There are a few open bugs, mostly related to seeking.  Dan Rossi is another
good person to contact as he's been finding most bugs (while Paul has been a
one-man-machine trying to fix them).

We'd have to write the code (it'd go in xuggle-xuggler-red5 Adapter
project).  Right now we're extremely busy with some non-Red5 related work,
so we're unlikely to get to that in the new few months.

That said, we're happy to accept patches to the existing adapter if you want
to try your hand at it.  You shouldn't need to modify C or C++ code to get
it working -- it really is just about converting packets of MP4 data into a
format that Red5 can understand.
