Need to convert .rm files to .wav

Post by edweather » Sun Jun 28, 2009 2:24 pm

I have been downloading some audio files with my Real Player and they are coming with the .rm extension. I have been playing them with my Real Player and recording them with Audacity, editing them, and exporting them as .wav. This is becoming time consuming. Is there a free program that will convert the .rm to .wav? Your feedback is very much appreciated. Thanks. Ed.

You can use SUPER:

or Audacity 1.3.7 Beta if you add the optional FFmpeg library to your computer:

Gale, Thanks for the feedback. I tried the SUPER program. Unless I did something wrong, and if I'm not mistaken, SUPER supports .ra and not .rm. Ed

Converting some formats with Super can be a bit tricky as there are a lot of options, but Super should be able to handle both ra and rm files.

Steve....I'm not sure what you mean by 'tricky.' I used the SUPER file converting program and dragged the .rm file into it and the program wouldn't take it. If you've converted these files maybe you could give me a hint as to what to try next. Any help is much appreciated. Thanks.
