Quick time plugin and Real Player plugin

Hi all,
This is how I installed quick time and real player plugins into kmeleon.

Quick Time.
Exit kmeleon.Install quick time player from apple.com\quicktime\. Copy the files under C:\Program Files\Quicktime\plugins\ to C:\Program Files\k-meleon\plugins\.
To testconfused smileytart kmeleon go to http://www.uriah.com/apple-qt/1984.html and you should see apples 1984 ad.

Real Player
Install real player on your netscape(6 or greater). Copy files nppl3260.dll and nppl3260.xpt from C:\Program Files\Netscape\Netscape 6\components to C:\Program Files\k-meleon\components.
To testconfused smileytart kmeleon go to http://www.union.edu/RESOURCES/curriculum/tips/smil/embed.shtml. This should start a presentation from union college .

If some one can hack it , and find out how to mislead a plugin installer and let it install all the necessary files in k-meleon directory instead of netscape directories then it will make plugin installation automatic.

enjoy

Am i just really lucky?! Quicktime, flash, shockwave, embedded realaudio/video, etc. have worked since the moment i installed k-meleon; I never had to move any files around. The only file in my k-meleon/plugins folder is npnul32.dll, which is installed with the browser as far as i can tell. Here's what doesn't work: streaming audio where realplayer has to be launched seperately (as opposed to being embedded). For example, go to: http://www.posterchildren.com/website/radiozero.html
Click on "stream" for any of the segments.
K-meleon tries to download the file instead of launching realplayer. Does your method solve ths problem?

sesh:

The Real Player bit worked for me, but not the QT. First the page was unavailable. So I went to uriah.com. I located the files and when I clicked on it was asked to go to the Netscape plugins page and get the plugin. I have NS 6.2, apart from IE 6 and K-Meleon. I find K-Meleon the fastest of the lot.

Help??
Thanx
Arun
