Windows Process Description:

The rare3260.dll file is a RealAudio Renderer Plug-in for the RealMedia application. This DLL can interpret the stream of RealSystem's packets made by the RealAudio, which is the file format plug-in. By utilizing the rare3260.dll module, RealMedia can playback RealAudio wherever it is coming from: a local file, streamed from the RealServer or simulated streamed from HTTP. Also, content tools that require the reassembly of RealSystem streams can also utilize the DLL rare3260.dll file.

The rare3260.dll file works by taking the RealSystem packet stream, and decoding and sending audio data to the RealMedia's audio services interface. The rare3260.dll module can also direct the web browser on RealMedia to exhibit hyperlinks at particular instances in the stream, which is also called hypernavigation.

Characteristically, renderer, or rendering, plug-ins such as the rare3260.dll module, implements a host of interfaces for its operations. These interfaces are the following: IRMAplugin, IRMARenderer, IRMASiteUser, IRMASiteUserSupplier, IRMAPacketHookHelper, IRMASite2, and the IRMAVideoSurface.

Almost all plug-ins, if not all, implements the IRMAPlugin interface that a client utilizes to determine the characteristics of a plug-in. On the other hand, it is recommended that all rendering/ renderer plug-ins must implement the IRMARenderer interface because it is responsible for packet and header protection and information regarding the status of the stream. Display renderers usually implement the IRMASiteUser. The client uses this interface to connect the renderer with a site component and then notify it of events.

The IRMASiteUserSupplier is utilized to obtain instances of an object that uses sites. Either the client of the renderer plug-in can employ it. The IRMAPacketHookHelper is the one that gives instructions to plug-ins for sending packets utilized for recording presentations on the client PC. For obtaining a reference to the client's video surface, the renderer uses the IRMASite2 that was implemented by the client. Lastly, the IRMAVideoSurface, which is implemented by the client core and is used by the renderer plug-in to draw on the display of the client. It also offers methods used for image rendering that are device dependent.
