• responding to the request with a response indicating a capability to support the request;
• and
• sending through the network the one or more second real-time data associated with said first real-time streaming media data.

A method for operating a data processing device coupled to a network comprising:

• sending a request for first real-time streaming media data through the network, said request including a request for one or more second real-time data including names of real time transfer protocol extensions to said first real-time streaming media data, wherein each of the real time transfer protocol extensions represents a type of a transmission operation for said first real-time streaming media data over the network, wherein the type of the transmission operation is associated with a frame type, a transmit time, a packet position, a security, or any combination thereof;
• receiving a response through the network indicating support for the one or more second real-time data;
• informing to send the supported second real-time data;
• receiving the first streaming media data and the one or more second real-time data through the network;
• receiving a request to send said first real-time streaming media data;
• and
• sending the requested first real-time streaming media data.
