Hi again Paul,
I've just gone to the Infosound site, my first time there, and noticed in their introduction that the files can be downloaded to an MP3 player so I thought, surely this isn't a Real Player file type, and when I clicked the link to play the April bulletin, it started playing in Winamp, and the address bar displayed it as an MP3, so whatever player you use to play MP3 files should have started up, not Real Player. 

Regards,

Pete H.

Hi Paul,
The version of Real Player available on the BBC website should play all Real file types, so maybe there is a problem with the link you were trying to use, I'll take a look now and get back to the list.

Subject: [jaws-uk] real player query



Hi all,

Some time ago, I posted a mesage enquiring as to why I couldn't get real
player to work on some sites.
I was told that as I had downloaded Real Playe er from the BBC site that it 
wouldn't necessarily work with other non BBC sites using this type of
player.
That said, I do visit other sites which use Real Player and it works without 
any difficulty.
I have just visited the Infosound website which is the replacement for the Soundingsmagazine. I attempted to listen to the April bulletin but when I tried to do this, all that happened was that Real Player launched and I got 
complete silence.

This is a little frustraighting and so I would appreciate it if others on
this list could shed any light on this one.

It was also suggested to me that I had in fact downloadded ralone player
rather than real player from the BBC site, even though it says quite clearly 
Real Player.

Any help on the above would be appreciated.

Regards

Paul.
