  I have some videos, RMVB and RM format which can only be played on real player.
  but because I already have quicktime so I dont wanna get real player.
  is there anyway to convert these videos into either WMA format or the format for quicktime?

  You just chose two formats that just simply don't want to go together.

  I don't have the conversion tools for you, but here's a link to download a mega codec pack which will allow you to watch quicktime, real and all the other movies on Media Player Classic. Try it

  Good Luck.
