Okay, I've got some videos I'd like to play, but they're too dark, and I can't seem to be able to control the brightness. They're realmedia files, and I'm using real alternative.

If anyone knows how to fix this, it would be quite helpful.

It depends on which codec you're using (divx, xvid, mpeg2, mpeg4, ...) => some of them, depending on the way they've been installed, are more or less configurable. You should have a way to open the actually used codec's property page, within real alternative (i don't use it so i don't know how to).

If you don't find out how, you can use GraphEdit [ www.stokebloke.com ] or [ files.digital-digest.com ] for example). This small freeware reads any multimedia file and displays the graph of codecs which are currently being used to read this file. There you can have an easier access to the codecs' settings, provided they do exist.

Anyway if it's only brightness you can always set it directly on your screen, for the time you play the video.

My screen is already as bright as it can be, but I'll check your links, thanks. :)
