Further, and maybe veering OT, I know that other players (e.g. Kaffeine)
can utilise the codecs, but it's a real fiddle to acquire the relevant
URL to hand to them from e.g. the BBC 'listen again' pages. Unless
anyone knows something I don't?

This is what mplayer uses to play this stream:

==========================================================================
Forced audio codec: mad
Opening audio decoder: [ffmpeg] FFmpeg/libavcodec audio decoders
AUDIO: 44100 Hz, 2 ch, s16le, 64.1 kbit/4.54% (ratio: 8010->176400)
Selected audio codec: [ffcook] afm: ffmpeg (FFmpeg COOK audio decoder)
==========================================================================

ffmpeg is not illegal anywhere (AFAIK). No UnRealPlayer codec needed.


I stand corrected! Good to see that there _is_ a way round this.

Is this the page in question?
http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/progs/listenagain.shtml
I clicked just randomly some links there with Firefox/VLC plugin.

They played just fine :)
