Greetings, Recently my friend gifted me Powerbook G4 with 10.5.8 version. I am unable to install the video players like VLC,REALTIME. Kindly suggest the players for this version & I want to upgrade it to higher version, is this possible and how?
Download VLC Media Player for Mac free. Highly portable multimedia player for various audio and video formats. And AltiVec on G4 processors. 4 the OpenBSD 2.9.

Do you have any sound? Do you hear the startup chime? Does iTunes play audio, for example? Is the same true of the built-in speakers and the headphone port? If you use the Accounts System Preference to create a new user and log out and then log in as the new user, does the new user get sound with those applications?
If you 'zap the PRAM' you will reset the general system volume, but those applications may each have a volume of their own. If the system volume is up and the application volume is down, you still won't hear anything. You can reset the PRAM by restarting and holding down on the Apple-option-p-r keys all at the same time. Keep holding them down until you hear the startup chime for the third time. Then let go of the keys and allow the iBook to continue starting up.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Paris, France (2006/04/01) - In an effort to help Apple with its Intel transition, the VideoLAN team, distributor of the industry leading cross-platform media player VLC, announced its intent to drop support for the now outdated G4 and G5 based series of Mac computers.

'We had to do something for Apple in return,' former project leader Antoine Cellerier said in a public statement earlier today. Cellerier was referring to Apple's stance against the French DADVSI law. The controversed law, voted in March 2006 by French MPs, seriously jeopardizes VLC's development by forbidding French citizens to use software that bypasses Digital Right Management, such as DVD encryption or the protection scheme commonly found on music bought on the Internet.

But in late March 2006, Apple spokeswoman Natalie Kerris said the DADVSI law would 'result in state-sponsored piracy.' Apple then threatened to take down its French iTunes Music Store.

Despite Apple's tendency to send cease and desist letters to every website on the Internet, the VideoLAN team immediately understood that they were in fact trying to help Free Software. 'After all, they built OS X on top of FreeBSD's cremated remains, and used what could still be saved from KDE's bloated web browser to develop Safari, which can only mean they fully embrace Open Source,' VideoLAN developer Sam Hocevar added.

The VideoLAN team hence announced that starting from the next release, VLC would only run on Mac Intel hardware. Apple is already ahead of schedule; the Mac Intels were originally announced for June of 2006, yet that mark was beaten by almost half a year. Apple is confident VideoLAN's move will help finish the transition. 'VLC is the most downloaded OS X application. By making it Mac Intel only, we can probably make the transition even faster. Let's not repeat the PowerPC fiasco,' an Apple spokesperson said. The M68K to PowerPC transition, initiated in the 90s, led to the so-called 'fat binaries' and excruciatingly slow versions of the Mac OS.

When asked how long older versions of VLC for the G4 and G5 series of processors would remain available, a VideoLAN webmaster said, 'You'd better hurry. Our software is free, but webspace and bandwidth aren't.'

About VideoLAN: VideoLAN (http://www.videolan.org/) is a project to build open source, cross-platform multimedia tools. Their VLC media player is the most downloaded Mac OS X application according to versiontracker.com.

About Apple: Apple is the creator of the hyped and overpriced Macintosh computer. Until recently, Apple buyers could brag in front of PC users about how their PowerPC-based computer was twice as expensive, but also twice as powerful as the Intel-based counterpart. Now, thanks to the Intel transition, Apple computers are only twice as expensive.
