Hi Pedro Da Ros, I believe you would need to convert the video from the input format (AVI) to the flash video format (FLV).
You could probably use something like ffmpeg (http://ffmpeg.mplayerhq.hu/) to do this conversion. BTW, Have you been able to stream a FLV file using Red 5. If yes, could you please send me the pointers to do the same.
