 ''RealMedia'' can mean just the (newer) format with signature ".RMF", or it can be expanded to also encompass the older audio-only [[RealAudio]] format with signature ".ra". This article is mainly about the newer format. For the older format, see [[RealAudio]].

 == Disambiguation ==
-The extent to which ''RealMedia'' is the official name is not clear. It is used in the MIME type, but seems to be avoided in most documentation. If a file contains video, it may be said to be in '''RealVideo''' format (a term that may also encompass other things, such as some codecs). A file that contains only audio is said to be in '''RealAudio''' format (a term that also encompasses other things, including the older [[RealAudio]] format, and some codecs).
+At the end user level, a RealMedia file is likely to be described as being in '''RealVideo''' (if it contains video) or '''RealAudio''' (if it contains only audio) format, instead of "RealMedia". But note that the terms ''RealVideo'' and ''RealAudio'' can also encompass other things, such as codecs, and the older [[RealAudio]] format.
-In practice, ''RealMedia'' can mean just the (newer) format with signature ".RMF", or it can be expanded to also encompass the older audio-only [[RealAudio]] format with signature ".ra". This article is mainly about the newer format. For the older format, see [[RealAudio]].
