I note that Amazon now offer sound sample from cds - a good
move, in my book.  However, although I have the RealPlayer

Does anyone know how I can get these sound samples?  It's a
great way of checking out new artists.

Have you checked the "Helper Application" section of Mozilla
Preferences to make sure the real media mime types are there?


I tried setting them to play with xine, and then tried play with
mozilla, but all I get are system freezes or crashed mozilla.

I also tried changing the settings in kde file associations.

All suggestions gratefully received, as I can't leave moz as
unstable as this.

Do you have the mimetypes audio/x-pn-realaudio and
audio/x-pn-realaudio-plugin?



I had the first, but not the second, so I tried to add it, but clearly I got it wrong. I guess my question is now the same as Stefano's. Can you tell us exactly what should be in those two entries?

MIME Type: audio/x-pn-realaudio Description: Anything you want. Extension: ram rm ra Open it with: /usr/bin/realplay8 (I installed the realplayer from Texstar)

MIME Type: audio/x-pn-realaudio-plugin
Description: Real Media Plugin
Extension: rpm
Open it with: /usr/bin/realplay8

I don't know if this will help any, but that's all I have. With my current setup I don't have any problems using Real Media streams on the net, and I don't know what differs it from anyone else's.
