[MPlayer-users] Computer Freezes when watching Streaming RealVideo

[Robert Kennedy]

I am told that my problem is likely a mplyer problem not a mplayerplug-in 
problem.  It was suggested that I should make sure that I compile into 
mplayer live555.com support.

If there is something else that I need to do, please let me know.

Thanks.

Rob
