Hi Ming,

sorry for the late reply ...

I'm a bit confused with the description here. It describes the RealMedia (RM)
container format, but what you wanted is a RealVideo encoding (RV).

A quick search into FFMpeg (the only Open Source software decoder I could find),
the RealVideo comes in 4 incompatible flavours, RV10/RV20/RV30/RV40 also known
as  RealVideo 1 / G2 / 8 / 9+10. I think the format here should be a RealVideo
format, and it should specify the flavours you want to support (probably only
RV40).

regards,
Nicolas
