Well, thanks much for that, you gave me hope, but I refuse to
indemnify Real Networks against illegitimate third-party claims, which
their contract seems to require.  Looks like the WWW will have no more
video for me, at least until I become poor enough to not care about
being sued.  I'm so fed up with indemnity requirements, I'm about
ready to return to the world of paper.  I wonder why so many others
are so willing to accept the risks that I've never seen the topic
mentioned by anyone.

Still tilting at windmills...
