Hi,

out of curiosity, I renamed /usr/X11R6, removed the USE_XLIB line from
the port. It configured fine (stating that all of the X11 video out
options were disabled), so I guess it will also build an run.

Given that fact, that you can also hack the linux-realplayer port not to
depend on the linux compatibility layer (which would probably introduce
a dependency on X11), and the fact that mplayer has its own magic to use
linux and even windows shared libraries, the OPs goal should be really
achievable.

 Actually, you can pass make WITHOUT_GUI=yes and it will not install X. 
 Yes, it does display videos on the command line. No, it's not pretty.

Wrong.  Mplayer depends on X if you define WITHOUT_GUI.
WITHOUT_GUI causes it not to have a GUI (available if mplayer is
invoked as gmplayer) and to not depend on GTK.


 
 Anyway, for just converting RealAudio into MP3, it should do the job nicely.

mplayer -vo sgva

works fine without X - whether you can build it without X, I
don't know and I rather doubt.

It makes a fine viewer for lynx, although you have to suid.  Since
it will no longer work with X if you suid it, I just copy and rename
the binary which I suid.
