I'm using VLC (under Windows XP) and I would like to know how I can play .ram files
I don't want to install realplayer itself.

What is holding the developers back from supporting .ram file extensions?

Re: playing .ram (realplayer) files using VLC
Of course 
IMO I think it would benefit VLC greatly if it supports .ram. I remember VLC being tagged as a media player that can play anything and doesnt require any codec downloads. It has saved my butt plenty of times when i have a new media format im not sure about. It is my de-facto video player. I think they should focus development on supporting this (and any other major) media format. I dont need a new GUI that makes VLC look bloated, I need a one-in-all functional media player!! Who wants to download Real Media Player anyway???
That being said I appreciate the awesome work everyone has done developing this piece of software. I love 0.8.6 and cant wait for 1.0 (assuming a more bear bones GUI is available then) Keep up the good work.

Mostly, what is remaining as big formats are RealAudio and RealVideo (since 1.0 supports most of the new M2TS codecs)
