Video on the Web is easy
Watching video on the Web is easier than popping a cassette into your VCR, once your computer is setup for Web video. To watch videos and clips on the Backyard Farmer Web site, you will need the RealPlayer, a free program (also called a "browser plug-in") that works with your browser to play video on your computer. The help topics below explain how to get the current as well as older versions of the RealPlayer and everything else you need to know to enjoy Backyard Farmer's video content.


Which RealPlayer do I need?
Like most software, the RealPlayer comes in many different versions that can be confusing. Because of the way in which Backyard Farmer video content is prepared for the Web, we recommend using the latest version of RealOne Player. Detailed minimum system requirements for using this player with either a PC or Macintosh are listed below, or you can view system requirements for RealOne Player at Real.Com
