From Rage3d.com Forums

HERE IT IS, what everyone has been waiting for. The delay was due to the fact that GI Bro has come to visit me today at work and has slowed me down all day with his continual "lets go get a coffee" routine.

Nonetheless now the 3.4's are available and there will be updates to:

1) the driver
2) the Multimedia Center
3) the remote wonder

For anyone who has a RADEON 9500, 9600, 9700 or 9800 make sure you head over to www.divx.com for a RADEON enhanced version of their player.

Also make sure you check out all the new stuff in Multemedia Center (EAZYLOOK) is really cool for the home PC concept

oh ya and did I mention there a few performance boosts and some bug fixes spread throughout



Enjoy and as usual let me know what you think or any bugs you may find at the CATALYST CREW feedback page

There are some RealPlayer problems fixed in this release, if I remember correctly.

Are the bugs in RealOne in MPC too?

I'm sorry, I don't know what bugs are fixed or what they were even. I just have a vague recolection that this release was supposed to have bug fixes related to RealVideo or RealPlayer.

I think it was related to RV9 codecs distributed with RealOne player. The codecs included in RealPlayer 8 had no problems.

When using HW acceleration, all RealVideo files displayed just garbage with plenty of green colour, both with RealOne player and MPC. The issue was resolved by disabling overlays in RealOne player's configuration panel.
