Hi, I've followed the instruction from Doc and install alll the codec.
Been having trouble play rmvb format media (got video, no sound, and can't use seek to move fwd ot backward)...
here's the example:

mplayer Seoul.Raiders-Rv9.rmvb

I'm assuming maybe rv40 codec can't play the newest helix codec? thank you for your suggestions

Or, at least, some of it is.

I guess this warning from that site meant nothing to you huh??

p.s.: this rmvb file was download using bittorrent. so i didn't know if it harms the machine or what not, because i'm able to watch the movie when using xp (but i really perfer watch it using linux)

thank you

i am not sure what with ur mplayer, but i've got gxine having similar problem.
i had sound but no movie.

if you use codecs from realplayer10, though i'm unsure of why, it doesn't help this problem, but keep those codecs. what you need to find first is package include drv3.so.6.0 and drv4.so.6.0 in its codecs. you should try download realplayer7 / 8 / 9 cause they've got those codecs included.

if you do have the codecs drv3.so.6.0, drv4.so.6.0 etc. find codecs from realplayer10. and put them togther.

qtbb, thanks for ur insite, i found out the solution (using mplayer)

ok, codec rv.10 seems is not something mplayer can recongize.

what what i did was: i kept real codec 7,8,9 within mplayer codec (which locates at /usr/local/lib/codecs by default)

and i install realone (which is real player 10 in Unix)

p.s: real 10 codec --- cook.so, rv40.so doesn't seem to be recongize by mplayer's codec path

so when i have to watch realone format media, i just launch realplayer 10 for now.

now i'm able to watch realOne format media....

thank you for for suggestion
