Charles,

Short answers to you questions:

1. I have no idea. I am doing a C# implementation of Red5 and try to
keep up with the Java version. As always, concerning open source: do it
yourself and contribute... Maybe anybody else on this list can
elaborate.

2. Yes. You can use ADPCM encoding for the audio, or MP3. This cannot be
done from within an SWF though!

3. Look at RTMPClient.java. This is a client class hat *could* help you.
You have to do the complete audio and video capturing by yourself
though. I expect there to be code available that handles capturing from
audio and video devices with Java. Encoding ADPCM is easy. Encoding the
video it a little more complicated. You need o investigate that, since I
have no knowledge of that (yet).

4. We (out company) are going full haul: proprietary capturing app,
connecting to Red5.

5. Please take the time to download the Flash file format from Adobe
(search on their site). You need to register (no cost) to download and
read the documentation. It explains which audio and video formats are
available. We are going to use ADPCM since is it light-weight for
transcoding and (de)muxing.

6. The custom app just needs to talk RTMP with the data supported by
flash and Red5. For detais, see 5.

HTH,

/Rob
