Problems with trplayer.

[Janina Sajka]

Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but this isn't an open source application. It's proprietary. You can't have the source and compile it yourself, or tweak it, or whatever, because you can't. You can go to Real and say I want to and sign their paper and get their SDK. But, you can't just do it because it's proprietary.

Am I wrong?
