I just spent some time trying the RealPlayer in various ways also. When I finally got through the maze to the page with the link which gives you a choice of entering the chat room version or just the video this time I clicked just the video (56K choice) I received a message that either my network or my processor could not handle the content. I am not on a network, and my processor is 200 PII (no monster, but should do the job) and it is working fine. I tried this several times, same thing. Then I tried an archive at 56K, and it worked fine...as fine as usual. I could get the live feed at 28K, but it would not go full screen, but that makes sense to me. I have Microsofts player on my machine somewhere, maybe I'll give it a try. This is really a shattering experience (as a stockholder) every time it happens. It is just intollerable. We are just too used to the TV working. I can't see going back to my fathers TV.
