Problems with trplayer.

[Janina Sajka]

I can't give you a specific URL to the Real SDK. I would expect you could work your way to it via their web pages, though the accessibility of Real's pages may be a problem.

But, the reason I responded is to suggest you try using mplayer to play Real streams.
