new video format .rmvb [DONE]

Post by ElNipp »

Please add the format .rmvb to the video format list. Seems to be the file extension for the Real Video 9 Codec . Pretty impressive codec btw.

RV9 is an ok codec.
but do you really need another extension, .rm works just as good for RV9 files.

hmm
/me ponders over the necessity over having both mpg and mpeg as extensions in anidb, ah well...

.rm is usually associated with crappy quality in most people's mind. That's why I would like to have .rvmb as a new filetyp, RV9 is far from being crappy.

whether or not people think the extension is crappy because encoders has given it that kind of reputation is beside the point.

but i just found out that RMVB stands for RealMediaVariableBitrate, so i guess we need that extension, since it seems the regular rm extension would say that it isnt variable bitrate.

chinese tv-rippers use rmvb quite alot, i dont watch them though, no subs :)
