Here is one of the tests I ran from Firefox (this was just the first
URL I clicked on Real.com to test it).
http://www.film.com/tv/story/liveearthmusicgoesgreen/15351235
Click on one of the videos. On my system I get the message:
"Could not find an appropriate hxplay or realplay in the system path to
use as an embedded player"

I've got helix as a plugin:
Helix DNA Plugin: RealPlayer G2 Plug-In Compatible

    File name: nphelix.so
    Helix DNA Plugin: RealPlayer G2 Plug-In Compatible version
0.4.0.622 built with gcc 3.3.3 on Jul 18 2006
audio/x-pn-realaudio-plugin     RealPlayer Plugin Metafile
rpm     Yes

If I go to realnetworks.com: (Click on bottom of real.com)
<http://www.realnetworks.com/?pageid=linuxHomePage&pageregion=footer&src=realhome_linux_bb_0_1_1_0_0_3_0&pcode=rn&opage=realhome_linux_bb>
and click on "Watch: Using a Content Delivery Network", it downloads,
opens and plays correctly on RealPlayer 10. 

But, if I go to http://www.real.com/bigbrother and click on signin, it
wants to download signin.rnx, and when I try to open with RealPlayer
10 it pops the message:
The player does not have the capabilities to play back this content.
Click on details:
The following components are required:
mx

URL: file:///...../signin.mx

Note that signin.rnx was downloaded. 

Again, my primary objective is for my wife to view the BigBrother feeds
on my laptop (SuSE 10.2).
