More than 60 broadcast, entertainment, and technology companies announced they plan to use or support RealVideo. 21) more than 60 video sites (I prefer 'channels') in Music, News, Sport, and Film/TV categories from household-name publishers, like Time-Warner, Columbia Records, C-SPAN, and Children's Television Workshop. I believe RealVideo is the enabling technology for a new mass media genre that I like to call TV Web (not to be confused with WebTV).Ĭheck out the demos and Yahoo's RealVideo Site Guide. The new player delivers decent video and stereo sound with 28.8 modems at higher bit rates, you'll get great near-CD quality sound and full-motion video at image sizes from 16 x 16 up to 640 x 640. The free beta RealPlayer (for Windows 95/NT/PowerMac released version will also support Win 3.1x, Mac 68040, and most UNIX platforms) and see for yourself. Probably because it's tiny, jerky, the audio randomly drops out, the picture freezes up, and (worst of all) there's nothing much to watch! Sorta like the early days of television.Īll that's changed with Progressive Networks' new RealVideo, which I believe will become the most Web-addictive app of the year. Impressive at first, but we stopped watching after a while, right? OK, we've all seen streaming (instant-play) video on the Web.
