crossover - any good?
|
|
|
| I am thinking about installing crossover on Mandrake 9. I wanted to
hear peoples opinions on it first. I need to be able to plugin WMP to
Netscape 7. (I have mplayer, but cant figure out how to make it work
like a plugin for streaming video or audio) I was told to use
"crossover". Is this a program that constantly runs or just when I need
it. Thanks, Rob

Hmm... so you're recommending it having never actually *used* it?
FWIW, the purchased version seems to work OK for me, it installed
QuickTime 6 OK. The downloaded demo version I tried didn't work very
well, though.
HTH,
Tim
