[MPlayer-users] Mplayer won't play Real Audio (e.g. Car Talk).

[Adam Funk]

I'm trying to use mplayer to listen to the Car Talk radio show 
(http://www.cartalk.com/) but it seems unable to find the library.  I'm 
using the mplayer-k6 Debian package (from 
ftp://ftp.nerim.net/debian-marillat/).  Mplayer ends as follows.

/etc/mplayer/codecs.conf contains the following lines

audiocodec racook
  info "RealAudio COOK"
  status working
  format 0x6B6F6F63 ; "cook"
  driver realaud
  dll "cook.so.6.0"

The library file is present at /usr/lib/win32/cook.so.6.0.
Other users on the debian-users list report not having this problem.  Any 
suggestions?
