This should not be causing me problems, but

I am trying to listen to a Realplayer internet radio feed and failing.

Which program should I use, is there a trick in copying & pasting realplayer links?

The link itself is (http://www.rte.ie/smiltest/lyric_new.smil).

You could try digging out the link to the stream from within the .smil -file. In this case it seemed to be rtsp://89.207.56.7/broadcast/lyric.rm. At least on the n800 it plays just fine.

Been there !
The Nokia Audio Player doesn't understand smil files but can play real media format.
And RTE only provides smil files !
So you only solution is indeed to digg out the "real" stream url you can then play it !

Got it. Thanks both for the .rm address, and the extraction hint. I replicated this myself by saving the .smil file, and opening the .smil in Openoffice Writer, and there it was!

thanks
