I have RealPlayer8 installed, but I can't seem to get it to act as a plugin for Mozilla. I can manually run rp8 and watch realplayer files/etc, but some sites ( some new IBM Linux videos - http://www-1.ibm.com/servers/eserver/linux/fun/# ) seem to require the plugin functionality.
Anyone know how I can get the plugin installed into Mozilla? I copied the rpnp.so file into /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins, and that shows up in "about: plugins", but I still can't play that video clip.
Thanks!
In the RealPlayer8 window select "Help"-->"Mime Type/Plugin Install" and follow the directions there.
I did that, which was a repeat of part of the original installation of rp8. Made no difference.
I also have the "mozplugger" app installed. Dunno if it is needed or not, since I don't use RealPlayer all that much. I can get RealPlayer to come up on the above site OK here.
Installed that, which made no difference. Now when I click on "about: plugins" I see a new group "MozPlugger 1.3.0" that has a lot of different "helper applications", but Real is not mentioned among them.
btw, the following is in /etc/mozpluggerrc:
