ok. i've just about fucking had it with this horrible piece of software, because no matter what i do, it wont stop autoplaying audio cd's even after i:
- disable autoplay under cdrom drive properties
-disable 'when inserting a cd, start playback' under RealOne player itself
this is driving me nuts. please help.

I refuse to install anything that contains the word Real in the title. They are a bunch of shit bags who need sorting.

I think the trick is to install other software that you WANT to auto-play CD, etc.
like WMP 9.0, then it will override Real1

That doesn't really work...the only way of keeping the program on the system is to stop any services Real starts when you start your computer and then reassociating file types with other apps. Because whatever starts from Real when you turn your comp on changes everything back to play through RealOne.

but i dont want ANY program to autoplay cds! why cant this computer deal with that simple request?
why does it think i would be too lazy to manually do a few extra clicks to start my cd when i want it to?
i dont want my cd to be auto-played, because it could interfere with the cd burner program. before, right before a cd was completed, windows media player detected a new audio cd in the drive and started playing it, and fucking up the burning process with it.
blehhhh. thanks anyway.

you can fix this, but in different ways (if what you described didn't work) depending on what OS you're using.
But I don't use RealOne myself, cause it sucks and Realplayer was included in Netscape, and that's all you need to play thoose realfiles.
RealOne is like Winamp 3 and similar software that works not 'just as fine', but even 'better' in their previous releases.
any winamp3 fans here? If a person must use winamp at all, go for winamp 2.

Better yet, get Media Player Classic. It supports Real (and Quicktime) playback and is generally very nice.
The homepage seems to be down right now, but if you'll google a bit, there seem to be plenty of places to get it from.

if you do want to play realmedia files, get RealPlayer 7 or 8 instead.....still spyware galore but less bad than RealOne

You should be able to configure Real One to not be associated with certain filename extensions. I'd suggest going through the Real player config settings carefully if you hadn't already removed it.
Also worth getting, for any number of reasons, is TweakUI, for Win 95/98/NT/2000 or Win XP. It'll let you turn off autoplay completely. And it actually works this way.

hey thanks, i forgot i had TweakUI and yes this works.
i decided to reinstall realone again (yeah i lied when i said never to be seen again), cos windows media player could not read rm files and i dont know what else could.

I installed realplayer 8 plus (from kazaa of course) and gave as little information as possible. Ran ad-aware to get rid of the spyware. No problems whatsoever with it. Doesn't interfere in anything and only does its job when I want it to.

i have realone on my computer, it never bothers me, and only appears when streaming ram files... when you install it, there is options... you must choose wisely...

I hate RealPlayer. I hope it dies. I could not get it to work with DSL - it still took soooo long to load ANYTHING. And I am sick and tired of the autoplay too. Even when I had DSL, it would lock up my computer and I'd have to sit and wait for 5 minutes until I could shut RealPlayer off and get back to whatever I was doing.
