I found this reference to .ram files on http://www.princessleia.com/MPlayer.html
Sometimes you will want to watch realplayer files that are .ram; remember that a .ram can be viewed as a simple text file with the stream location of the actual .rm is in that file. mplayer will not play the .ram but it will play the .rm stream. (Apparently there is a patch out so that mplayer will play .ram but I have never used it).
but it's no help, I can rememeber that .ram files are text files just fine but then what do I do with it?
Also, do I need a plugin to get streaming video to work in Konqueror? What should I use (perhaps the mozilla plugin?)
you need realplayer (or compatable). You can use klik to get it.
I tried to install realplayer, it wouldn't compile (but not from klik). Will klik work with a HD install?
