Hmmm, I went back to your step-by-step instructions and had a closer
look:

: 2) Edit /etc/pluggerrc and add the "lsc" extension to the 
: realaudio entry thus:
:
: audio/x-pn-realaudio: ra,rm,ram,lsc : Realaudio-plugin
: resource locator
:      exits nokill: realplay "$file"

This configures "plugger" as a plug-in (!) that provides support for
RealAudio/Video files (based on MIME type and file name extensions.

However, in step 4 you seem to override that setting by configuring
RealOne player as a helper application. Why step 2 then?

Another question I have is, why didn't you support file extension
".ram" as well? Is that based on experience that maybe those
external stream locators work (only or better, respectively) in a
brower directly?
