[Bones]

Hi all, i am using win xp pro. I race alot on MCOnline. I save the replay, then when i go offline to watch the replay, it says it is a file formatt thar can't be reconized. The file is a rpm. I thought u must have Realplayer to play, but even it doesn't reconize the format. does anybody know anything about this. Our club wanted to videos to produce on our website that we a trying to get going. Any help would great help. Thanks

Hi Bones,

I've never heard of that file extension before. In Realplayer, the closest extensions to that, that I can find anyway, are RM and RMP (not RPM). I did some searching on google and found something that uses an RPM format though. The one I found says it is an archive format used under the Redhat OS. Stands for Redhat Package Manager. I don't know if this is the one you are getting or not but its the only one I found.

this is what i just found ... Your .RAM or .RPM file was created in Microsoft Word or Word Pad


Creating a RealAudio Metafile, a .RAM or .RPM file, using a formatting text editor such as Microsoft Word or WordPad, can result in the .RAM or .RPM file becoming corrupt. The reason this occurs is that these complex text editors can save unseen control characters relating to formatting when the file is saved. These unseen characters make the file unrecognizable to the RealAudio Server.

This problem can be corrected by recreating the Metafile in a simple text editor such as Microsoft Notepad.

It doesn't ask what kind of exten to save it as or maybe can I change that? Thanks Larry
