real player & BBC Radio "listen again" facility

I'm obviously being really thick here.

 

If I go to BBC's Radio 2 page(s) and try to use the "listen again" facility, it goes to the "player page", but I get no audio.

 

I have realplayer installed (via my boxed set 2006 dvd) and I can hear realplayer content if it's via a downloaded file i.e. when I'm running realplayer standalone, but nothing from streaming sites.

 

If I check the "help", theres info about help for linux/unix users, but I'm not sure what to do from there. Theres stuff about linking things in /opt/, but if I look in /opt/ theres nothing there. I've tried linking from my /home to /usr/bin/realplayer but it just tells me that /usr/bin/realplayer exists.

 

Theres also some stuff about making sure a couple of files are present in the plugins facility, but I can't find out how or where that plugin facility/directory or whatever else it might be called is.

 

I'm using the "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.10) Gecko/20050921 Firefox/1.0.7" version of firefox from Mandriva.

 

Can anyone point me in the right direction please ?

 

regards

 

John
