Convert .RPL to .MP4

Possible with limits

.RPL has several meanings and only some of them are video. One example is the Escape video format used by 1990s games such as Tomb Raider. Game replay files, for example from Toribash or BeamNG, contain no video.

How to convert .RPL to .MP4

1. Try the file in VLC. If it plays, convert it with VLC (Media → Convert/Save) or FFmpeg to MP4 with H.264.
2. If VLC cannot open it, it is probably a replay or data file for a game. Such replays can only be played inside the game; to get a video, record the screen while it plays.
3. Check the origin of the file to know which kind of .RPL it is.

What to expect

• Escape-coded video is old and low resolution; the MP4 will not look better than the source.
