Re: converting ra files
The dbpoweramp rm decoder is the same one (DirectX) was used by Windows Media Player, so see if that is able to play the files.

Re: converting ra files
Which version of Real Alternative do you have?
-
Re: converting ra files
ive got version 6.4.9.1 of real alternative

Re: converting ra files
Are you sure as the latest version is 1.80?
Edit - that must be the Media Player Classic version you have installed.

Re: converting ra files
Real Alternative version will show in Add/Remove Programs. Also, again, just to make sure, you are able to play the files in Windows Media Player and NOT just in the Media Player classic, right?

Re: converting ra files
When directX (directshow) is not working it can be difficult to find out why, there is a program called graphedit which allows the graph to be built up manually, only then can you perhaps tell why something is not working, but it is quite technical.
