Description m.misamore 2009-04-02 23:19:56 UTC
I'm trying to play some realmedia files that I downloaded (they contain audio only) but mplayer gives the error below. Seems to work fine on realmedia using the Cook codec, but fails otherwise. I get can the streams across RTSP successfully so that doesn't appear to be the problem. win32codecs are installed, and the "real" use flag is enabled as far as I can tell.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. mplayer -cache 32 rtsp://media.cbc.ca/cbc.ca/ideas/media/massey/2005massey.rm

Actual Results:  
$ mplayer -cache 32 rtsp://media.cbc.ca/cbc.ca/ideas/media/massey/2005massey.rm

It should play the stream successfully.

I have installed media-video/realplayer 11.0.1.1056-r2 and media-libs/realcodecs 11.0.1.1056-r1 followed by emerging mplayer again, but the problem above still occurs.

win32codecs won't do a thing on a 64-bit machine.

Try installing amd64codecs.  If it doesn't work with that, you're pretty much outta luck.
