The custom-types.conf file is correct. I believe Simon had installed the file in the wrong directory and he did NOT modify the file to fix the problem. In 6.5 the custom-types.conf and custom-convert.conf files are in the Alien directory in Plugins. -- bpa ---

That's odd - all the additions are in a file custom-types.conf and it should be installed correctly. For 6.3 it should be in the slimserver directory and for 6.5 the file should be in the Alien directory. -- bpa bpa's P

To follow-up on my previous posts, I had not installed the additions to the "types.conf" file. This meant that the slimserver didn't know how to interpret the rpm mime type and extract the RTSP stream from within. The "No items found in playlist" is now solved. Thanks to all for their help.

A couple of things: 1. The avisynth error is because you are trying to play a playlist - this is the proper version of your command Code: /opt/mplayer/bin/mplayer -vo null -cache 128 -playlist http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/realplayer/media/fmg2.rpm -
