The templating system in rtMedia works in a standard way.
Customizing Templates
To customize the templates, just copy the /wp-content/plugins/rtmedia/templates/ or /wp-content/plugins/buddypress-media/templates/ directory to your current theme’s directory and rename it rtmedia.
If rtMedia finds the relevant template inside the {your_theme}/rtmedia/ directory, it is loaded instead of the one included with the plugin.
After this, you can modify the template files to your need.

Important Notes
As many features of rtMedia depend on Javascript, it is not advisable to change the markup a lot. It is also not advisable to remove any class or id definitions. At the most, additional classes should be added. Any additional data that needs to be displayed in any of the templates should be done using appropriate hooks and filters.
