URLs should typically start with "rtsp://", "pnm://", or "http://" /tmp/plugtmp/1604-2-937661-4.ram ####################################################### It looks like RP expects an URL, but instead it gets a file name. Can plugger be configured to send the URL instead of downloading the file and feeding the file name to the player? Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.go to http://news.com.com/2009-1001-937851.html 2.click on one of the realmedia links 3. Actual Results: Invalid protocol specified in URL.

If i add back those two plugin files, but remove plugger.so, i get a page with the Real Player swallowed, but the player does not start.
The config file pluggerrc has a bug which is fixed now in next release. There is here a another bug in realplayer plugin, it does not play the stream! i cannot fix this bug in this case. Please ask realnetworks about new version.
