump MS Windows and get rid of the frustrations. Just to add an important point to selecting an other operating system like say Windows.
For years I have used Linux Ubuntu As this was not available with Linux, it made it a no-no system for ordinary users. This in fact is the main drawback for Linux. Windows on the other hand, though not the best, is used by a lot of local people everywhere that can help. I am now back on Windows 10 and find it very nearly as easy to use as Linux was with plenty of local help.
Most distros no longer support 32 bit machines, and chrome browser 32 bit is outdated. I also helped a friend move from an archaic Windows laptop to a Chromebook with Google Drive for file storage, and that is working quite well for her. I also want to comment on the option to use a mobile device such as an Android or Apple phone or tablet in place of a Windows computer. I have successfully paired a Bluetooth keyboard with a mobile device, which can make typing faster and more accurate.
There are also other ways to do screen casting. I have not tried to pair a Bluetooth mouse with a mobile device, but I believe that can also be done. If you use a mobile device that can otherwise do everything that you need to do, then you could possibly have a reasonably functional configuration by using a Bluetooth keyboard plus screen casting and maybe a Bluetooth mouse. If you use an Android mobile device, then adding a Chromebook or Chromebox would be quite compatible and probably more functional.
Microsoft is steadily moving Windows to a leasing model just like Adobe and Office You can see it in the wording. Newer updates announce that Windows is a service. The idea, probably over the next five years is to change the perception of Windows to that of being a service that one leases.
So just as leased Photoshop has resulted in a number of excellent Photoshop replacements coming onto the market with licenses that have a one time cost.
I for one would happily pay a one time license fee to get away from MisFit, but until them I am stuck with their uncontrolled only partly tested updates. A recent Win 10 update broke VirtualBox on my machines. I tend not to consider it a practical alternative for most people, since it requires a fair amount of technical comfort.
Good article, I run a dual boot system, running Windows 10, with Ubuntu It is a different system and you will be frustrated should you try it, but plenty of tutorials on YouTube! Hi Leo. Nothing like that has been officially stated at all.
This was back in years past, when I was working for Dell Computers and Microsoft. At the time, I was working on Longhorn, codename for Windows Vista. However, research by Microsoft provided an insight to how many users would leave Windows for Linux or Mac if a subscription OS was introduced.
Just my 2 cents of input. I have gone through every version of DOS and Windows. I have also gone through a lot of Linux distros. Too many to count. In my humble opinion, there are few Linux distros that I feel are the best for new Linux users. Wine is easy to install with the software manager or through terminal.
You can also install Wine Tricks and Play on Linux to install windows software. Another option is Codeweavers Crossover. The desktop is fully customizable unlike Windows. Migrating from Windows 7 to Linux Mint was a breeze for me.
Xandros was one of them. Another great alternative back then was Lindows — which turned to Linspire then Freespire. I see FreeSpire has made a comeback. Zorin and Q4OS both come with wine, wine tricks and play on linux pre-installed, making it easier to install Windows based software. There are over 5, different games for Linux users. The amount of software alternatives to Windows software is unbelievable.
To sum it up, if someone is looking to switch from Windows to Linux, I have to say, start with Linux Mint! I just want one that works out of the box. According to NetMarketShare , Windows 7 still has a high usage quota. Since the beginning of , the market share of Windows 7 has plummeted to Windows 8.
The end of official support will make more sales of new computers, although updating is free. Upgrading to Windows 10 is free from Windows 7, whether you have your motherboard activated or if you have a license key. If you have not updated to Windows 10, it is probably because you do not like the fact that Microsoft collects system usage data in the form of telemetry; although there are programs to root up all that data collection, such as ShutUp10 or DoNotSpy This data is anonymous and is used to improve the use of the operating system, so your privacy is safe.
In addition, there are new programs that you can only use in Windows 10, in addition to the fact that new 7th generation Intel processors and Ryzen only have official drivers for Windows Photoshop , Premiere Pro, Lightroom or Office only work on Windows 10 in its most recent versions, and if you like to see things in 4K, forget about decoding HEVC by hardware with a system other than Windows Thus, you have the option of updating Windows 10 once and for all, whose support for updates at the moment seems to be undefined.
If you want to continue avoiding it, you can upgrade to Windows 8. The problem with Windows 8.
