Real/Helix Server

Create Content

you can create the real video files (.rm or .rmvb [variable bitrate])

• Adobe Premiere Pro CS3 (no supported in CS4). See below for details
• Real Producer Basic (free download)
• Real Producer Plus ($$$) see http://www.wfu.edu/~yipcw/phy/doc/video.html (it is for the older G2 version, not v10.x)
• Real Producer Pro - discontinued
• Real Presenter - discontined, $$$ edition becomes Accordent's PresenterPRO
• Real Slideshow Basic- discontinued
• Sorenson ($$$)

* you supposedly can put .mov, .wmv, .flv files on our Helix server (currently v.12.0.0.1095), we don't have a procedure for that yet.

Host it

copy your .rm/.rmvb files to \\bismark\rtsp\your department's folder

Access the videos

on your webpage, create a metafile with .rm, .ram as extension (or .rpm if you want the video play inside the browser instead of start the standalone player, or .smil if you want a multimedia presentation, search SMIL in my homepage for demos of that) with just one line.

rtsp://real.wfu.edu/your_department_folder_name/video_filename.rm

(if that doesn't work, usually is your webpage doesn't have the MIME types for real video set

add these to your .nsconfig

<Files *>
AddType exp=*.ram type=audio/x-pn-RealAudio
AddType exp=*.rpm type=audio/x-pn-RealAudio-plugin
</Files>

)

Adobe Premiere Pro 1.0-CS3 export

For v1.0 see http://www.wfu.edu/~yipcw/atg/rm/

For CS3 (only support up to Real Video 9, not RV10 codec)

you can change the preset's audiences for multi bitrate SureStream. (not for VBR though)

you can tweak each audience setting afterwards, like not allow recording, frame size, frame rate etc.
