Realplayer on Ubuntu GutsyRealplayer is not available on the repositories for Ubuntu 7.10 Gutsy. Alternatively, do the following:
wget -c http://www.debian-multimedia.org/pool/main/r/realplay/realplayer_10.0.9-0.1_i386.deb sudo dpkg -i realplayer_10.0.9-0.1_i386.deb
Thanks for keith65 giving the tip.
OK, it worked for downloading and playing songs at Prairie Home Companion, but didn't for playing the news stream at NHK
I can play the wmv streaming at NHK News, without sound, on Ubuntu... Wish I had a chance to say to NHK, hey use a freely available, open codecs on streaming as a publicly funded organization
