Export Real Media Files in Adobe Premiere Pro 1.5

Place your video clip in the Premiere timeline. From the File menu, select Export > Adobe Media Encoder. The Transcode Settings window will appear:

From the Format drop-menu select RealMedia. The options and information in the rest of the window change to reflect this format.

From the Preset drop-menu select the preset which best matches your delivery platform. For example, if the file is going to be served from a web page to an audience with reasonably fast connections, choose something like RM9 NTSC download 256.

To customize or create your own preset, simply make a change to any of the options listed under Summary. You will be prompted to save the preset when you close the window. You can also add your own custom comment to describe the preset in the Comment field.

Metadata

Metadata fields allow you to enter optional details such as a title which will be recorded with the file (these things wil be shown in the user's RealMedia player).

Saving

When you're happy with the settings click OK. You will be prompted for a file name and location for the transcoded file. Premiere saves RealMedia video files with the .rmvb extension.
