Description

Clip cache

To speed up playback of frequently used content, you can allow RealPlayer to cache the content, much like a web browser temporarily saves images and content. Click Settings... to access the following options:

Note: Not all content can be cached. The content provider must allow this ability.

Enable caching	(Default: On) Instructs RealPlayer to cache media files.
Clip cache size	(Default: 4MB) Move the slider to adjust the size. (The size is limited only by available hard drive space.)
Cache location	Set the location on your hard drive where the cache file is created.
Empty clip cache...	Deletes media files from clip cache. (This does not make the clip cache file smaller. RealPlayer will continue to reserve the amount of space set above in Clip cache size.)

Language

Preferred Language...

(Default: the installed language of RealPlayer) If you prefer that an alternate language be displayed when available, specify your preference here by selecting it from the drop-down list.

Subtitles (Default selection) Some content has subtitles available in different languages.

Overdub track When available, audio substitution is played in the language set above.

Accessibility

Note: If the clip has been authored without captioning or a descriptive track, these settings will have no effect.

Use supplemental text captioning...	(Default: Off) Displays captions when provided.
