how crappy realplayer is

billyvnilly · 15th April 2004, 23:14

so i was using real player to watch some dl videos. I turned down the volume. Turns out, the volume bar in realplayer controls your entire comp. plus, it doesnt even interface with the OS main volume, it overrides that. PLUS, even after realplayer is closed it continues at that level. I thought my speakers were busted or something cause i had to turn them up frigging high so i could hear anything.

friggin' realplayer

Real Alternative.

zootm · 15th April 2004, 23:20

there's a moral in here somewhere.

cyu · 15th April 2004, 23:23

This thread should go in the bitch section.

sgtfuzzbubble011 · 15th April 2004, 23:38

Never use pure, unadulterated shit, ever?

I almost beat my brother over the head with a wooden spoon when I caught him using RealPlayer on my computer. I soon impressed the importance of only WA5 being used and only in a deadly emergency situation, use Windows.

sgtfuzzbubble011 · 17th April 2004, 17:30

And that's why I don't let anyone else use my computer.

godoncrack · 17th April 2004, 19:02

and this will play my hard to reach porn?

sgtfuzzbubble011 · 18th April 2004, 04:46

Don't see why it wouldn't.

godoncrack · 18th April 2004, 19:43

Its almost too late now.
I deleted 1.5 gigs of porn two nights ago.
Some of it was that hard to reach kind.
I still have 3.1 gigs of winamp friendly though.

I think quicktime is a lot worse than realplayer!
Hate the goddamn thing.
Configured right from install realplayer hasn't bothered me much.

I have two thoughts on what this could mean.

Neither of which are good.

There's an answer for that too... Quicktime Alternative

Yep I hate realplayer, when ever I formatt - I try not to intall it for as long as possible.

I end up installing it when some site has .RAM things on it - and I HAVE to

sgtfuzzbubble011 · 4th May 2004, 23:18

If a site has media that's only in Real format, then that site isn't worth looking at.

I let my family on my PC once. My bookmarks and other files went missing, Along with new spyware. And I let them on for about 24 hours =/

Never again.

If you rearrange the letters in "Real Player", you get "Really Rape", and I think that just about says it all.

siebe83 · 5th May 2004, 19:13

but raas is right: quicktime is even worse
it's slow and it sucks
realplayer sucks as well, but i mostly prefer it to WM (mostly the only alternative if present on websites)

The search for the ultimate signature continues apace. I have journeyed from the peaks of Nepal to the depths of oceanic trenches. I have crossed deserts, jungles, swamps, savannas, steppes and frozen wastelands. I have consulted with seers, swamis, sages, scholars and savants. The peregrination proceeds purposefully.
