Ironfighter Posted August 29, 2005 Report Share Posted August 29, 2005 I like to listen the Video/Audio clips on the BBC sports pages. For this I need Real Player so I have just installed it. When I mouse click on a link in Mozilla (1.7.8) the programme downloads the file and plays the video clip but with no sound. I have tested the system sound via the menu system>configuration>KDE>sound >sound system. When I click on the Test Sound tab I get the KDE start up sound. I can run Realplayer from a terminal window but can only get video here also. When I type about:plugins in the address bar of Mozilla I get : Helix DNA Plugin: RealPlayer G2 Plug-In Compatible File name: nphelix.so Helix DNA Plugin: RealPlayer G2 Plug-In Compatible version 0.4.0.552 built with gcc 3.2.0 on May 13 2005 MIME Type Description Suffixes Enabled audio/x-pn-realaudio-plugin RealPlayer Plugin Metafile rpm Yes If by some chance you get the notion I seem to know what I am doing it is an illusion. I am new to linux and have just followed some tips from Google. If anyone can help me get this going I would really appreciate it. PS I can play Audio CDś - I just downloaded and installed Kscd using RPMdrake. I am really staring to enjoy linux since I installed Mandrake.

devries Posted August 29, 2005 Report Share Posted August 29, 2005 Probably a mixing problem. In the kde control center, sound, soundsystem, check 'automatic stop' in 1 sec. that way arts doesn't keep the soundcard occupied. (or run the browser, realplayer through arts) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ironfighter Posted August 30, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2005 Thanks for your response. I already had the sound system set as you suggested so this doesn appear to be the problem. As for your second option could you tell me how to do this please. Probably a mixing problem. In the kde control center, sound, soundsystem, check 'automatic stop' in 1 sec. that way arts doesn't keep the soundcard occupied.

Ironfighter Posted August 30, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2005 Open a console and type: artsdsp <browsername> (or: artsdsp realplay <name of file, link url adress etcetc > <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Thanks again : I tried your suggestions with no luck. Both commands opened up mozilla then Realplayer. Here is a sample of what I did at the terminal window - is the warning a clue as to what is wrong? [laurie@localhost laurie]$ artsdsp realplay http://www.mymotivator.com/_realmedia/testfile.ram Warning: LD_PRELOAD="/lib/libdl.so.2" [laurie@localhost laurie Real Player opened in a new window and then the sound file. The bar was moving from left to right but there was no further sound. I have noticed a very slight ¨beep¨ prior to the buffereing process commencing. Love your penguins! WIsh I could get them chirping here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devries Posted August 30, 2005 Report Share Posted August 30, 2005 No it's just a warning not a clue :). Could be a codec problem. Most of the streams on that site are a few years old. As a work around I tested some of the free streams with mplayer and it works fine (open a console and type: mplayer -ao arts -playlist <url (for example http://www.mymotivator.com/_realmedia/testfile.ram) > Make sure you've installed all the codecs (they are at plf) and associate .ram files with the 'mplayer -ao arts -playlist' command in your browser (or just copy/past the links in a console).

devries Posted September 3, 2005 Report Share Posted September 3, 2005 No a typo. :D It's: artsdsp realplay There is a difference between a plugin and codecs. These are not the same things. You need to install the codec packages from PLF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ironfighter Posted September 5, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2005 Thank you Well I have installed all the codecs from PLF except I couldn´t find Mplayer codecs and urpmi wouldn´t let me install the helixplayer-helix- codecs. Here is the result of urpmq - The following packages contain codecs: helixplayer-helix-codecs helixplayer-real-codecs real-codecs win32-codecs xanim-codecs I installed the bottom 4 (because I always do things back to front :D ) then - urpmi helixplayer-helix-codecs The following packages have to be removed for others to be upgraded: helixplayer-real-codecs-1.0.1.436-1plf.i586 (due to conflicts with helixplayer-helix-codecs) (y/N) So I said N Still got video but no sound. Do you think I could have installed Real Player twice in two different locations? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devries Posted September 6, 2005 Report Share Posted September 6, 2005 Thanks for the pm :) Let's forget about realplayer for now and use mplayer. It looks like you have all the codecs installed so it should work. Go to the mymotivator site and select the stream you want to listen to. When you get the page with the big play button, rightclick the button and choose 'copy links address' (or something like that). Now open a console and type: mplayer -dumpstream -playlist <paste the link address here (just rightclick and choose 'paste'> This command will download the stream to your /home/<your name> folder and safe it to a file called 'stream.dump'. Now in a console, cd to /home/<your name> and type: mplayer stream.dump You should here sound now. If not try: mplayer -ao arts stream.dump If still not post the mplayer output. Good luck :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ironfighter Posted September 6, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2005 Thanks for your replies. Still no Joy - perhaps I don have all the necessary codecs installed?

Read the RealAudio section of the DOCS!........ It seems the codecs still aren't installed. Download from here: http://www4.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/releases/...0050412.tar.bz2 And copy them (extract from the tar) to: /usr/lib/win32 If you don't have a /usr/lib/win32 folder create one. As you can see the errors mention the missing files by name (****.so and ****.dll). After you've copied the codecs check if these files are there. :) Good luck.

Ironfighter Posted September 10, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2005 I think I have succeeded in downloading the codes. I have them in the following directories: Usr/Lib/Win32, Usr/Local/Lib/RealPlayer9/Codecs, Usr/Lib/Real, Usr/LOcal/Lib/Codecs. (just making sure) :D However still no luck - just one question - Ihave Real Player Version 10 installed , why is the terminal message referring to Real Player 9?
