Subject: Re: booting a browser
Just at nitpick here - browsers and Realplayer are applications, and
applications are started not booted. Machines are booted. No biggie,
just wanted to be anal , uh, I mean, clear.
Now to your question:
Use the rmmerge.exe utility to convert a text file of events to an .RM
file, then merge this .RM with the Audio/Video file. More
specifically:
Create an events text file, RMEVENTS.TXT that contains a list of events.
Using the rmmerge.exe utility, rmmerge the text file to create an events
file, RMEVENTS.RM.
Then you use the rmmerge utilty again to merge the RMEVENTS.RM file with
your audio/video clip, AVCLIP.RM, to get the merged events/AV file,
called FINAL.RM
Then you link to the FINAL.RM file .
One event type is
00:00:00:01.50 URL http://www.webserver.domain/ blah blah
which opens the web browser at the specified time ( in this case at T=
1.5 second into the clip) and sends it to the specified URL. This is
well documented in the RealServer 5.0 docs, and I'm sure on the web
site.

Hello:
I've been to sites where clicking on a link not only boots the player to
play a realmedia file, but also boots the browser and goes to a
particular url. Is this accomplished in the ram file, a smil file, or
what? TIA.
