I'm with Dietrich.

This is now a long-running raw spot for me.  My problem is, NO MATTER
WHAT I TRY, I am unable to run RP8 with Mozilla.  (It runs adequately
with Netscape 4.6.1.)  The symptom I see on Mozilla:  instead of
realplay.exe.cmd running, my display blinks (as though graphics modes
had been switched), then goes back to showing the webpage in which I
had clicked on the audio URL.

I have corresponded with at least one person for whom RP8 plays ok with
Mozilla.  So it *can* be done.  Seems to me there must be something
about the setup (i.e., the environment) in which I run Mozilla that
prevents realplay.exe.cmd from being run.  (I put in a 'touch mjg.mm'
as the first executable line in that .cmd.  No 'mjg.mm' anywhere in my
system -- my conclusion is that realplay.exe.cmd in not getting control.)

I'm getting gun-shy.  Every time I try RP8, there's NOTHING that I can
do to get it to work.  The furthest I got was to set up an editor as the
'helper application' to receive application/octet-stream MIME types.
Getting that to work showed me that my Mozilla *can* invoke a 'helper
application' that I have specified.  But why doesn't it successfully
invoke realplay.exe.cmd on audio/x-pn-realaudio MIME types ?    scream!
