Josh Kahn suggested the Real Networks G2 release..but it is not yet being generally released to developer members ...I am one and just attended their conference this past week...begged for one, but no go. They are planning a beta release in May. However, from Jin Yu: You might want to try HPAS: http://www.research.digital.com/SRC/HPAS/ I'm still working on the install...can't get the Intel JMF to run on Navigator 4.04, but will try again with 4.05.
