.ogg
.wmv
.rm
Amongst others.

Those three formats (I've never seen any Real Player codec releases btw) are dying and hardly used. With the exception of a few older releases in .ogg, these formats are almost always the crappiest releases and there are better alternatives.
MPlayer OSX can actually play all formats, even the three listed above. It isn't able to switch languages in .ogm, but as these releases are rare and easily muxed into .mkv, this isn't a problem. Anyone using the program should know that # (Shift+3) changes the language and J changes the subtitles.
If you keep your media around instead of deleting immediately after watching, use Plex. I'm fairly certain it can play just about everything and it uses much more advanced codecs which utilize the Mac OSX software and hardware more efficiently.

Yes, but my response was based on iindigo's "It's both the same... except".
It's like saying, "It's the same on both cars... except one is automatic and one is manual".
