'''RealMedia''' is a type of file designed by [[RealNetworks]], and can be played with the proprietary [[RealPlayer]]. RealPlayer is avaliable for [[Windows]], [[Mac OS]], [[Mac OS X]] and [[Linux]]. Additionally, [[Helix Player]] may be able to play some files, but it lacks the proprietary codecs in some realmedia files.

RealMedia files are normally streamed over [[RTSP]] connections.

==Accepted codecs==
* [[rv]]: RealVideo
* [[ra]]: [[MPEG-4]] audio
* [[a52]], [[dnet]]: A/52 audio
* [[cook]]: Cook audio codec
* [[28_8]]: 28.8 audio codec
* [[sipr]], Probably unsupported

==Compatability==
Currently, [[VLC media player]] should be able to play most audio and video of .rm, .rmvb files.

Sipr might not be supported.

==See Also==
* [[RealAlternative]]: Installs, and allows RealMedia files to be played in Media Player Classic
