What is a .RUM file?
The .RUM file extension is used for a Bink Video Subtitle File. This is a small file that has details about the subtitles for video frames in Bink video files, which have the .BIK extension. These .RUM files are usually found together with a .BIK video file. They are often used in video games that have video clips made with Bink video technology. To use these files, you don't open them directly like you would with a document or an image. Instead, they are used by the game or program that plays the Bink video. The subtitles contained in the .RUM file are displayed during the video playback in the game or software that supports Bink videos.
If you need to work with or view the contents of a .RUM file, you can use specific programs designed for Bink videos. Two examples of such programs are RAD Game Tools RAD Video Tools and RAD Game Tools Bink Video Player. These tools can handle .RUM files properly, ensuring that the subtitles are correctly shown with the corresponding Bink video clips.
In summary, .RUM files are important for displaying subtitles in Bink video clips, especially in video games. They are not meant to be opened by the user directly but are instead managed by specialized software that knows how to use them with the Bink video files.
