How to install RealPlayer10.0 in Linux

Realplayer is a good video and audio player that supports multiple common video and audio formats, especially the most popular real formats. Taking Fedora as an example, I will talk about the problems and experiences I encountered when installing realplayer in Linux. When the fedora Desktop component is installed by default, although it has installed software such as Rhythmbox and movie player, however, the system does not provide the playing function for commonly used shadow videos (without corresponding format extensions), such as MPG, RM, and RMVB.

Realplayer is a good video and audio player that supports multiple common video and audio formats, especially the most popular real formats.

Taking Fedora as an example, I will talk about the problems and experiences I encountered when installing realplayer in Linux.

When the fedora Desktop component is installed by default, although it has installed software such as Rhythmbox and movie player, however, the system does not provide the playing function for commonly used video shadows (no corresponding format plug-ins), such as MPG, RM, RMVB .... Therefore, I chose to install realplayer again and use it as the default player for most media.

1. download the latest Linux realplayer version (address) and RealPlayer10GOLD. bin from the realplayer official website and save them to the user directory (for example,/root)

2. Use the terminal to enter the user directory, switch the cd command to the directory, and use the ls command to list the folder content

3. Add the executable properties of the RealPlayer10GOLD. binfile. Right-click the file in the file browser and choose Properties/permissions from the options of program execution files.

Or run the command chmod + x RealPlayer10GOLD. bin in the RealPlayer10GOLD. bin directory.

{The command must be in the file storage directory of realplayer. Otherwise, the system will prompt that the file cannot be found !}

4. Execute./RealPlayer10GOLD. bin {/There is a point above}

The error while loading shared libraries: libstdc ++. so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory prompt may appear during installation because libstdc ++ library is not installed.

5. Install libstdc ++ Library

Use yumex to find and install the libstdc ++ library, or directly enter yum install libstdc ++ in the terminal. so.5 OK, yum will automatically search for include libstdc ++. so.5 library file, download and install

6. The installation after RealPlayer10GOLD. bin is executed is silly. It is similar to the installation in WINDOWS. You can install REALPLAYER by default as prompted. Now you can try playing RMVB and RM files again.

7. Allow FIREFOX to support REAL stream playback on webpages

Copy the nphelix. so file under ../RealPlayer/mozilla to the ../firefox-x.x.x.x/plugins folder under the FIREFOX installation directory, such as/usr/lib/firefox-2.0.0.3/plugins

So far, the installation of realplayer has been completed.
