No more bloated RealPlayer install. No annoying pop ups. Just grab this, and you're golden. It does exactly what you want plays your files and skips the drama.

Media Playback Without the Headache

This thing bundles in Media Player Classic (yep, that old school, lightweight player that just works). You can toss all sorts of files at it Real Alternative, QuickTime, whatever and it just handles them. No fuss, no weird errors, just your media doing its thing.

Codecs Galore

Here's where it gets good: you get all the RealMedia codecs you'll ever need, right out of the box. Translation? No more endless Google searches for missing codecs. It'll just play basically any RealMedia junk you dig up from the depths of the internet. Ancient radio shows, embarrassing home videos, all of it.

Plays Nice With Your Browser

• RealMedia Plugin for Internet Explorer: Yeah, IE still exists somewhere. If you're stuck with it, Real Alternative has your back just hit play, and your file runs in the browser.
• RealMedia Plugin for Opera, Mozilla, and Netscape: Not leaving anyone out here. If you're rocking one of these browsers (respect), you're covered too. Embedded RealMedia? No problem.

Streaming and Embedded Stuff? Covered.

Thanks to the DirectShow splitter, Real Alternative doesn't choke on weird file extensions .ra, .rm, .rmvb, .ram, .rpm, .rv, .rp, .rt, .rnx, .smi, .smil? You get the picture. Whether it's streaming radio or some old embedded clip from a website that hasn't been updated since 2003, this thing just works.
