What did you try?  Nothing?  It helps tremendously if you describe
your failed experiments.

Have you _tried_ just doing

mplayer rtsp://real.cam.org/live/ckut.ra

?

May I suggest that you read some of MPlayer's extensive documentation,
there are quite a few examples and most of your questions should be
answered somewhere:

http://www.mplayerhq.hu/DOCS/HTML/en/index.html
http://www.mplayerhq.hu/DOCS/HTML/en/windows.html
http://www.mplayerhq.hu/DOCS/man/en/manpage.html

If you find the documentation lacking or not newbie-friendly enough,
I'm always happy to hear suggestions and constructive criticism.
