SF can save .rm files but can't open them. Does anybody knows where is the plug-in for opening .rm files?

Real Media files are secure and cannot be opened by most applications. There is probably no legal way to open these files.

*As far as I know*, it is legal.

Yes, that will do it, but it is a realtime conversion. You have to playback the rm file to the "Total Recorder" wave driver in order to convert. The drawback is that it is realtime. So if you have 20 minutes of rm files, it will take you 20 minutes to capture them in order to convert.

NOTE: You could do the same thing with most multimedia sound cards - i.e. SoundBlaster - by routing the output to the input using the Windows mixer and Sound Forge.

There is an accelerate mode in Total Recorder that gives silent playback. It is very fast - dependant upon the parameters of your particular PC. There is also an option to make "gapless" recordings for those times when network congestion starts and stops the file from playing.
