I have never had to reload and have used the url rtsp://start.real.com:554/rd?pid=bb8_live&url=quad_350.rm

Have no idea where I got this except this website is the only one I have ever used for the links. Does anyone remember when or why we added the "554" part?

Thank you for asking that question, Indybarb. I need to know that too, even though I did it last year! I'm so clueless.

OK.., I am so helpless... RYN... I see your links and would do the 256 ones.. however, I still can't remember where to put all those lines for each cam and then how to drag them to my desktop for shortcuts.. HELP?

Perhaps this is a solution ...

right click on your desktop and select NEW + SHORTCUT

paste the URL in the window that opens (substitute http instead of rtsp if necessary)

NEXT

Name your icon ex: BBCAM1

close out

repeat for cam 2 through 4 and Quad

But... first... when I go to Real and under File, I have headings for each camera. Is there some way I can just click on them and make them each a shortcut on my desktop screen?

I think I am finally ready for the new season.. breathing a HUGE sigh of relief! thanks again!! (ps, hope this does not become a double post.. tried posting before with no success)

I subscribed on Friday or Saturday but can't get Real to connect. It keeps telling me I'm offline

I've uninstalled it, deleted all traces and then reinstalled it...same thing. The kid can't get it to work half the time on his computer or laptop either. We've turned off our Shaw Secure...no difference

I'm going to be ticked if I can't get this working by Thursday. (I plan on coming home after work, watch the show then it's on to the LFs)

Hellllppppppp!

I subscribed over the weekend. According to the real.com site, I'm now a SuperPass member in good standing. However, when I try to do anything on SuperPass, it tells me I'm not a member. I try to log in and it just returns me to the generic SuperPass home page showing that I'm not logged in.

Geez, every year there are problems with Real. You'd think by now they'd have it working correctly. Or is it just me? :-)

Hi Guys, Is it just me or when you put the URL in Real player is it going anywhere for you or just keeps trying to connect? I tried going through KeyHole Dans site and it does the same thing.. Maybe its just because there aren't any feeds up yet, but thought I saw somewhere that someone was getting blank screens at least..

Nope, son and I are getting the same thing as you: Log in...trying to connect...not online...you're working offline...log in...

It keeps doing this circle

Just signed up for SuperPass through the BB Reloader site. Got everything working with a minimul amount of trouble. Yippeeee!!!
Suppose the music they are playing now is the new FOTH or what ever you want to call it?

I can't get the SuperPass screen to accept my login. I can log in to the generic Real player pages just fine, but when I try to use anything that needs Superpass, it says I have to log in and when I do, it just returns me to the intro page (superpass.real.com) and shows that I'm not logged in. My real.com account page shows me in good standing as a Superpass member. I deleted cookies. I uninstalled and re-installed RealPlayer. I'm at a loss. :-(

Max:

At this point you may need to voice call Real's technical support.

Maybe someone can post that number.

I had trouble when I first signed up also.

I went to tools,privacy, and clicked allow Real Player cookies and it worked after that.

I had a problem with Superpass at first also and even though I had signed in to Real Player, I couldn't get Superpass to connect. I browsed RP's Troubleshooting section and found the following solution which solved my problem so wanted to share in hopes it might help someone else out there:

Solution 2: Check RealPlayer’s online status setting.
RealPlayer detects online status by default. If this detection fails, RealPlayer may be incorrectly set to Work Offline mode. If you are using a network connection or have a cable modem or DSL connection, you can override this detection and force RealPlayer to assume you are online all the time.

To change the online status of RealPlayer:

In RealPlayer on the Tools menu, click Preferences. The Preferences dialog opens.
Under Category, click Connection.
Click to select Assume I am online.
Click OK.
Restart RealPlayer.

Thank you so much Ryn and everyone for the help! All sorted out here, though we Mac users certainly get screwed.

Anyone with a problem with the music...don't you remember the last year with that INSANE driving beat and incessant melody? SO LOUD. You know, you have it turned up high to hear those late night whispers then suddenly BAM, you're watching Knight Rider. AUGH. Running for the computer every two minutes while the HGs decide to sing repeatedly, not my idea of a good time. Hopefully they will keep this admittedly insipid music instead.

Here are the RealPlayer numbers as requested above -
(found at https://service.real.com/contact/help.html?product=subs) though that may just be a link subscribers can use.

These are all for SuperPass issues-

Customer Service (Password help, billing, and status of your account) 1-866-585-4541

Tech Support (SuperPass and video sign-in, downloading, and other tech troubleshooting) 1-866-585-4542

To Cancel - 1-866-212-1343

God, this music IS grating. Nothing will ever be perfect. Quiet sounds of water might be nice. Though I think that happened one year and it made us all want to pee.
