[Red5] VP6 implementation

OK, another stupid question.

As I am researching, while I use Flex as my live feed provider.

I don't see any way to encode a live stream with VP6 via Flex.

The only way I see (if I am interpreting this correctly) is to
either use Flash 8 or Flash CS3.

Sorry if my questions area elementary but now I am trying to understand
encoding for video for both VOD and Live Streaming.
