Is there a program -other- than Real Player that'll let me play movies encoded as .rm files? I -hate- Real Player and yet I've jus spent a couple of weeks downloading... well, a lot of something, a very huge collection of movie files, all encoded in .rm format.
I tried the Media Player Classic I have, and also VLC Player (which can usually handle anything you throw at it) and both only play the audio track.
I believe there is a plugin for Winamp that lets you do this, but it takes some configuring... there are also some other free alternatives in terms of music players which can play RM files.
S... such as?
Yep, just need a codec to interpret it, then something that'll open the file-type (like Media Player Classic).. similar to motivations behind Quicktime Alternative, there's a Real Alternative you can download.. say... here-ish (http://www.free-codecs.com/download/Real_Alternative.htm).
Thanks!
Windows Media Player will also play RealPlayer files, if you download "Real Alternative"

Same link, but valid point. I lean towards Media Player Classic as it tends to support more of the alternative plug-ins like those implemented by QT alternative, RM alternative and Matroska splitters. Of course, I'm biased against MS's bloated and DRM-heavy updated player, so to each their own.
