Alas, I've tried all different formats I could produce, and *lots* of
variations on apparently supported formats such as uncompressed
Quicktime and AVI(*), but so far, all were rejected by RP, without any
clue as to what exactly is wrong with 'em.

Yet from what I've heard, the Windows version seems to support anything
you throw at it without any problems whatsoever, compressed formats and
all, provided it can be handled by DirectShow.

I find this situation rather stupid: AFAIK, Real tries to offer an
independent alternative to Microsoft-controlled video formats such as
WMV and so forth - yet their flagship video stream tool seems heavily
dependent on Microsoft technology, and the Linux version appears all but
useless.

*: 'Uncompressed' Quicktime and AVI don't appear to be single,
well-defined formats either, but seem to be available in a number of
variations. The more I get to know about video editing and video
formats, the more I find it a miracle that it works at all ...

Not the Linux version. See

Of course, there's a myriad of combinations of rendering settings I
haven't tried. Perhaps someone who knows more about the ins and outs of
video formats could offer a few more clever suggestions on what to feed
RP?

Thanks so far already, regards,

Richard Rasker
