Thank you for such a quick response! I've just tested the method outlined above, and it works just fine.
Additionally, for anyone who might be interested in using this method with Speek's Batchenc frontend, simply copy the entire contents (all files and subfolders, as they are shown) from the extracted "producer" directory to wherever your the Batchenc frontend is located. Copy "ap.rpad" (as Karl described it, above) to the "audiences" sub-directory. Conversion can then be invoked through Batchenc with this line:producer.exe -i <infile> -o <outfile.rm> -ad ap.rpad -lc e,d
Still no luck in getting this to a format iTunes/iPod will accept... but it's a start!
dtdrive seems to be finding the DLLs, since I can successfully transmux an AAC-RM to M4A using dtdrive file.rm -W file.m4a. But when an ACELP-RM is used as input with the same line, the following is displayed:*******************************************************************************
