CatCat: ram file are just text files with apointer to the actual location of the .ra file

CatCat: but for some real media files, VLC and mplayer should work.

what wil convert the ra file ot mp3 then? (or flac or wav or whathave you)
2007-09-05 24810, 2007

CatCat: if mplayer can play the file, it can dump it to wav, but that's probably not very easy to do.

(mplayer is very flexible in what it can do, which makes reading the docs a rather daunting task :)

you'll need to open the .ram file and find he location (URL) of the .ra file. the real media player for mac will automatically open the audio/video. QuickTime can sometimes play real media with appropriate plug-in, depends on the source file indicated by the URL in the .am file

you can also download the helix player (open source real player) and see if it has any export options

even on a windows box, real audio conversion is a bit of a pain - too many different ra codecs, and none of em really conversion friendly
