Does anybody use realaudio with suse and was it hard to set up?
I just got the RealPlayer 5 audio/video player and encoder for Linux. I got it from RealAudios site as a tgz.
I wouldn't say it was hard, but it isn't as easy as the win95 install.
You have to set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH in your .bashrc or else it will give error messages. And I still can't get it to launch automatically from Netscape. It always wants to save to disk. This is OK though, since I usually get them to play better off the hard drive.
I think there is a small problem in the way the readme describes the installation as a plug in. It worked for me in that way. When I started netscape there was an entry for RealAudio in the application(where you enter the helper applications). Description: RealAudio MIMEType: audio/x-pn-realaudio Suffixs: ra,ram Application: rvplayer That worked for me. I couldn't get it working with the way how it was described in the Readme. I had exactly the same problem that you have. I hope it helps and you can understand my english.
