hi, OpenLaszlo is used for compiling the Client. You don't need it to run the Application. So it is not needed to re-destribute OpenLaszlo. It is linked into the Application as Library, when you have compiled the code you can remove OpenLaszlo's Framework.
Red5 does no transcoding. That is why its not relevant for Adobe Patents. Red5 actually acts like a Proxy. It just takes what you send there and broadcasts it to others. Besides that the RTMP Specification is meanwhile an Open Specification published by Adobe: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/rtmp/ So there should be no Issue in red5 itself. But anyway, we use Red5 just like a Library, we don't modify Red5-Code. We use the API that it provides to connect to the clients and the other way round. sebastian 2009/10/28 Niclas Hedhman <nic...@hedhman.org> > On Wed, Oct 28, 2009 at 7:38 PM, Ian Boston <i...@tfd.co.uk> wrote: > > > Also, are there any problems between Red5 and Adobe in terms of patents > on > > the Flash Media Server protocols.
