I think that even the latest version of the rlm, is not always working, 
depending on the checkboxes you choose when creating the embed code, 
i.e. if you change the defaults it doesn't always work, because it adds 
an optional parameter which confuses the code.

But... this is by heart, and I didn't check the very latest .rlm
