[Red5] Alternative live encoder available? (No On2 or FME)

Rob,

seems your code may be very helpful for me too ! As I wrote today we are 
working at clustered video chat application, one of approaches requires 
replicating audio/video data between Red5 servers. I would like to 
filter audio/video packets at Red5-instance1 and send them (for example, 
using RTMPClient) to Red5-instance2.

Using RTMPClient is one of possible ways, another way I am thinking 
about is using "virtual consumer" (connected to a BroadcastScope at 
Red5-instance1) and "virtual provider" (which creates a new 
BroadcastScope at Red5-instance2). These virtual consumer and provider 
could be connected via "network pipe" using any TCP- or UDP-based protocol.

If possible, could you please share with us some parts of your code you 
are talking about, or maybe some key ideas.

Thanks,
Victor
