This is my second repost of this message it didn't make it the first time
Hi,
I am not sure exactly where to look. I tried the search method and didn't
get anything useful from the search engine. I tried redoing the settings for
the helper applications for netscape such as for mime type I re entered the
following:
MIMEType: audio/vnd.rn-realaudio
Suffixes: .ra, .ram
Application:
/usr/local/RealPlayer7/realplay %s
I still get no sound out of the player. The realplayer does show that it is
buffering and it does give the name of site that it is buffering on the
title bar. The only thing that I noticed is that the Netscape preferences
seem to rewrite values, eg. for Suffixes it gives .ra, .ram, /, / instead
of what I originally entered .ra, .ram . Is there anything to this?
Otherwise any help is much appreciated!
Thanks,
Mike
