[MPlayer-cygwin] Re: mplayer

[Rohan Shah]

So can I use my cdrom with mplayer or not? If so, how can this be done? 
Also if I want to listen to a real audio stream for example 
rtsp://real.cam.org/live/ckut.ra how do i do this? I have included the 
real audio codecs in the specified directoy before configuring.

I appreciate all your help.
