TRPlayer

[Tony Baechler]

Well, Helix is the open source version of RealPlayer if you want to give it 
a try.  It's very rudimentary and I don't like it.  MPlayer does show the 
track info, so I'm not sure what you mean.  Just use the Speakup review 
keys.  It helps a lot to pass the -quiet switch.  You can also use ffmpeg to 
convert the RealMedia to a different format.  RealPlayer itself is dead, at 
least on Linux, so it would be pointless and probably impossible to rewrite 
TRPlayer even if someone wanted to.
