Hi,
I have downloaded many videos from different websites by using downloading tools. Most of the video files are in .rar archive. As several websites required seeding after downloading. Seeding takes too much time and videos don’t run smoothly.
Can I play video from rar directly?
Is there a way to play video within RAR archives without extracting the archives first?
I need an open source tool.
How I can run video from rar directly?
Hello Danield,
To run a video from rar directly would be not be easy but I can give you step by step process on how to run video using an open source tool called 7-Zep. 7 zip is the best tool to decompress file whilst rar is an archive compression technology to shrink archive files.
Steps:
1. The first thing you need to do is to install the 7 zip in your computer.
2. Go to the first movie file that you have and right click on it, Select Extract here. You will then see the file is extracted. What does is breaking up into parts that make up the movies.
3. What you get are extensions such as .ror, ro3. Do click the file extension .rar. You may now watch the video in your normal video player.
Hope this works
