I doubt I'll be able to check with those videos, as I have lots of
restrictions on the net, so suggesting alternative players.  Helix
player is the community Open Source player that uses the Real
Engine/codecs.  You can also try Kaffeine (KDE3's video player, which
uses xine as well as gstreamer backends).  Kaffeine has rarely failed
me, and that too when the file was buggy.  Running it in vlc/mplayer
and fixinf the index would do it for me most of the times.  Hope this
helps. :) Do post back whether it solved your problem or not.
