And nothing happens when I get to .ra files or others... Simply proposes to download them to the local disk

Does it make any difference that my plugins are ".so" files ?
They should be, actually. Your helper applications list should be empty, also. The plugins take care of calling the apps when needed.

Do not know why.
I have lots of plugins that are declared to be installed (xine plugin, shockwave flash, default, javarpnp, nppdf) but NOthing in
So, may I ask you a favour?
1. how could I install an Helper for each of the plugins ? 2. also, I found 4 plugin directories on my system: mozilla, mozilla-1.3, mozilla-1.3.1, netscape. I have Mozilla 1.3.1. Should I keep all of the directories ?
thanks a lot.
Best regards
This is for an older installation but still works for the new Mozilla. I saved them from an old message, sorry didn't save the author's name...

1. If you don't have the player already, hit up this link and get it. 2. Go ahead and install it.
3. On my system, the executable installed to /usr/bin/realplay. Find out where it went on yours, and keep that info handy.
Now comes the fun part. Getting it to work with Netscape. According to help file for the G2 player, it will only play real audio and real video. But, that is incorrect as you will soon find out.
4. Open up Netscape and click on "Edit" and then "Preferences."
5. On the new screen that appears, click the little arrow next to "Navigator" and then "Applications."
On the right, you should see a list of all the mime types already in the system. This is where we will be adding in the info to configure the G2 player. Now, my system didn't have any of the stuff that follows set up, but your might have a start. So, before you add anything listed below, look to see if it is already there and add/modify as needed.
6. Click the "New" button to bring up a new mime type. 7. Enter the following settings, then click the "OK" button to save them.
Description: RealMedia File MIMEType: application/vnd.rn-realmedia Suffixes: .rm Application: /usr/bin/realplay %s
The description doesn't matter, but the rest does. Make sure to click the box next to "Application" to enable G2, and don't forget the "%s" part or it will just open G2 and not stream. If G2 installed somewhere other than /usr/bin/realplay, replace that part with your path. Another thing to watch is that you but the "." in front of the suffix.
8. Add all of the following using the steps 6 & 7.
Description: RealVideo File MIMEType: video/vnd.rn-realvideo Sufffixes: .rv Application: /usr/bin/realplay %s
Description: RealAudio File MIMEType: audio/vnd.rn-realaudio Suffixes: .ra, .ram Application: /usr/bin/realplay %s
Description: RealAudio File 2 MIMEType: audio/x-pn-realaudio Suffixes: .ra, .ram Application: /usr/bin/realplay %s
Now, your G2 player should work great with Navigator. But say you
hop over to live365.com and want to listen to for awhile. Well, live365.com sends you am mp3 play list, not a standard stream. This
is nice if you're sitting behind a firewall and your administrator
has blocked streamed data. To get this up and running on you Linux
box, add this last part into Netscape, again using steps 6 & 7.
Desciption: Live365 MIMEType: audio/x-scpls Suffixes: .pls Application: /usr/bin/realplay %s
So, now maybe you want to hop over to MP3.com and have a lsiten over there. No problem. look down the list for "MPEG Audio." Once you find it, click on it, then click on edit. Change the following:
MIMEType: audio/mpeg Application: /usr/bin/realplay %s
(Click OK)
We have to add another one now. Follow step 6 & 7 to add this one in.
Desciption: MPEG Audio 2 MIMEType: audio/x-mpegurl Suffixes: .m3u Application: /usr/bin/realplay %s
(Click OK)
That should do it. Now the G2 player will handle all that media from the web with little or no hiccups. Enjoy!
We would like to hear your feedback.
