RM to OGG: Extract Audio from RM(RealMedia) Video to OGG(OGG Vorbis Audio) with River Past Audio Converter, RM2OGG converter, conversion
What is
RM?
A streaming technology developed by RealNetworks
for transmitting live video over the Internet. RealVideo
uses a variety of data compression techniques and works with both normal IP
connections as well as IP Multicast connections.
More information is available on RealNetwork
web site.
To convert RealMedia to other formats with River Past software, please
have Real Alternative installed.
If the RM file was encoded with AC-3 audio, you may also need to install
AC-3 Decoder Filter.
What is
OGG?
Ogg Vorbis (sometimes just called Vorbis)
is an open source patent-free audio compression format, developed as a replacement
for proprietary digital audio encoding formats, such as MP3,
VQF, and AAC.
Vorbis files (which have an .ogg extension) compress to a smaller size than
MP3 files, which reduces bandwidth and storage requirements. According to many
reports, Vorbis provides better sound quality than MP3.
To encode OGG Vorbis audio with River Past software, please have
either Torbias' OGG
DirectShow Filters or Radlight
Ogg Media Filters installed.
