Strength:
As a dinosaur of media player, RealPlayer is a well - known brand. There seems to be no changes in the historical versions, yet RealPlayer 11 has changed a lot in functions--we could preview video files during the tool is downloading them. Besides it, the wide range of supported formats could be more: rm, rmvb, flv, mov and mp4. You can pause and record live streams and use it to encode purchased tracks in AAC at 192Kbps.
Weakness:
The tool would take a couple of minutes to startup and resource is taken more than Windows Media Player. Sometimes there would be occasional annoying advertisements. It is not compatible with Mac OS.
Benefits
The version gold of the RealPlayer multi-media player 11 released recently. The popularity of
RealPlayer is its ease of use and each version doesn’t change much. Yet the latest version is totally different from any historical version, both in the visual effects and functions. It is good news for users, for the latest one could support flash (.flv) format.
Before the latest version, it must be a joke to utilize RealPlayer for recording videos during playing process. This version could help users meet the need; besides it, RealPlayer could allow users to supervise the video files when downloading. Isn't it much more convenient?
Once there is a hot topic about 31 ways to download Youtube video files (at our website--http://www.downloadatoz.com/youtube-video-download/), there would add a more way, I'm afraid.
Why? Because the latest version of RealPlayer could download video files from Youtube, MSN, and Google Video, etc, amazingly, just one click you could wait for the downloaded files.
Every coin has two sides, so does RealPlayer. The latest version, though it is compatible with Windows Vista, yet the compatibility is not perfect and there would be some flaws. For example, the Aero effect of Vista could be affected by using RealPlayer 11.
Setup
It takes a few seconds to install; there is free from adware, spyware as well as malware, while there will pop up ads sometimes. When the installation has been finished, users would be asked to leave their email address and some information--it's up to users; that is, they could skip the steps of leaving information or follow the prompts.
Should you decide to remove this tool, it does offer users a shortcut to uninstall. Click it and the whole program would die away from your systems.
Interface
The latest version is RealPlayer 11 which is mainly in pitch black. It is very glaring compared with Windows Media Player. If your AOL is always on, the tool would connect automatically to the default recreational websites. It's considerate.
Since RealPlayer is very welcomed by common users, the common usage of this tool is not difficult. Each button is so familiar to users, even a beginner would not miss.
System Requirements
It is compatible with Windows 2000, ME, NT, XP and Vista (while Vista users should wait for a little longer, since the latest version is not compatible well with Vista). This tool takes up 13.4MB free space and the RAM requires 512MB. These requirements could be ignored as a common user's computer could be very qualified.
Conclusion
Real Player 11 represents a good alternative to Winamp or Windows Media Player. Its interface is extremely pleasant and the compatibility multi-format is one of its principal assets. However certain functions are not always easy of access and the price required to resolve certain functions advanced, will be able to reject some of them.
The service of RealPlayer is worth praising. Though the most function is free of charge, the service of RealPlayer isn't poor. If you have questions on installation, feel free to check on the official website.
