Hello everyone. I've been trolling the discussions on these two things lately and thought I'd offer up my 2 cents:
Adobe Flash Media Encoder - Trash. Not a single good thing to say about this 4fps live monstrosity. On2 Flix Live - Works absolutely beautifully. Had 4 machines watching a live Vp6 stream being broadcast through Red5 and when I checked hours later they were still in perfect sync and playing smoothly. Digital Rapids Stream VP6 Plugin - Will know as soon as I receive my evaluation copy of the plugin (it's built off the On2 SDK, so it should have the same results as Flix Live) I'm running Revision 1761 (I'm afraid to check out anything newer as I don't want lose my ability to stream Vp6. Yes, I have several bad words to say about On2's pricing structre, but they did manage to put together a pretty sweet little codec, I was testing a 256k stream and it looked damn good, very similar to Windows Media 9 Advanced). When I throw the output.flv from Flix into a scope's streams folder, it shows up and works perfectly (onMetaData is getting called, the project I'm working relies on it being triggered) The FLVs I transcoded using ffmpeg appear to work perfectly as well. FLVs recorded by Red5 from Flix Live (using saveAs in streamBroadcastStart on the BroadcastStream coming from the encoder) don't seem to have a resolution or framerate, but onMetaData is getting triggered and the streams play perfectly fine. If you guys have any patches or new versions you want tested, I have another 24 days on my Flix Live evaluation and 30 on my Stream plugin (in retrospect, I should've arranged it so one's trial begins when the other expires) Jason _______________________________________________ Red5 mailing list [email protected] http://osflash.org/mailman/listinfo/red5_osflash.org
