Lurk, no real suggestions, but I am not having any trouble with real and I am running XP. I did have to upgrade though when I signed up. Real said I needed a new version and took care of it. Could you possibly need to update the real version?

Need suggestions please. I have RealTV on my laptop running Vista and the video is very choppy (almost frozen-like), the sound comes through fine. I think I saw someone up thread have the same problem, but didn't see a resolution. Thanks in advance - everyone here has been so nice and helpful.

I tried downloading and installing BB Viewer twice and neither time would it work. First it said I needed to "buy" winRAR which I HAVE on my computer, so I ignored it and just did the exe. It hasn't worked so I've tried uninstalling the BB Viewer. It doesn't show in my program files, but it won't let me get rid of the shortcut on my desktop and I have icons on my toolbar which I also can't get rid of. Any suggestions? I'm thinking maybe it didn't totally install and he exe is only on my desktop, but why won't it let me get rid of it? It tells me I don't have authorization to remove it! I'm just using the Real Player which has the best picture I've ever had and I have the windows underneath by using Bonza's link. I don't know if they time out or not since I haven't left it on all that long. I just want to get rid of the remnants of BB Viewer. Help!

Thanks Dipo, but I got the same forced upgrade yesterday. I might add I got it right when the feeds came up (FOTH ran fine before). So sadly that didn't help. Sigh. I just have no patience for this. Heck if I did I'd use it to get my good puter online (gotta push myself to do that!). Thanks for the thought though.

Am using BBViewer with WinXP (desktop) and Vista (laptop) and it is working well. I made the size a little larger and the resolution is very good. Also, I am enjoying the multicam option that BBViewer added since Real is using it. Also like that it is FREE. Have used it for many years.

S.O.S. Draheid and/or anyone who is tech-savvy and who who can help please! My DH's computer is kaput. He keeps getting these two screens and can go no further. We've tried to follow the instructions on the screens but it won't allow us to do anything, the same 2 screens keep coming up. We've rebooted about a dozen times to no avail. Always, these same 2 screens. Our computer guru Bob, says we have to take it to be repaired. We are hoping it won't come to that. DH had a bad experience last time we took it to be fixed at Future Shop, cuz they were just interested in selling us a whole new computer system, and yet it's much newer than mine. So he wasn't impressed. I'll be posting the messages that he got in my next 2 posts. (If you have a PC & you press the CONTROL button and the + button it will enlarge your screen so you can read the screens I posted better.)

Start it up in safe mode and run your virus scanner. or better yet, MalwareBytes Anti-malware program! I have done this on 2 of our computers so far. Works like a charm! Make sure after you get rid of the malware, you update and run your virus protection program.

The bar feed is a different quad cam view.

I have a simple question (I hope). How do I just view my realplayer video without seeing the rest of the full real page and BB twitter stuff and all? I haven't found how to change that. Thanks

Kc...try doing that thing where you put your pointer in the corner and drag it to the size you want.

Mame just saw that. The safe mode is exact right starting point. Wish I could read the specific errors more clearly, but you may need to do a rollback to a known ok configuration. Do you guys know how to do that? First is to make sure the puter boots in safe mode to rule out a corrupted hard drive. Good luck! Will be glad to help if I can

There's no way to detach the player from the rest of the realpass page then? In years past I could always do that,so I could just have the actual player on top while doing other things on the computer. I checked "On Top While Playing", but the window still disappears when I look at another web page. I can only hear it when I'm doing something else, not see it. I must be doing something wrong, but I can't figure things out.

Kc...I did it by first playing it from Bonza's link, here: http://start.real.com/rd?pid=bb11&url=bb_hi.smil and then clicking the little icon in the left hand corner that says, play in Real. Will that work for you, too?

Thanks for trying to help Bee. I tried the link, but don't see any little icon that says "Play in Real." Any other suggestions?

Thx Junerose & Lurk! I only wish I could go into safe-mode or reset the date. We've done it before but it won't left us get past these two screens. Anyhow, I realized too late that THIS is the wrong thread. I found the correct thread for general computer probs, and the link is here: link to COMPUTER PROBLEMS / ASK HERE THREAD.
