Making a robust way to deal with the codec file: since RealPlayer.app can be moved anywhere in the filesystem, one would have to come up with a way to deal with that--perhaps create a package that will search the filesystem for the RealPlayer app bundle, extract the codec file, and install it somewhere in the fink tree, That way it's guaranteed to be in a unique location. > > I see it also has difficulties in seeing the wmv decoders.
