 How can I use real audio / video?
Solution WE DO NOT have Real Audio server software running on our servers. However, you can stream Real Media files by following these instructions: You will need to create a .ram file that calls your real audio/video file. The .ram file is a text file with an absolute URL. This URL will need to be: http://yourdomain.com/filename.rm
Typically you'll create a realaudio file subdirectory under domain-www, and put all your audiofiles there. Then your .ram file, a.k.a., metafile, will contain an address with this format:
http://yourdomain.com/subdirectory/filename.rm
The "subdirectory" is a subdirectory of your domain-www directory. So for example:
http://yourdomain.com/musicfiles/music.rm
Notice: The above address goes in the .ram/metafile, not in your HTML code. Your HTML code calls the .ram/metafile. Then the .ram/metafile is used to call up the .rm/realmedia file. So for example, your HTML code would look something like this:
"Click here to listen to music."
