  <LI><B>OR</B> download the codecs pack from our

    </LI>
  <LI>Use the <CODE>--with-xanimlibdir</CODE> option to tell configure where
    to find the XAnim codecs. By default, it looks for them at
    <CODE>/usr/local/lib/xanim/mods, /usr/lib/xanim/mods and /usr/lib/xanim</CODE>.
    Alternatively you can set the environment variable <I>XANIM_MOD_DIR</I> to
    the directory of the XAnim codecs.</LI>
  <LI>Rename/symlink the files, cutting out the architecture stuff, so they will
    have filenames like these: <CODE>vid_cvid.xa, vid_h263.xa, vid_iv50.xa</CODE>.</LI>

  MPlayer can use their libraries to decode files with RealVideo 2.0 -
  4.0 video. The MPlayer configure script should detect the
  RealPlayer libraries in the standard locations of a full installation. If it
  does not, tell configure where to look with the
  <CODE>--with-reallibdir</CODE> option.</P>

<P><B>Note:</B> RealPlayer libraries currently <B>only work with Linux, FreeBSD,
  NetBSD and Cygwin on the x86, Alpha and PowerPC (Linux/Alpha and Linux/PowerPC
  have been tested) platforms.</B></P>

<P><B>NOTE:</B> currently only 32bit Intel platforms are supported.</P>

<P>As a second chance you can download the codecs from 
  <a href="http://www.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/releases/codecs/">http://www.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/releases/codecs/</a>.
  After downloading the Real codecs package, extract it to the /usr/local/lib/codecs
  directory, or you can specify a unique path with the <CODE>--with-reallibdir</CODE> option.</P>
