Does anybody know way how to play .VIV video files - nowadays? As fas as I found out, VIV is apparently some old format used by Real Networks. It seems that they've abandoned it completely- the official plugin is *really* outdated and doesn't work with current versions of IE.
Plugin's homepage: http://egg.real.com/vivo-player/vivodl.html
I tried a few players (most notably MediaPlay, which explicitly promises VIV format support), but to no avail. *Allegedly*, there is a VIV plugin for RealPlayer, but I wasn't able to find it.
I will appreciate any ideas. Thank you.
Edit: I've attached a video sample in VIV format. I got it somewhere from the Internet.
