    Hi Guys.
    I know this is pretty far out, and yes i acknowledge that the Real Video is horrible, but is there anyway i can play this format though WIndows Media Centre 2005???

    Or if not, is there a currently available frontend that allows this ???


    thanks

    Install Real Alternative (which allows WMP to play RM/RMVB files) and then run a reg hack so that you can see the files in MCE.

    REGEDIT4
     
    [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.rm]
    "PerceivedType"="video"
    "Content Type"="video/realmedia"
     
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Multimedia\WMPlayer\Extensions\.rm]
    "Runtime"=dword:00000007
    "Permissions"=dword:0000000f
    "UserApprovedOwning"="yes"
     
    [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.rmvb]
    "PerceivedType"="video"
    "Content Type"="video/realmedia-VB"
     
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Multimedia\WMPlayer\Extensions\.rmvb]
    "Runtime"=dword:00000007
    "Permissions"=dword:0000000f
    "UserApprovedOwning"="yes"

     
    Note that this does not allow you to view streaming media, only downloaded.

    without going into the reg to look yet, are these changes or add-ins?
