Bug with RealPlayer Codes for dBpowerAMP Music Converter

[garyray]

WARNING NOTES:IMPORTANT YOU MUST READ: About RealPlayer Codecs for dBpowerAMP

A BUG in these codecs causes WINDOWS XP's Volume control for ( WAVE ); not the Main Volume Control to be set to zero every time a RealPlayer .RA or .RAM file is played; ( Playing any other file format doesn’t do this ).
Forcing you to manually reset the WAVE volume every time you play a RealPlayer file.

This may be because I use RealPlayer Alternative but I don't think so because any program I use to play ( .Ram or .Ra ) Files does the same thing.

Can anyone help as I had to uninstalled the codecs and do a System Restore so I could get rid of the problem!

Note: Sadly when installed they convert the RealPlayer files perfectly.

Can anybody else confirm this? I don't encode/decode real media files myself.

This most defintely does NOT happen in Windows 2000 Pro. I've not verified with XP yet.

I tested using XP Home with SP2. I also use Real Alternative but also played them back in Jet Audio and can safely say this "bug" does not cause the problems described on my system.

There's been a reference to something happening to the volume control in general when using dAP. Didn't think it was just for Real Media though.
