The sdp file extension is associated with the presentation component of OpenOffice.org, the office suite that became Apache OpenOffice. StarOffice also used this format for presentations.
An sdp file can contain multiple slides with text, formatting, and other presentation content. It belongs to the older presentation formats used before the OpenDocument Presentation format became the standard format for Impress.
The format is now mainly encountered in legacy files. Apache OpenOffice Impress and LibreOffice Impress are available for multiple platforms and can provide compatibility with these presentations.
Open the file with Apache OpenOffice Impress or LibreOffice Impress. Both applications are available for multiple platforms. On Microsoft Windows, an older installation of StarOffice may also open it.
If the file does not open directly, start Impress and use its Open command to select the file.
Open the file in Apache OpenOffice Impress or LibreOffice Impress and save it in the current OpenDocument Presentation format, usually with the odp file extension. The presentation can also be exported to PDF for distribution.
Impress may also offer export or Save As options for other presentation formats, although complex layouts and unsupported features may require checking after conversion.

RealAudio scalable multicast files were used with RealNetworks streaming technology to describe multicast audio sessions. The session description can identify the streamed content and provide the connection details required by RealPlayer to join it.
This is a session-control file, not an audio recording. Its associated MIME types include application/sdp and application/x-sdp. The format belongs to older RealAudio streaming workflows and may depend on a compatible multicast server and network.
Open the file with RealPlayer on Microsoft Windows. If the file describes a multicast session, RealPlayer must also be able to reach the specified stream and network.
Do not expect the file to open as a standalone audio recording: it is a description used to start or join a stream.
A RealAudio scalable multicast .sdp file is not an audio file, so it cannot be meaningfully converted to MP3, WAV, or another audio format. It describes access to a stream rather than storing the stream's audio data.
If the associated stream is available, compatible playback or recording software may be able to capture it, but that is separate from converting the .sdp file itself.
