In any case both recent versions of ffmpeg and mplayer in portage, 20061016 or better, have the newer ffmpeg real decoder. However I'm not sure it supports everything in real10 or whatever they're calling the Helix format. You can also skip installing win32/real codecs and download the codecs directly from mplayer in their essential codecs pack, but you might need to massage them into place on Gentoo. I'm not sure why the Gentoo ebuild requires the realplayer package to get the real codecs.
There's no need to install the codecs manually, I've already setup all the ebuilds to pull everything in you need on amd64 and x86. Just run ~arch on all four (mplayer, realplayer, win32codecs, amd64codecs), and you'll be gtg.
