1. I tested the sample realmedia clips from
http://www.bigmoviezone.com/filmsearch/clips/
The one I tested was australia4300.rm and both video and sound worked just
fine. This was after I copied all realplayer dlls into
<mplayer_root>/lib/real/, as per instructions from mplayer error message.
I have a suggestion about this dll copying. How about making it
consistent with the way win32 and xanim dlls are treated ?
Basically, for win32, default search path is /usr/lib/win32, which is
overridden by --with-win32libdir=dir.
Likewise, for xanim, default search path includes /usr/lib/xanim/mods, but
is overridden by --with-xanimlibdir=dir.
Similarly, for realplayer8, default search path could be
/usr/lib/RealPlayer8/Codecs, which may be overridden by
--with-realplayer8libdir=dir.
2. Also, currently, I get configure messages such as:
Checking for Win32 DLL support ... yes (using /home/ndeb/opt/win32lib/)
Checking for DirectShow ... yes
Checking for XAnim DLL ... yes (using /usr/lib/xanim/mods)
Checking for RealPlayer8 DLL ... yes
It will be nice if things are more consistent and the message for
RealPlayer8 is like this:
Checking for RealPlayer8 DLL ... yes (using /usr/lib/RealPlayer8/Codecs)
But this change will make sense only if the suggestion in 1. is
implemented.
thanks
