RFC 3555     MIME Type Registration of RTP Payload Formats     July 2003


1. Introduction

   The MIME registration procedure described in RFC 2048 [1] was
   originally designed for transport of multimedia information via
   asynchronous Internet mail, but the MIME namespace now provides
   identification for other transport modes as well.  This document
   defines the procedure to register MIME subtype names for use with the
   Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP), RFC 3550 [2], to identify RTP
   payload formats.

   This document also registers all the RTP payload formats defined in
   the RTP Profile for Audio and Video Conferences, RFC 3551 [3], as
   MIME subtypes under the "audio" and "video" MIME types.
