Cannot open *.ram files

Post by XE1UFO »

Dear Friends,

I have twenty old media files (*.ram). They are supposed to be audio sermons. I cannot open any of them with anything. I have tried the usual:
--RealPlayer
--Helix
--Audacious
--Audacity
--Banshee
--AlsaPlayer
--VLC

...to name a few, and a half dozen more. Any ideas? Their icons show "Real Media File".
:(
Thanks in advance!

Dr. Steve, central old Mexico

You can install a browser (realplayer) plugin to handle the .ram (ra) files..

Gnome-mplayer seems to play the few of these that I have quite fine.
If you accept - and I do - that freedom of speech is important, then you are going to have to defend the indefensible. That means you are going to be defending the right of people to read, or to write, or to say, what you don't say or like or want said.
