use smil to insert a RealPix or RealFlash leader in front of the actual
higher bandwidth content.  These file are very low bitrate and can be
set to stay in view for a while (say 30 seconds) using the duration
parameter of the RealPix file or even sequencing in the SMIL file.
There are example of this in the G2 Production Guide
(http://service.real.com/help/library/encoders.html)

cheers!
