On the boulderpages you'll find links to films. These filmps are no ordinary avis, but realvideos. To be able to look at these you need a plug-in called Realplayer. This is a program you can download from the net. Our films You can look with the RealPlayer or newer versions, at this moment available for Windows, Mac, Linux and many more operating systems. On the download-page you'll find links to two versions: the free RealPlayer (look thoroughly to find the right link!), and the RealPlayer Plus (not free so you don't want that one). Ergo, download the right version. after downloading this plugin you have to install it (for Windozers: doubleclick on the file you just downloaded).
The RealPlayer gives better quality the better your internetconnection is, so people with a cablemodem or direct acces without modem have good quality. With a normal modem you're less lucky. Usually the films are not really splendid to look at if you have not minimal 56K or ISDN.

Configuration for RealPlayer G2 behind a firewall
If your pc is behind a firewall, and you have problems looking at films at some sites , than the firewall might not be configured to granting datatransport needed for the Realplayer.
First you'll have to find out if a firewall is reaaly causing the problem. If you find out it is indeed a firewall, than the most simple way to solve the problem is to ask the provider / webmaster granting datatransport for the RealPlayer . Befor you take the next steps, check briefly at your provider / webmaster the policy concerning the acces to the Internet.
