I got it... It's a classic OSS vs. ARTS issue... here's the poop... After installing REALPLAYER 8 for Unix on customers laptop... Mozilla fails to play *.ram files while running KDE desktop.
The fix... After adding a helper app to Mozilla with the correct mime type of: audio/x-pn-realaudio-plugin and pointing to /usr/lib/RealAudio8/realplaywrapper I then moved to /usr/lib/RealAudio8 and created the following script named: realplaywrapper #!/bin/bash artsdsp /usr/lib/RealPlayer8/realplay.exe $1 #end of script. Do a chmod +x on the script... Then close mozilla, open it again and go play some *.ram links... It's a kludge... but the man with the money is extremely happy... :') On Sat, 12 Oct 2002 15:34:42 -0500 ronnie gauthier <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Add a "%s" at the end of the command maybe. > > > On Sat, 12 Oct 2002 16:21:12 -0400 > Jerry McBride <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > >I'm trying like hell to get Mozilla and RealPlayer to work right... but > >I can't seem to get this windows crap to work right!@ > > > >Anyway's... realaudio run's fine when executed from a konsole... the > >dialog pop's up, I can get it to play audio by clicking on file>open > >file or open location... > > > >Under Mozilla, I've gone into preferences and setup a helper app entry > >to cause mozilla to execute realplay when I click on a link containing > >*.rm extentions...
