I believe that would be for mpeg4 encoders that stream to RTSP which  
will proxy to red5 as the flash player has H264 codec built in now for  
VOD.

You wont be able to do it in the flash player unless it allows for  
H264 encoding. Seeing it has H264 codec playback, I have no idea why  
they havent allowed for H264 encoding, so a really good question !

I would check with Adobe first I guess if this feature is planned as  
that would also cancel out the need for RTSP proxy development so the  
team can work on fixing up current issues instead ? There is memory  
leaks and cpu performance issues to fix up still I guess ?
