yes, but pnm is patented, protected crypted protocol...

anyway i can put together some code which works as plugin for realplayer
and dumps the video/audio stream down to a special avi file, supported by
mplayer/mencoder
(catch the decrypted audio/video data when the player sends it to the codecs
- we know how the codecs work for now :))

another possible way is using the rp8 plugin to connect and stream rm files
