I never gotten it to work either, a few of the codecs do -- I think the win32 only ones, but not the Unix ones from linux-realplayer. I'm sure mplayer/xine being natively compiled while the real codecs are mostly linux libraries via compat must be the problem. If someone wants to fix this, do look at what NetBSD does. They have a seperate real codecs package for it, I'm not sure what they do but their mplayer/xine do work with the rv1 to 4 codecs, and no errors about cook and all. Dan
