The .rmvb filename extension refers to the RealMedia variable bitrate format which is an extension of the RealMedia multimedia container format. RMVB is a proprietary multimedia digital container developed and maintained by RealNetworks, an internet streaming Media Company. It is different from its closely related format .rm in that it was designed for distribution of complete multimedia content, however it does support real-time media streaming. Video and Audio streams can be encoded and packaged into this format and distributed as single files for later playback on compatible devices and software as opposed to file streaming on high bandwidth networks.
Being the most broadly compatible audio and video container format from the lossy class of containers, the MPEG standards are supported by numerous audio and video products and software applications. The standards were designed to meet the growing need for digital storage of audio and video media. They both utilize a lossy compression to scale down VHS quality digital video and CD audio. The two formats, mpeg-1 and mpeg-2, are the result of the combined efforts of the moving picture experts group which was established in 1988. The mpeg-1 has its beginnings in the same year, with an initial release to public in 1993.
FreeFileConvert uses tuned encoding for RMVB to MPEG conversions, preserving clarity while trimming file size. Finished audio streams instantly across phones, tablets, desktops, and modern browsers without extra tweaks.
Upload RMVB files from desktop, tablet, or cloud storage, queue multiple jobs, and let the converter finish autonomously. Return whenever convenient to download synchronized MPEG results on any device you rely on.
Process up to 5 files sized 1000 MB per batch without splitting queues manually. Mixed-format uploads convert together, producing consistent MPEG audio with dependable progress tracking.
.rmvb files use proprietary video and audio compression encoding formats comparable to the MPEG-4 Part 10 standard such as H.264/MPEG-4 AVC format. Byte ordering for the RMVB format is big endian and consists of a series of chunks. The first chunk is always the real media file header.
The mpeg-1 file format extension is standardized in ISO/IEC 11172. It was extended from the H.261 and JPEG file formats and is capable of scaling down VHS video at a ratio of 26:1 and CD audio at a ratio of 6:1. The format allows for transcoding of video and associated audio to a maximum bitrate of 1.5 Mbit/second. interlaced video is supported in the second iteration of the mpeg format, mpeg-2. Video encoding is achieved using the compression standard H.262. The newer format also has added support for newer audio encoding techniques.
