Recently acquired a documentary in Real Media format (assume that's what .rm means).

My question is: does anyone know of a program or method that will convert a .rm file to .avi/divx? Would prefer to avoid Real, if possible. Any help would be appreciated. :unsure:

You might have to search/grovel for the software though.

Thank you Richardc2000 for your helpful information - exactly what I was looking for. Hopefully it's not difficult to locate said software, if so may grovel. ;)
