Is there a VLC Plugin to play RV40?

Where can I find a plugin for VLC to play RV40?

RV40 is the Real Media Video 4.0 codec. VLC can't play it - I'm wondering if there is a plugin available for VLC to let it play it without having to download realplayer.

http://www.videolan.org/vlc/features.html, after clicking the "Video Formats" tab, has a "Real Video 3/4" line. Looks like maybe not for Linux, but otherwise ...

Don't know about VLC, but you might have better luck with WMP+ffwdshow (XP) or mplayer.
