RealPlayer has presentation features. It can also stream live video and
audio, and combine all those into a Real presentation.

Now I have HelixPlayer on my computer, it is the next generation of the
Realplayer and RealOnePlayer. You can get the linux version from a
HelixPlayer community web site at:

(Page down a couple of times after you go to the page)
http://forms.helixcommunity.org/helixdnaclient/

or you can get Unix version of Real from Germany or Austria.

For creating presentations you only need a text editor and use the SMIL
format. There are some free tools on realnetwoks site; check for something
like SDK and then UNIX tools.

I think SMIL works on RealPlayer for UNIX and not HelixDNA

You can also download the FREE version of HelixProducer to create media
from :
