Hey Greg,
Thanks so much for the response. Yes, what I'm really after is
embedding the functionality in my app, but as a stopgap the applescript
will work. I'll check out the CFM interface and also drop you guys a
line at email@hidden.
Thanks again,
Eric

Has anyone seen an elegant way to interface with either the OS X
RealPlayer or Windows Media Player (yes, I'd rather just use
Quicktime, but this app needs support for streaming from the windows

AppleScript?
Some basic AppleScript should work in the stand-alone applications;
both applications should respond at least to OpenDocuments and GetURL,
and you can use application-specific events listed in their
dictionaries and GUI scripting
<http://www.apple.com/applescript/GUI/>. If you want to embed
playback inside your app, you'll need to support the old Netscape CFM
plug-in interface like web browsers do
<http://developer.apple.com/technotes/tn/tn2020.html>. The RealOne
Player developers are interested in requests for future versions; if
you want Cocoa view embedding support, drop the team a note at
email@hidden.
