Voyager and online streaming with Real Player fix

some people could not stream online radio/music stations with real player. I didn't realize this until a user informed me that when he selects the segment links at cartalk.com, real player doesn't launch at all. Voyager looks for realplay in /nto/photon/bin and the location of realplay is in /usr/real/bin so what you have to do is create a link to /nto/photon/bin or point voyager to look in the right place in preference:
ln -s /usr/real/bin/realplay /nto/photon/bin/realplay
chmod a+x /nto/photon/bin/realplay

This will fix the real player problem and many online radio stations work with realplay. If their real player links don't work, try their wimamp links (this will launch phplay).

Another piece of helpful information about Voyager is that Audrey supports only 256 colors on alot of websites. cartalk.com is one of them. if you use 12bit color the website would stall and start launching more windows. Voyager is dead until you slay voyager.server and restart it. That's why they set the original Browser to only 256 colors. If you run voyager in 12bit color, some websites would not load completely or load with missing content (missing pictures,etc).

I hope this will help some people who can not get realplayer to stream.

When you download RealPlayer from my Audrey Repository and follow the easy directions you won't have any of these problems. I renamed RealPayer to kojak-realplayer and that solves it all. You can do that with any image as long as you follow the other directions too.
I don't have the problems with voyager either, never heard of.

I found the problem. If you are using my ultimate image you must do the following to fix voyager.

1. rm StartVoyager* in /kojak
2. mv voyager.server vserver
3. edit /config/rm-apps and change StartVoyager to vserver

this will fix homepages stalling.

Infinity,

Thanks! Now I can goto sites like weather.com

However, I get Javascript errors. Is there a way to fix these errors?

sorry my last method solved the stalling issue but it produced java script errors on some sites..follow this fix after doing my last fix to get rid of the java script errors:

1. create a startvserver script in /kojak
2.ln -s /nto/bin/execv startvserver
3.vi startvserver.sh to look like this:
vserver -x
4.chmod +x startvserver*
5. ln -s vserver voyager.server
6. chmod +x voyager.server
7. edit /config/rm-apps and change the vserver line to startvserver
This will solve all voyager java script and stalling problems.
i will the file at audrey hacking updated soon to include all the little fixes.

i missed a step so here it is again:

1. create a startvserver script in /kojak
2.ln -s /nto/bin/execv startvserver
3.vi startvserver.sh to look like this:
vserver -x
4.chmod +x startvserver*
5. ln -s vserver voyager.server
6. chmod +x voyager.server
7.add this line as the first line to /kojak/Browser.sh
slay vserver
8. edit /config/rm-apps and change the vserver line to startvserver

as a precaution you can remove all voyager items from shelf because shelf allows you to launch more than more instance of voyager and it sometimes will cause voyager to stall. launch voyager with the hardware button is totally safe because it won't allow more than one instance of voyager, if you need another voyager window select open new window under the voyager file menu. This is not that same as launch two instances from shelf.
