Re: getting RealPlayer 5 running
Hi Joey Hess; unless Mutt is confused, you wrote: I take it you're not using the rvplayer debian package? You should try it. It's only in debian 2.0pre, but it makes installing real player very easy (and it should work on older debian 1.3 systems as well). -- see shy jo Sorry to butt in here, but just a quick question: I am using realplayer5.0, installed with rvplayer package from hamm, on a hamm based system. It works, and it worked first time I installed it. However, I can not for the life of me play _two_ songs in a row, without reloading the entire web-page; for example I listen to Cdnow site, hear the first track of whatever album I want to, all is well and once it is done, I exit the real player, click on the next song, player comes up and starts, but only noise comes out, and my system resources get apparently eaten by realplayer, since my mouse works as in very slow-motion. If I back out of the page, reload it and listen to it a minute later all is well (until I want to hear the next song). any ideas? My realaudio setting in netscape (4.05): audio/x-pn-realaudio /usr/X11R6/bin/rvplayer %s and audio/x-pn-realaudio-plugin RealVideo Player plugin TIA damir -- Unsubscribe? mail -s unsubscribe [EMAIL PROTECTED] /dev/null

It sounds like you have a crummy sound card like mine, and rvplayer is playing sounds in 16 bit mode maybe. I get this problem not with rvplayer, but with quake. Try forcing rvplayer to use 8 bit mode. -- see shy jo -- Unsubscribe? mail -s unsubscribe [EMAIL PROTECTED] /dev/null
Re: getting RealPlayer 5 running
Have any of you guys been able to get RealPlayer 5 running in Linux. Now
that
I am over the bash 2.0/Netscape issue I am not able to get RealPlayer
running.
I always get these errors when I try to open any Real Audio file.
Error 38 : File compression not supported. Cannot locate the requested
RealMedia decoder
The codec for this video was not found on your system, please upgrade.
you need to set your LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable to point to the current
directory where you have RealPlayer set up.
On my machine, Real Player is at
$HOME/bin/rvplayer5.0/
so my .bash_profile has
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}:${HOME}/bin/rvplayer5.0
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
this is mentioned in the install documents for rvplayer, I think.

I will give this a try. jmb I take it you're not using the rvplayer debian package? You should try it. It's only in debian 2.0pre, but it makes installing real player very easy (and it should work on older debian 1.3 systems as well). -- Unsubscribe? mail -s unsubscribe [EMAIL PROTECTED] /dev/null
Re: getting RealPlayer 5 running
I already have this is my LD_LIBRARY_PATH. I set in my .cshrc to where the
RealPlayer is installed.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH
/usr/local/packages/rvplayer5.0:/usr/X11R6/lib:/usr/local/lib:/usr/local/qt/lib
You're right, I read this in the docs.

Quicken almost works with the later versions of wine (but it's not exactly stable yet).
