Okay. I just did this whole process for myself and everything works perfectly. Here's what I did assuming you've got phoenix and realplayer. Open phoenix and go to http://news.bbc.co.uk/ which has lots of realplay material. Click on whether you live in UK or not. Then proceed to click on a video link ending in *.ram. Phoenix will pop up a dialogue box which gives you two options: open with and save to disk. Choose 'open with' and then click 'browse'. Then navigate to /opt/bin/realplay and select it. You'll notice that it has entered /opt/RealPlayer8/realplay in the 'open with' field. Now, you'll see that there is a check box at the bottom of the dialogue box which says 'Always ask before opening this type of file'. Do *not* tick this box. Press okay and realplayer will load the video. Then close realplayer and click on a different video link on the same page and realplayer should open that link automatically. There is no need to play with mime types. This is a simple one-time process and after that it becomes automatic. HTH. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
