Mac users, here is a CSPAN audio Launcher.
Copy this script, then go to your Application folder to "appleScript." Open that and then open the editor. Paste this script into the window, then run it to make sure it works. If it works, then save it as an application. give it a name of your choice. I called it RealCSPAN. It will do just the audio feed.

tell application "RealOne Player"
run
GetURL "http://play.rbn.com/?url=cspan/g2cspan/live/cspan1db.rm&proto=rtsp "
end tell




---Here are more feeds you can put in place of the URL in the original script.
Some are video launchers.

http://play.rbn.com/?url=cspan/g2cspan/live/cspan1-g2.rm&proto=rtsp

http://play.rbn.com/?url=cspan/g2cspan/live/cspan2db.rm&proto=rtsp

http://play.rbn.com/?url=cspan/g2cspan/live/cspan2-g2.rm&proto=rtsp

http://play.rbn.com/?url=cspan/g2cspan/live/cspan3db.rm&proto=rtsp

http://play.rbn.com/?url=cspan/g2cspan/live/cspan3-g2.rm&proto=rtsp

You can then make scripts for each stream, put them in a folder so they will not be scattered all over the place.

This is the same script that is used for Air America
It's URL is:
http://play.rbn.com/?url=airam/airam/live/live.rm&proto=rtsp

A person who knows PERL, Python, or other scripting languages could knock out a quick script that will do the same thing and will work across platforms.

If you do, post the script.
