RealMedia plays in almost nothing today. MOV is what Final Cut, iMovie and other Apple tools prefer. An RM file usually holds RealVideo with RealAudio. RM is at home in old streaming video from the early web; MOV is the usual choice for recording and editing on Apple devices.
The defaults suit most files. Under Options you can lower the resolution, trade quality against file size, remove the sound and trim the start and end. This is demanding work for a browser: a long or high-resolution file can take several minutes, and your device does all of it, so keep the tab open.
This pair uses the compatibility engine, ffmpeg built for the browser, because RM is not handled by the browser's built-in codecs. It is a one-off download of about 10 MB that the browser keeps, it is slower than the built-in codecs, and it takes files up to 1 GB.
