Just as users can view the underlying HTML code that was used to create a Web presentation, RealServer contains a feature that allows users of RealPlayer (version 7.0 and above) to view the actual source code for SMIL, RealText, and RealPix presentations. Users can also receive file information for other media datatypes. When a user selects the View Source command from within RealPlayer, the Server sends a Web page that contains the source code or file information to the user’s browser.

Users can then "learn by example" and understand how to create their own media clips. Content creators will find this feature useful as they author and review SMIL presentations and media clips.

Use the settings below to configure View Source for selected paths. By default, View Source is enabled for local content, and cannot be disabled. You can also protect the paths to the URLs of source files.
