I need to convert mpg and mp3 files to rm format. I see hints that this possible
through ffmpeg. But when I try to convert i get files that doesn't contain any
audio or video. Just silence when played on real player.

Can anyone tell me how to convert to rm? I think i may need to download some
codecs and recompile ffmpeg again. If so I need to know which codecs to download
and where....

This is my current ffmpeg configuration:
 configuration:  --prefix=/opt/ffmpeg/0.4.9_enh-1 --enable-mp3lame --enable-faac
--enable-amr_nb --enable-amr_nb-fixed --enable-amr_wb --enable-amr_if2
--extra-cflags=-I/usr/local/include --extra-ldflags=-L/usr/local/lib

The box I'm using is a pentium-4 2.8 gHz running redhat 8

When I try to convert a mp3 file to rm this is what I get:
