"12.0.1 has download that works"
October 2, 2012 | By prasm262
Version: RealPlayer SP 12.0
Pros
For quite a long time the download of videos did not work but now in Sept. 2010 they have finally fixed the bug. A new version 12.0.1 is on their homepage.
This is the only application that downloads and plays flash-videos in a deacent way.
Cons
The browser is too primitive to be usable.

"No YouTube downloading"
September 15, 2012 | By Nfiertel
Version: RealPlayer SP 12.0
Pros
Works some sites..the preferences often do not result in it opening as it ought so requires occasional starting app each time to get it to help for downloading. It used to be flawless now a C- . Does not work on YouTube any longer..One gets a series of small clutter files and not the Flv.
Cons
You got the complains already..no rel pros.
Summary
It is now a loser program compared to last year.s iteration.on a Mac anyway...

"It's useless and waste of time after downloading"
July 18, 2012 | By vdewan2005
Version: RealPlayer SP 12.0
Pros
Reception is Good and gets easily downloaded
Cons
Prompted on Free software-downloaded 03 times-but does not D/load a single video file; It did once then blinked on next demand of DL; It is a low grade trick perhaps to seek payment for up grading but looking at the behave of `Free' did not feel like-upgrading

"downloader does not work with all sites.."
June 12, 2012 | By NeilFiertel
Version: RealPlayer SP 12.0
Pros
well..hmmm...the player and converter work so long as one converts just a few at a time for otherwise it crashes or the conversion stops midstream. If the site permits downloader to work, it mostly does so..if you really want it to work however get iSKY EXTENSIONS and then the downloader works! no kidding...I discovered this oddity as the extension does link to the downloader from Real also.
Cons
Downloader is nonfuncitonal on many sites but see the pros to get it to work.
Summary
REal needs some programmers who actually know Mac systems as nothing works as it ought...free might be free but nonfunctional free costs me time and money...

I SUGGEST USING CHROME WITH ISKY SOFTWARE EXTENSION WHICH WORKS LIKE A CHARM. REAL IS USELESS NOWADAYS AND DOES NOT DOWNLOAD ANY FILES AT ALL. SAFARI BLOCKS ISKY SO YOU NEED TO USE CHROME TO WORK WITH ISKY. Reply to this review
