Cameras different between RP8 and onereal!
Freydnot | Thursday, July 18, 2002 - 01:58 am     My wife uses onereal on her computer to watch the feeds. I use RealPlayer 8 on my computer. We have noticed that both of us have one camera that the other doesn't have. My camera 1 and camera 4 are the exact same feed (cam 1). My cam 2 is cam 2 and my cam 3 is cam 3. Her cam 1 and 2 are the same (cam 1). Her cam 3 is cam 3 and her cam 4 is cam 4. I get cam 2 and she doesn't. She gets cam 4 and I don't. They are different camera angles, so they really are different. My feeds have always been messed up like this (only 3 unique cameras). She says this is new for her tonight. I have confirmed that RP8 installed on a third computer acts the same way my RP8 setup does. I have also confirmed that onereal on a fourth computer works the way her onereal setup does. All 80k feeds are the same as the 200k feeds. Anyone got any ideas? I'd call real and complane, but I don't they they would care and would probably blame CBS anyway. |
Justin42 | Thursday, July 18, 2002 - 09:23 am     Are you sure you have the URL's correct in any "helper" app you may be using? I don't seem to have noticed duplicate feeds, of course, by the time I get a new feed loaded the camera's changed enough it's hard to tell. |
Freydnot | Thursday, July 18, 2002 - 01:32 pm     Yes, I have seen this happen in both the stock real player URLs in real player and using programs like RealTV. Am I the only one? If you go into connection statistics, click on the Streams tab, and select the real video stream, you will see a tag telling you which "official" feed number you are getting. This data comes from the server, so its pretty accurate. |
Jamspoon | Thursday, July 18, 2002 - 05:16 pm     I've noticed the exact same problem. I use RealOne, and both camera 1 and 2 are the same. In fact, in the green info display it labels what is supposed to be camera 2 as camera 1. I don't use any helper app, and I've double checked my URLs many times (out of frustration mostly). I had assumed up until this point that cameras 1 and 2 were messed up for everyone. I've certainaly read elsewhere on this forum people claiming that feeds 1 and 2 are the same. Surely CBS or Real Networks must have noticed that many (all?) people can't access 4 unique feeds? And if so, why aren't they doing anything about it? |
Jadeygurl39 | Thursday, July 18, 2002 - 10:36 pm     I am having a lot of problems with RealOne and haven't had problems until tonight? Would anyone be willing to help me? If so, please email me at jade@neb.rr.com or post here please? Thanks |
