Hello All!

Just a quick question, i was wondering what files you have to make to open the radio stream in certain programs.

I have .pls for iTunes/Winamp, i have asx for WMP, how can i get them to open in Quicktime and RealPlayer?

Many Thanks!

I think realplayer uses .ram/.rpm, not sure about Quicktime.

Ive got something very similar for my asx file, but what do i put in to the ram file for RealPlayer? Also +rep for your kind help :)

[Fehm]

its .rpm isnt it?

[Recursion]

Isn't it .ram?

.ram files link to .rm files which are used by RealMedia (RealPlayer)

.rm is the RealMedia streaming media.
