    rpm -ql realplay will not install the file, that is only for queries..you need to use the -i option to install.
    Code:
    rpm -i filename

    can you post the full name of rpm file you install and file is install without error ?
    For playing various media file you can install vlc also .
    or try
    Code:
    rpm -qa | grep -i "file name"
