If you are using Firefox (don't know if you are) then I have a solution for you. Try this add-on called "Always on Top". Or for any browser DeskPins (Have not used this so cannot say for sure if it is virus free - however I did scan with norton 360 and it came up clean) [ Last edited by 01torres at 5-5-2011 14:35 ]

Ah. I see. I wouldn't count a feature that has absolutely no use and is a disadvantage to the user as an option. Hence my confusion. The pop out option is an improvement and makes it easier to multitask but is still far inferior to RP in that there are no audio or visual controls, i.e. one cannot change the pre-amp or adjust the brightness.

The audio control is at bottom right before the full screen icon (speaker) icon click and adjust the volume. Visual control can't you adjust that on your monitor.?

Yes I'm rather happy with the new pop-up feature! So far the new set up has worked fine for me. I miss RP, but I can adjust.
I'm not afraid of tomorrow, for I have seen yesterday and I love today.

for me with the addition of this pop up option, Flash is better than RP.

Choppy playback

Does anyone have a solution to the choppy affect. I now pre-load the episode in full before starting play, but after approx. 10 mins of smooth playback it gets really choppy. Anyone else have this issue ? Cheers Jane

It is an improvement, thanks for putting this in
I am not asking you to dye your hair red and call me Mulder, I would simple ask that you could consider the possibility...

YAY!!! I love having choices and RP always worked better and fast for me. Not as much buffering. Thank you.

Never having used vip.tv-video.net before and only used viptv.net - can i log in to vip.tv-video.net using the same username and password and still have access to my points? Great news on keeping real player - even if it only for a year.

You should be able to use the same ID on both as vip.tv-video.net was my bookmark before the change

Just wanted to post my opinion.... and THANKS for keeping the realplayer function going. We found the new streamed version to be choppy and slower to download. Using older computers, realplayer is very effective. Also something to consider about the comment regarding the fact that the new method will result in larger file sizes for downloads -- for many of us who live overseas, we have to pay for internet access (or have caps) based on the amount of data we down/up load. Being forced to download bigger files is not good for us, and our speeds tend to be slower already. The quality thus far has been more than adequate for viewing on even a larger screen for us. I also agree with the comment that a message on the main VIP site regarding major things like this upgrade would be great. We tend to only check the forum when we are having troubles. Thanks for providing such a great service!
