RealVideo is usually paired with [[RealAudio]] and packaged in a [[RealMedia]] (.rm) container. RealMedia is suitable for use as a [[streaming media]] format, that one is viewed while it is being sent over the network. Streaming video can be used to watch live television since it does not require downloading the entire video in advance.
