I will concentrate on the realplayer stream, but the technique would be the same for the windows media stream
1. the link for the live realplayer stream is http://www.nasa.gov/ram/35037main_portal.ram wget that file and when you look inside you will see this: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ cat 35037main_portal.ram rtsp://rmbcast.nasa-us2e.speedera.net/alias_ashburn1_btn_2/broadcast/rmbcast.nasa-us2e/rmbcast_nasa-us2e_dec312003_0922_52880.rm rtsp://rmbcast.nasa-us1e.speedera.net/alias_ashburn1_btn/encoder/rmbcast.nasa-us1e/rmbcast_nasa-us1e_jan022004_1034_93365.rm rtsp://rmbcast.nasa-us2e.speedera.net/alias_ashburn1_btn_2/broadcast/rmbcast.nasa-us2e/rmbcast_nasa-us2e_dec312003_0922_52880.rm rtsp://rmbcast.nasa-us1e.speedera.net/alias_ashburn1_btn/encoder/rmbcast.nasa-us1e/rmbcast_nasa-us1e_jan022004_1034_93365.rm 2. mplayer shoulds play any of those streams, ie: mplayer \ rtsp://rmbcast.nasa-us1e.speedera.net/alias_ashburn1_btn/encoder/rmbcast.nasa-us1e/rmbcast_nasa-us1e_jan022004_1034_93365.rm should work, if you have mplayer properly compiled and configured. Test it! 4. put a zero length file (call it, say, nasa.avi) in the directory where you normally put your mythvideo files. 5. goto the mythvideo setup screen and set a custom play line for nasa.avi like: mplayer (other mplayer options you use) rtsp://rmbcast.nasa-us1e.speedera.net/alias_ashburn1_btn/encoder/rmbcast.nasa-us1e/rmbcast_nasa-us1e_jan022004_1034_93365.rm (thats all one line) On Mon, 11 Jul 2005 21:11:27 -0500 Kevin Kuphal wrote: > Is there a way to play either the RealPlayer or Windows Media streams > from Nasa TV > (http://www.nasa.gov/multimedia/nasatv/index.html?skipIntro=1) in > Linux.
