[Red5] OpenFMS/Mammoth Media Server

[Tyler Kocheran]

Red5 is, of course, my complete preference in this scenario. By posting this
thread, my intent was to get some cogs turning in the community, because I
believe Red5 can definitely benefit from observing other similar projects
and incorporating some of the concepts. So, if this came across as a
"Mammoth is greater than Red5" post, that is not at all my intent. My intent
was to foster some investigation to how they are achieving some of their
features so that those features may be included in Red5. Personally, I
prefer Red5 100% of the time to all other media servers, because Red5 is so
much more than just a media server.

But it is very good to hear that you've been able to implement speech
recognition, it seems like a very enticing feature, for so many reasons on
so many levels. What steps need to be taken in order to add the new(er)
RTMPE protocols as well as a multiple origin clustering configuration? Is
there some way that I can help out with that? If you'd point me in the right
direction, I'm sure I could find some time to come up with a patch to enable
these features.

Long live Red5!

And do this, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of
sleep;
for now our salvation is nearer than when we first believed.
