Internals of the RA/RV are proprietary and their formats are not publicly
available. RealMedia is the container type which encapsulates RA/RV
tracks, etc. RM type is described in the RealSystem SDK (formerly RMASDK).
You can get the SDK from
http://www.realnetworks.com/devzone/downlds/index.html

The streaming control protocol is RTSP, which is well documented (IETF).
Different implementations are interoperable. The stream payload format
is RTP with some additional headers.

I have some thoughts on how one could support Real types under Inferno
(for Windows) using the RMASDK, if you are interested.
