:redface: what version did the x ship with, and if there is a newer version where can it be had.

thanks in advance 😉

Umm..he asked about the RealOne player version shipped with the X, rather than the firmware. This is one I wouldn't mind knowing myself....

Sorry!
Goto Real player and select Options/About product and you will see the version and product details. I think its version 3.1.240

yes thats the version i have, was wondering if there is a newer version for download.

where's that stu clark when you need him eh? 😉

I'd also like to know. I know you can get Helix Player but I tried it and noticed no difference so I removed it to free up more memory, is this an upgrade to the built in realplayer?

i was told the helix player is a fake rip off, i tried it on my x and it played.it also played mp3s but they were jumpy

The "newer" version is indeed the Helix player - Helix is the opensource implementstion of the latest Realplayer formats.

However, Helix doesn't really add much to what Real Player does apart from MP3 playback, however, it doesn't seem to do this very well either.

I used to use it, but then un-installed it and noticed a massive speed improvement. 😊

can anyone also send me the files for opera 6.2, the one i downloaded from their site was corrupt
