Can't listen to AAR with Real Alternative 1.37............

[CrownPrinceBandar]

However, RA 1.34 works perfectly. I have them configured the same, and the only codec difference is the Real Media one (6.0.12.1059 in 1.34, and 6.0.12.1069 in 1.37). Seems the older codec works better with AAR. Also, every time I close RA, I get a windows error message - this began when I switched from 2K Pro to XP Pro.

Anyone else have this problem?

1. Here's a link to listen via iTunes

That will keep you from having to use that PoS RealPlayer.

2. I appreciate the effort..............

but I love Real Alternative. I chose it so I could avoid the POS Real Player (RAlt. is in no way affiliated with Real and uses an updated build of the old Windows Media Player). I'm thinking its a codec issue with AAR. My guess is that they're behind on updating their Real Audio codecs.

Thanks for the suggestion and link, though.

3. NP ... I use RealAlternative and MediaPlayer Classic when I can/have to

But sometimes rather than mess with codecs etc. for a couple of hours it's nice to just do what you wanted to do in the first place! :)

4. I also get a error message when I close

RealAlt, but it plays streams just fine. Mine is a recent install. Maybe you need a new version. Mine is 6.4.8.2
