I have a RealVideo server, and I want to use RealPlayer to open various content-types such as audio/x-pn-realaudio and text/vnd.rn-realtext

For some types, I get a drop-down list that says "realplay (default)", but it's not, it's Totem, which is crippled by RedHat so it won't play anything except, maybe, Ogg. I can select the real realplay by browsing, which works but is tedious - my .mailcap file has all these types listed as using realplay so that's what I'd expect to be used.

For one type, it launches Totem immediately, and I don't see that in the edit/preferences/applications list so I can fix it.

Now that I think about it, it's probably got the Totem plugin installed. I'm not sure how to modify that short of disabling it altogether

Thank you.

I found that the totem browser plugins have many content-types hardwired in, regardless of whether the corresponding codecs are installed. I can as you say disable the entire plugin, or it seems disable content-types individually using the plugin.disable_full_page_plugin_for_types config setting in "about:config" as per http://kb.mozillazine.org/Opening_files_using_plugins, e.g. plugin.disable_full_page_plugin_for_types;video/mpeg,video/x-ms-wmv

You can (re)move the Totem plugins if you do not want to use them.

You can see the installed plugins that are enabled on the about:plugins page.

You can set the plugin.expose_full_path pref to true on the about:config page to see the full path of plugins on the about:plugins page. It is best not to leave that pref set to true as it exposes that full path to web servers, so reset that pref to false after you are done with the about:plugins page.

See "Manually uninstalling a plugin":
