It includes support for MP3 audio (.mp3), RealAudio, and RealVideo (.rm, .ra, .rv). Other data types are supported through the Helix Universal Server. It uses RTSP/RTP streaming delivery for standards-compliant clients and proxies, an RTSP cloaked protocol over HTTP, and media data delivery via TCP, UDP unicast and multicast, and HTTP.
