rtsp.protocol
[Protocol]
exec=realplay %u
protocol=rtsp
input=none
output=none
helper=true
listing=
reading=false
writing=false
makedir=false
deleting=false
Icon=realplayer

That sounds strange, it's an EMBED object here. No way it should spawn a
realplay process, but honor the embedded viewer settings for
audio/x-pn-realaudio imo.
