[newbie] Helix Player

2004-05-10 Thread JoeHill

Just in the process of snagging an RPM of the Helix Player. Wanted to know if
anyone out there in Mandrakeland has had any experience with this thing, good or
bad (esp bad...).

For some reason, RealPlayer is loading fine now on the Jon Stewart site now
(wasn't on my previous install...), but I can't get Air America [1] to come in,
though it did just a few days ago. I'm thinkin' they may have changed their
format, maybe Helix will play it? How it the integration of Helix with Firefox?
Will it interfere with the functionality of RealPlayer?

Any info appreciated, thanks.

 If by some chance they have gotten a sponsor they will have changed the format

 here is the reply I got from Neil Boortz on players.

Well, I may never get to find out if Helix works for anything, I registered on
their site, still waiting for an e-mail so I can get a link to download the RPM.

Not a good sign...

live in that alternate universe where SCO would be right, they'd still be wrong.
