[MPlayer-users] Mac RealAudio trouble

Hi.  I'm trying to use my Mac to rip RealAudio streams to MP3.
I am having problems.

Here's what I did:
1. I downloaded the RealAudio codec package for MacOSX, from:
    http://www.mplayerhq.hu/homepage/design7/codecs.html
    and installed it.

2. I compiled Mplayer (making the modifications recommended in:
http://itdp.fh-biergarten.de/~itdp/html/mplayer-users/2004-09/msg00636.html
    to allow it to compile).

3. I did
 	mplayer rtsp://<blah>.ra

4. Mplayer correctly downloaded the stream.

5. I got an "incompatible DLL" message, referring to my
    /usr/local/lib/codecs/cook.bundle

I'm using Mac OS X 10.3.9.

Google has nothing on this problem.  What should I do?
Thanks.
