Can we have an option for RealPlayer please?

jeremy · 12-30-2006, 05:20 PM

I'd say Helix is the best representation of Real on Linux. If there is sufficient demand we can also add the traditional "Real" player, but I left it off since it's based on Helix.

I use gxine and mplayer but I do prefer gxine. It's just very simple to use and doesn't get in my way at all. Since gxine is based on xine, xine gets my vote.

VLC BABY!

I just couldn't live without being able to retranscode anything I can watch. Plus it can play almost everything.

Larry Webb · 12-31-2006, 05:48 AM

kaffeine and I must admit the only other one I have tried is Helix

puntjuh · 12-31-2006, 03:51 PM

VLC for me, though i must say i don't dislike mplayer. But VLC just rox if you ask me.

Hitboxx · 12-31-2006, 06:49 PM

Kaffeine yes. Mplayer is a close second.

FredGSanford · 12-31-2006, 11:24 PM

VLC is for me...and mplayer.

TruongAn · 01-01-2007, 05:42 AM

mplayer is the best for me, it play anything I have

Xine for simplicity, Mplayer for multi-videotype-support..

I'll flip a coin for which one I shall vote for..

Heads = xine
Tails = mplayer

and the result is..

TAILS.. Congratulation Mplayer, you got my vote!

This year I started using KMplayer. I like it because it is small and fast and the user interface gives as much room as possible to video. Too bad you don't have KMplayer on the list, so I voted for Kaffeine which I was using before KMplayer.

Mplayer once you put all the codecs on it.

younker · 01-02-2007, 12:06 AM

In fact, I love kmplayer, but no option for it here.

fcaraballo · 01-02-2007, 03:09 AM

Voted for MPlayer.
