Send a Multimedia Clip's URL to a Friend

SUMMARY: Easily let a friend know about a great multimedia file you played with RealPlayer 10.5 without retyping the URL.


 

Just listen to or view a multimedia clip with RealPlayer and would like to send a link to the clip to a friend or two? Don't bother copying and pasting the web address URL to the clip. After playing the multimedia clip, just click "File" - "Send Media Link by E-Mail". Your default e-mail software will open with a message similar to the following:

"
A friend thought you'd like this streaming media. Play it now with your RealPlayer:

[URL_TO_LINK]

Note: This content may require the latest RealPlayer, which is not available on Windows 95, Mac OS9 or Linux systems.
"

From here, just enter your intended recipient's e-mail address, change the message subject and body if desired, and send your message complete with the multimedia clip's URL.
