• The Mac-Forums Community Guidelines (linked at the top of every forum) are very clear, we respect US law and court precedence when it comes to legality of activity.

    Therefore to clarify:
    • You may not discuss breaking DVD or BluRay encryption, copying, or "ripping" commercial, copy-protected DVDs.
    • This includes DVDs or BluRays you own. Even if you own the DVD or BluRay, it is still technically illegal under the DMCA to break the encryption. While some may argue otherwise, until the law is rewritten or the US Supreme Court strikes it down, we will adhere to the current intent of the law.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying unprotected movies or homemade DVDs.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying tools in the context that they are used for legal purposes as outlined in this post.

Basic Video Player setup questions, Mac OS 10.1

Hi there,

I have OS 10.1.2 running on my Mac. I can see Quicktime files, but not files that call for RealPlayer or Windows Media Player.

I have downloaded Windows Media Player a ton of times and it is visible in my applications folder. Still when I click on a file that calls for it it does not work.

Real Networks only makes available for download on their Website the version of RealPlayer that requires OS10.2 or higher. I don't have 10.2 or higher, so does that mean i just can't see .rn files? What to do?

so maybe the question is: what is the optimum setup for viewing video from the internet for those running OS10.1.2, and what are the steps to get it working?

thank you very very much.
