RealNetworks Releases Helix Source

[hnl_dk]

According to this DigitalMass article, RealNetworks yesterday released source code for their audio and video players, with server-side and encoding software coming maybe in December. The code isn't complete, it's missing things like burning-to-cd routines; and they're getting flak from Microsoft calling it a ploy. Regardless, anytime a big company releases their source only good can come of it (for the public.)" Our story a few days ago had more information on the licensing, and gathered a couple of interesting posts from one user.

It would surely be nice with a port of the Helix Client for AmigaOS :-D

If the Helix Client first is ported, it would be possible that RealNetworks would port RealOne, that would mean: Great mediaplayer & Web-browser :-D
