RM support on winMCE

Hi Guys.
I know this is pretty far out, and yes i acknowledge that the Real Video is horrible, but is there anyway i can play this format though WIndows Media Centre 2005???

Or if not, is there a currently available frontend that allows this ???

thanks

RE: RM support on winMCE

Install Real Alternative (which allows WMP to play RM/RMVB files) and then run a reg hack so that you can see the files in MCE.

REGEDIT4

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.rm]
"PerceivedType"="video"
"Content Type"="video/realmedia"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Multimedia\WMPlayer\Extensions\.rm]
"Runtime"=dword:00000007
"Permissions"=dword:0000000f
"UserApprovedOwning"="yes"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.rmvb]
"PerceivedType"="video"
"Content Type"="video/realmedia-VB"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Multimedia\WMPlayer\Extensions\.rmvb]
"Runtime"=dword:00000007
"Permissions"=dword:0000000f
"UserApprovedOwning"="yes"

Note that this does not allow you to view streaming media, only downloaded.

RE: RM support on winMCE

without going into the reg to look yet, are these changes or add-ins?
