Well, RealPlayer changes your preferences so that it becomes the default application for just about every media file you have.
I hate it when programs do that.

Ah, yes but that is easily fixable.
Oh, and play Cantr II at www.cantr.net.

RealOne is just realplayer with even more garbage tagged on.

Real is very closed. There was a program a little while back that could store streaming real content as a file on your hdd for later viewing. But Real decided that they didn't like that so they got the lawyers out and shutdown the project. I don't like companies that display that kind of tactics.

I found an older version of RealPlayer on my hard disk, and watched the vid.
Its very good-----there aren't many Mal/Inara vids, and this one is certainly a worth entry into that catagory. There were even a few scenes and dialog snippets that I couldn't immediately place, which is rare.
However, the Real codec still sucks. Its a lot more jerky than Divx, MPEG, or QT; its not even as good as WMV. Might just be the age of the player, but I don't think so.
There's also the fact that, at least in *this* version of Realplayer, there's no support for screens which are wider than 4x3. So its "full screen" mode leaves black bars on all four sides of the image on my screen.

Very skillfully done, and I admire that you did it with such limited resources (ie only a baker's dozen episodes). Kudos to you!

Thanks everyone for the feedback and comments, I very much appreciate it.
Lindley, I think it might be the age of the RealPlayer version you're using, as I've had no jerkiness problems myself and haven't had it reported back to me by others, either. Nonetheless, thanks for putting up with the media format to watch. :)
Since I was going to do it anyway, I hurried up the WMV format of the vid and am posting it to my site shortly (it will be right below the RM link when it's ready). Not sure if that's better for some folks, but it's at least another option.

Fantastic! I was starting to get teary eyed there for a minute. It may not be kosher to vid to Enya, but that was the perfect "companion" to those clips. ;-)
I actually wondered across your site awhile ago while in search of Buffy vids and now I'm trying to make my own! Any advice for a first time vidder?
