1. A method of transmitting a real-time media stream in a communications network, the method comprising:
separating a first part of the media stream from a second part of the media stream in said real-time media stream, wherein traffic in the first part of the media stream has a first classification and traffic in the second part of the media stream has a second classification;
transmitting the first part of the media stream on a first bearer and the second part of the media stream on a second bearer, wherein priority of the first bearer is higher than priority of the second bearer;
performing adaptation of a rate of transmission of the first part of the media stream in response to a change of traffic conditions on the second bearer,
wherein the first part of the media stream does not use the second bearer prior to the changed condition.
