RealMedia Variable Bitrate (RMVB) is a variable bitrate extension of the RealMedia multimedia digital container format developed by RealNetworks. The file extension of RMVB is “.rmvb”. It is typically used for multimedia content stored locally and welcomed by animation and Asian movies.

The encoding of RMVB utilizes the 9.0 version of variable bitrate and the partial H263/H264 algorithms on the balance of compression rate, which greatly enhances the image quality and fluency.

Compared with the old version RM, RMVB can utilize bitrate resources more reasonably. This feature can decompress RMVB video at utmost but reach to the audio-visual effects with DVD quality, so people usually suppress videos to RMVB in order to shorten the downloading time. Now, it has been gradually replaced by MP4 and other formats.
