CarstenKuss Group: Musicians Posts: 362 Joined: Nov. 1999 Posted: Jan. 18 2001, 15:42 Nobody replied so far. What does this mean? 1) Starting the VR is very simple. If you can't do it, Carsten, then you're a hopeless case. No use trying to explain to you. 2) I have no idea either. Please vote! -Carsten- -------------- -Carsten- Back to top

Korgscrew Group: Super Admins Posts: 3511 Joined: Dec. 1999 Posted: Jan. 18 2001, 17:12 More number 2 than number 1 But what do you mean exactly? Are you trying to open the VRML files (the cactus, etc) or the RealVideo files, or do you mean something else...? Back to top

CarstenKuss Group: Musicians Posts: 362 Joined: Nov. 1999 Posted: Jan. 18 2001, 18:18 Hi Korgscrew, what I mean exactly is: 1) Video clips: When I left-click on one, I get cryptic characters on my screen. When I right-click on one, I can download a *.rm file. (e.g. planets.rm) When I try to run that, RealPlayer says: "A General Error has ocurred". 2) VRML files: When I left-click or right-click on one, I can download a *.wrl file. (e.g. cactus.wrl) When I try to run that, I get the error message "No RealAudio or RealVideo document". What's wrong? -Carsten- -------------- -Carsten- Back to top

Download CosmoPlayer at http://www.cosmosoftware.com/ Hope that it will help you -------------- Rejoignez la Tubular Mailing List francophone ! http://www.tubular.free.fr/tubular.php Back to top

CarstenKuss Group: Musicians Posts: 362 Joined: Nov. 1999 Posted: Jan. 22 2001, 16:13 Thanks Vinz, yes that helped a lot. I couldn't contact that site, but I got CosmoPlayer from http://www.cai.com/cosmo/html/win95nt.htm . Now I can move around a cactus and a sprite. But there is no music ... should there? -Carsten- -------------- -Carsten- Back to top

Korgscrew Group: Super Admins Posts: 3511 Joined: Dec. 1999 Posted: Jan. 23 2001, 15:13 As far as I know, VRML doesn't support music and I believe it's perfectly normal that you don't hear anything while viewing these files. With RealPlayer, have you installed the latest version, and if you have, have you tried installing it again, in case some essential files have gone missing or become corrupted? Back to top

CarstenKuss Group: Musicians Posts: 362 Joined: Nov. 1999 Posted: Jan. 23 2001, 17:36 My RealPlayer Version is 6.07.380 - no idea if it's the latest. -------------- -Carsten- Back to top

Vinz Group: Members Posts: 253 Joined: Feb. 2000 Posted: Jan. 24 2001, 10:24 For your realvideos, you need either RealPlayer V7 with the RealVideo plugins or The RealPlayer V8, or it won't work -------------- Rejoignez la Tubular Mailing List francophone ! http://www.tubular.free.fr/tubular.php Back to top

CarstenKuss Group: Musicians Posts: 362 Joined: Nov. 1999 Posted: Jan. 24 2001, 18:51 Where can I get that? -------------- -Carsten- Back to top

Vinz Group: Members Posts: 253 Joined: Feb. 2000 Posted: Jan. 25 2001, 04:43 Oups, Sorry, thought I told you... You can find a free version of RealPlayer V8 Basic at http://www.real.com ! -------------- Rejoignez la Tubular Mailing List francophone ! http://www.tubular.free.fr/tubular.php Back to top

CarstenKuss Group: Musicians Posts: 362 Joined: Nov. 1999 Posted: Jan. 25 2001, 16:18 Thanks Vinz, I installed it yesterday. But I still can't play the *.rm files from Sonic VR. I get the same error message as before. I *can* play other *.rm files, however. Strange, innit? -------------- -Carsten- Back to top

Vinz Group: Members Posts: 253 Joined: Feb. 2000 Posted: Jan. 25 2001, 17:35 Sorry, but if you really have the RealPlayer Version 8, correctly installed, I can't help you anymore... I thought it was enough to read all the .rm -------------- Rejoignez la Tubular Mailing List francophone ! http://www.tubular.free.fr/tubular.php Back to top
