When you want to use Real Audio/Video from Ark Webs, you
should create a realaudio subdirectory: /var/www/html/realaudio,
and put all your audiofiles there.
Then your .ram file, a.k.a., metafile, will contain an address
with this format:
http://fulldomainname/realaudio/filename.rm
The "subdirectory" is a subdirectory of your domain-www
directory.
So for example:
http://musicforyou.com/realaudio/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.

Our server is for posting Real Files on your site, and
allowing them to be listened to by your sites visitors via a
Real Player.
IF YOU ARE planning on running a radio station, live
Church service or something of that nature, then you need to
go to
www.real.com and consult them about finding a server that
can facilitate this type of function.
Do you provide any
tools to create real video/audio content
with the purchase of the Real Server?

No, we do
not. You might want to try looking at this URL for free tools:

We offer this Free to our customers. Just make a directory
called /realaudio/ in your root directory and place your real
media files there. This will
allow you to post real audio/video files to be downloaded and
listened to by your sites visitors.
How do I use
REAL Audio/Video in my site? -
Top
Using Real Audio/Video on your account is very easy.
You should have a folder called: realaudio in your main web directory.
If not, just create one. So, if your domain name is
your.com , then your real folder will be your.com/realaudio..
This is where you will put your .rm (the actual real
audio/video file) and .ram (a text file that simply points to
the .rm file, this is also the file that you link to in your
website) files.
This is an example: You must have a .rm file. This is your
actual audio file. Name it firstaudio.rm right now. Now,
upload it in BINARY to your folder called realaudio. Next,
create a text file, and call it firstaudio.ram. Now, place the
following line of text in the text file: http://www.your.com/realaudio/firstaudio.rm
(Remember, the actual path must be your domain name in place
of your.com)
Now, upload this file in ASCII to your folder called realaudio. Go to your web page, where you are going to create
a link to the test file, and CREATE A HYPERLINK to:
http://your.com/realaudio/firstaudio.ram
(Again remember, the ACTUAL path must be your domain name in
place of your.com). Now save the page, and view it via the
net. CLICK on the link, and it should play the file. That's all.
This is an example of a file we have on one of our ministry
sites:
