You are right. I figured that out myself a little bit after i sent the
email.

The file pncrt.dll is only in the folders of the realproducer. So it was not
on my system before I installed the producer.
On the system with th RealOne Player, the pncrt.dll is in \windows\system,
too. But no plaback there, as it is a pre-MMX PI-166 with a extreme limited,
not hardwareaccelerated grafic card. The -vo directx crashes when it comes
to the point to load drv43260.dll :-(
I have no system/computer to check out whether it is enough just to copy
pncrt.dll to \windows\system or \codecs together with drv43260.dll to allow
playback of .rm files on the system. Can anybody try that?
With and without registering the dlls?

Some info from the computer with RealOne-Player installed on it.
These are the entries with drv43260.dll:
