-- SMIL 2.0 content with transitions - particularly when combined with Alpha Blending - may not always display smoothly or correctly.
-- When using more than one monitor, and viewing content in full screen mode, RealOne Player may use one monitor for display and the other for the controls.
-- To use the web browser plug-in, RealOne Player must be installed and run on a local hard drive, not from a server.
