Actually I do, if I can't get Real streams to play in Totem — RealPlayer's UI is actually very good. (And I'd rather use a closed-source program with a decent UI than an open-source one with an awful UI, all else being equal.) > Maybe its a > problem with the codecs that you have (or probably don't have) > installed on the system? Ah, I thought installing Helix would also install all of the codecs it requires to decode the formats it claims to be able decode. I've tried replacing totem-gstreamer with totem-xine and adding libxine1-plugins; when launching the stream in Totem I get: “Totem could not play 'rtsp://rmlive-acl.bbc.co.uk/bbc-rbs/rmlive-acl/farm/live24/news/news24_bb.rm?BBC-UID=44160878f377ebafeb19c8cfa020b2bbbbb3620130801174b4bf3012ecb8482b&SSO2-UID='. A problem occurred while loading a library or a decoder (cook.so).” -- [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.kubuntu.org/UKTeam/
