<P>It's recommended to download and install RealPlayer8 or RealONE, because
  <B>MPlayer</B> can use their libraries to decode files with RealVideo 2.0 or
  RealVideo 3.0 video! All you have to do is:</P>

<P>
  &nbsp;&nbsp;<CODE>ln -s /usr/local/RealPlayer8/Codecs $PREFIX/lib/real</CODE>
</P>

<P>NOTE: RealPlayer's installation path may differ from the above, please check
  it.</P>

<P>NOTE: RealPlayer libraries currently <B>can only be used with Linux or FreeBSD
  on the x86 platform</B>!</P>

<P>The <B>MPlayer</B> configure script should detect the RealPlayer libraries
  in all standard locations. If it does not, tell configure where to look with
  the <CODE>--with-reallibdir</CODE> switch.</P>

<P>It is also possible to just take the RealPlayer libraries from somewhere and
  put them in a suitable directory like <CODE>/usr/lib/real</CODE> or
  <CODE>$LIBDIR/real</CODE>.</P>

<P>NOTE: RealPlayer libraries currently <B>only work with Linux, FreeBSD,
  NetBSD and Cygwin on the x86 platform</B>!</P>
