True. There's always bugs to be ironed out and a lot of people hate realplayer. A lot of other people also had no problems with realplayer and fount it worked well (like me). So because of the switch to mp4 format, means more monthly internet usage per episode plus it takes me over an hour to wait for the buffering to stop before I can watch an episode. (Whereas with realplayer neother of these were issues). I think this is the best site, but now you can understand I am not happy with my favourite VIP site

SO Frustrated

One of the few easy things in my life used to be watching TV on this website, I live and work in Central America so English TV is one of the things that keeps me going. Such a nice thing exists no more. The old real player style worked just fine for me. Now the new flash player is slow, stops, and well.... I hate it. Absolutely positively hate it. Thanks for taking away one of the things that used to bring me comfort. I HATE THE NEW UPDATE!!!

For those that like realplayer what about using it as your web browser

Hi, another user here who cannot make the upgraded site work. RP worked fine for me; with the flash update I cannot get any audio at all, and the video is jerky and skips. Will give it another few days to work out some bugs, but after that it would be useful if someone could post the procedure to get refunds for unused points as I will never be able to use them if things don't get fixed....

Because that does not solve any of the functionality issues. Just behaves like a limited browser - none of the control for streaming video using realplayer work. Not surprising really since the browser is still just streaming flash, not the realplayer feeds.

Yes, that's a great idea. Also, does anyone know any other sites that offer similar services for watching good quality tv?

Unfortunately there isn't many sites that have this many selection of shows plus most of those sites only have current season they don't have older seasons. Refunds are easy all you have to do send a pmThis person. Explain the reason for refund and he will take care of it but it might 5-7 days to deal with.

I HATE THE NEW FLASH PLAYER!! it streams fine until about half way through where it just keeps stopping and starting, or the picture stops and the sound carries on. PLEASE change it back! I hate that I've paid money and now getting an AWFUL service.

flash sucks

flash sucks, always has always will. Go back to realplayer lads, this is pissing me off. Honestly, you took something beautiful and ruin it, what were you thinking. "If it aint broke, dont fix it"

vote

put up a vote page for real v flash, see what the users want. who cares about Ipad users anyway. Ipads are for people with more money than sense.

They aren't going to go back to Real Player after converting all those files to flash. Real Player caused issues for a lot of people. It worked fine for me, but many, many members requested what we now have. Give it a chance. It's only day 1, and I'm sure there are still a few bugs to work out. The admin here is very interested in meeting the needs of the members. As for the ipad thing, that is not why it was changed, but flash does enable those wanting to watch on their phones (not just Apple products) or other devices possible, which is another thing that was highly requested.

I'm outta here, I'll take a refund coz its not worth the stress. Just spent over an hour trying to watch 18 mins of smallville 10-19 with a 8mb connection, that consistently giving me over 7mb according to speedtest. I have no problem on youtube. Its rubbish and thats bull**** about about all the complaints of realplayer, I've been on this site since 2007 with no problems. I bet the the number of complaints against flash will far outweight real in a few weeks. If you add up all the users who had no complaints with real vs those who did complain, I think you'll find that they out number the complainers. So you'll have changed the whole site for a minority. And converting a whole site without running a test on some free episodes or casting a vote with the users is ridiculous. Living in Dubai and now my only decent TV access is ****ed. Cheers Lads Glenn You are welcome to do as you like, but profanity is NOT acceptable on this site. ~ waterlilybarb [ Last edited by waterlilybarb at 4-30-2011 15:06 ]
