Is anyone willing to help an idiot convert 38 .RAM files to .RM files? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I want to burn them to a CD in RealPlayer, but it won't burn .RAM files, I need them to be .RM files... If you have a converter or something that can convert these to .RM files, just leave your AIM name and see if you can help me out... I'd really appriciate it!

It's better just to convert the files to MP3. I used have a converter, but I have to see were I downloaded it at and I'll tell you when I find out.

This advice is gonna seem a little silly when you first read it, but have you tried simply renaming them manually [right click in windows, rename, change the .ram part to .rm]....Any program I've encountered that doesn't accept the RAM format is successfully fooled by this.

I've never understood why programs accept the RM format, but not RAM. I know there's probably a reason, but....eh

I put .rm at the end of the names, but it still doesn't take them!

You might have to enable the file extensions. go to My Document look under Tools then folder options click the view tab and uncheck hide file extensions for known types.
