Using RealAudio with HTML


You need to download the RealAudio Player 3.0 to try out streaming sound. To create the compressed sound files you need RealAudio Encoder

In this example a stub file is set up on the web server using the suffix .ram, as in mytune.ram. That file is simply a text containing only the line

http://www.my.server.address/subdirectory/mytune.ra

The stub file gets passed to your RealAudio Player which then connects to the real sound file and begins the streaming process

Your link to the sound is then simply:

<a href="mytune.ram">My Tune</a>
