Hello,

Over the last couple of days I have been trying to determine the cause of a
problem encoding a live stream using On2 Flix Live to Red5, and as it
happens, Wowza Media Server.

The problem was that when playing back the stream, it would start okay
(though "degraded" might be a better description), and then after about 25
seconds the video would totally degrade. The audio would continue unabated
however.

Since I'm also looking at Wowza, I called them up to see what the problem
might be, and as it turns out they released a new version today to address
the issue. It appears to be something caused by the new On2 Flix encoder
version 8.0.1.9. After I upgraded WMS (1.1.1 -> 1.1.2), the problem went
away and I can now play back live video perfectly.

I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced this problem with Red5, or if
there are plans to address it. Conversely, what encoder software are people
currently using to create live streams? It's been a struggle to track all
this stuff down in the mailing lists and the sparse documentation on the
subject.

Thanks for any assistance,
