I was going to suggest mythstream too. The only downside for this may
be that the video plays in quite a small window. Not sure if that's
also the case when you do it with mplayer from the command line.

Mythstream can play streaming audio or streaming video (using mplayer)
 -- you just need to compile and install it, add it to your mythtv
menus, and then add the streaming URLs to your database.

I didn't know about the playlist option - thanks!

I didn't even do the shell script. I saved the .ram to the video

2. mplayer shoulds play any of those streams, ie:

rtsp://rmbcast.nasa-us1e.speedera.net/alias_ashburn1_btn/encoder/rmbcast.nasa-us1e/rmbcast_nasa-us1e_jan022004_1034_93365.rm

should work, if you have mplayer properly compiled and configured. Test
it!

4. put a zero length file (call it, say, nasa.avi) in the directory
where you normally put your mythvideo files.

5. goto the mythvideo setup screen and set a custom play line for nasa.avi like:

mplayer (other mplayer options you use) rtsp://rmbcast.nasa-us1e.speedera.net/alias_ashburn1_btn/encoder/rmbcast.nasa-us1e/rmbcast_nasa-us1e_jan022004_1034_93365.rm 


You could do it a bit more generally...make a shell script called
playram.sh:

snip
#!/bin/bash

fn=$@
url=`/bin/cat $fn`
mplayer {whatever mplayer args} -playlist $i
snip

Next, go to mythvideo setup and set the play line for .ram files to
playram.sh.

Now, for each realaudio stream you want to use, create a file containing
the .ram URLfor instance, for NASA:

File NASA.ram:
snip

MythBrowser, maybe? mplayer SHOULD play the Windows Media, but only if 
it is pre-saved.

I would look at MythBrowser. It might be your only hope.
