Updates on H.264 support in Red5

Here are some updates on h.264 support in Red5. The link below will take you to a demo site to showcase h.264 streaming in Red5. This demo has a simple AS3 Flash client capable of playing H.264 content with Red5. The FLV content shows the huge difference in quality.

Currently Red5 does not support h.264 live streaming. It currently concerns only on VOD. h.264 feature is now scheduled for the 0.9.0 release.

hey, any idea if the red5 project is abandoned? the http://osflash.org/red5 looks pretty out of date, and the last "Red5 v0.8.0 Release Candidate 1" is from 09.29.2008.
i tried googleing them, but i cannot seem to find any answer
thanks

Hi Georgi,

I don't think so. Ya Red5 Jira is down, i just checked but Red5 0.8.0 is now in rc2, so work is still going on. You can follow up the progress on Red5 here at-
