Greetings.

I've noticed the following anomaly with the latest release of OW 5.5.1 and RealPlayer 10.1.0 for Mac OS X, the latest version of Real Player. I'm running Mac OS X 10.4.8 on a PM G5 @x2.3 GHz with 4.5 GB RAM.

If I go to a page on Amazon.com, look up a CD, and attempt to play a track clip using RealPlayer, and RealPlayer has not previously been launched, here's what happens:

1. Multiple windows start launching.
2. RealPlayer displays the following message in a dialog:

Quote:
RealPlayer cannot run on this computer.

This computer is running Mac OS X version 10.4.8.
This version of RealPlayer requires Mac OS X 10.2 with Safari
installed, or Mac OS X 10.2.8 or later.
One has to click Quit in the RealPlayer dialog before OW stops spawning new windows.

Additionally:

• I do not see this problem in the latest version of Safari.

• If RealPlayer is launched before attempting to play the track clip, then the track plays properly.

• The only difference in how Safari and OW are configured is that Flash is disabled as a plug-in for OW.

• The following messages were displayed in console.log when attempting to play the track in OW where RealPlayer was not running first:
