Cool... A new RealVideo section

[SeeMoreDigital]

Thanks Doom9 for creating this section,

Hopefully it will make "New A/V Formats - Codecs" section a lot less cluttered

All we need now are some trusty and well respected moderators :)


Cheers

wow! cool, finally :D

real video is getting more and more attention as a codec for dvd backup n stuff (my favourite at the moment... 350 kbit/s audio+video and it still sounds and looks good)

[niamh]

Yes, that's welcome,it's getting a hassle to sift through all for RV tips and help .
Thank you Doom9 :)

Now we need some modos. Yep.. And who better than your good self - plus some others of course!

But what exactly does a moderator have to do. And what's the scope of a 'moderators' powers over us 'small-folk'?

[Razorblade2000]

usually they can edit and delete posts, close threads and split threads...
they also can give out warnings or ban users instantly... but that depends

[Sirber]

@SeeMoreDigital

A RV modo with a big MPEG4 avatar? :o

Mostly correct: we can't ban users, we can only strike them.

karl_lillevold would be the best modo for this section ... why not ... I vote karl_lillevold ...

[Sirber]

Who'd like to see as a modo too?

[lunaticmoon]

I can go into Sirber one vote and am needed.
Reason: It is since it seems to be free. :p

Although karl_lillevold participates in commerce too much, is it satisfactory that he is set to moderator as Doom9? :confused:

[iwod]

yeah.. may be sirber for the mod...... if you look hard 50% of the post in real section are generated by him anyway......... :p

[Razorblade2000]

sirber for mod :D
He's visiting the forum anyway to read all the threads :P

[Sagittaire]

Bon bah vive le Quebec libre alors ... :D

Joke in french

[Tuning]

Karl & Sirber, both be mods. Its them who taught me about RV.

Thanks :)

@All

Thanks for your support :D

Québec libre!!!!!! :devil:

[huang_ch]

:D After a long period down... the forum finally comes back~~~

Hmmmm... since this section contains threads about realaudio as well as realvideo shouldn't it be named "Real" or "Real codecs" instead of "RealVideo"? Someone would think it is not at all audio related just by looking at the title.

Cheers

[Sirber]

RealVideo is more known than RealMedia. I think it would be a bad move to rename it to RealMedia. It's like we name WMV9 raither than WM9.

[SeeMoreDigital]

Hi Sirber

I've been meaning to ask you. Do you know where there's a list of all the different Real file extensions?


Many thanks

[Sirber]

What about here?

.rm
.ra
.rv
.rmvb
.mkv (;))
.ram

[SeeMoreDigital]

Thanks Sirber,

Yer the man.... what no .MP4 ;)


Cheers

[Sirber]

With RealPlayer, yes! But SP2 don,t allow it to run (maybe a network thing).

[karl_lillevold]

Thanks to Sirber for answering everything while I have been on vacation! It seems I could have stayed longer :cool:

In the Media Types section of RealPlayer, the following media types are listed in the RealAudio and RealVideo section:

.rt (RealText)
.ra (RealAudio)
.rm (RV/RA)
.rmvb (RV/RA VBR)
.rp (RealPix)
.rv (RealVideo)

RealPlayer also like to .smil, but that's in the "Other types" section.

[SeeMoreDigital]

Hi Karl,

Sirber also listed the .ram file extension. I suppose this extension is totally dead now?

Are there any other old Real extensions to look out for?


Cheers

[karl_lillevold]

Yes, but .ram is not listed specifically in RealPlayer, since it is not frequently used anymore. It was originally a simple text script to play one or more RealMedia files in a certain way. It is still supported. I have noticed that when I download a .rm file via http, it sometimes gets renamed to .ram. I think the http server might be doing this.

[damrod]

hi Karl

realpix?? what's that? jpg/png encapsulated ?

for .smil i use it before to "mux" .rmvb and .rt file (don't laugh!!!! :p ) and sometimes add chapter.. not working very good so i was happy when matroska arrive :)

[damrod]

ok i found it

[Sirber]

15 December 2000Can't find anything newer?

[31 Flavas]

Heh, geez, I leave for a little bit and RealVideo gets its own forum. Not that i'm complaining ;)

[Sirber]

For when your own GUI? :p

[damrod]

we made a real gui club ;)

[SeeMoreDigital]

I like GUI's :D :D :D Even RealVideo ones!


Cheers

[Sirber]

What would you think about a GUI that can do RealVideo and XviD (and more) ? :D
