They have however been bought by EMC. Well, I have problems with Real also on Windows. It might be ok with simple MPEG Video filelists (.ram or .m3u). But I couldnt see much Video in SMIL. Quicktime was better. It is a PII, 233 Mhz, 64 MB Ram. The URL is http://www.uni-bonn.de/~uzs106/blatv.smi . SMIL is great, but still not fully devellopped IMHO. There are special QT tags and special Real tags. Is there any paper in the net describing the differences between the two players, describe the common tags in detail ? Currently I use the description in: http://service.real.com/help/library/guides/production8/htmfiles/smil.htm Best, H.
