Bug Description
(Standalone) Realplayer 10 (package "realplay" from the Canonical repository) crashes on opening video streams from Deutsche Welle. The two videos I have tried play fine using the RealPlayer plugin in Firefox.
I was able to open a video from another source without any problem (http://
The videos that failed both come from links on http://
Here is what happens when I open one of the videos (Kultur.21) in a terminal:

The program 'realplay.bin' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)'.
(Details: serial 38 error_code 8 request_code 140 minor_code 13)
(Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)
mlind changed the source package from unknown to realplayer. This is incorrect. Realplayer is an Ubuntu package that helps you to install realplayer 8. Realplay, on the other hand, is a package from the repository of commercial packages at canonical.com. It installs Realplayer 10.
