I'm new to RTMP, Red5, and working with client-server apps in Java and Flash. I have had a few issues working with Red5 to date and was wondering if anyone could shed some light on them.
1) The debian package that I found does not seem to have an admin console. It is installed on an Ubuntu-Breezy system. 2) When attempting to compile with ant on my VPS I have run into A LOT of issues relating to memory problems. I was finally able to get it to compile by modifying the build.xml file to include statements for max memory on each JAVAC entity. I have set ANT_OPTS=-Xmx185M but when it attempts to launch I still get out of memory issues. Additionally i had to install the Java SDK, Ant, and Red5 into /opt and set all the environment vars in /etc/profile. as I said, it works... it just won't launch Red5. My hosting provider guarantees me a constant 512M with a burst of up to ~800M. the behavior is the same if I launch using /opt/red5/red5.sh which I modified to include my -Xmx185M. 3) What do I do?? I have a front-end in flash to stream an MP3 radio stream. How do I setup Red5 for this? I think I have figured out how to connect the client to the server but not sure how to configure the server. The documentation that I could find was somewhat vague. I'm not looking for THE solution, just a starting point and a direction. I think it's awesome what you guys are doing for the open source community here and think the advantage Red5 offers those that are less financially endowed is great :) I would like to see improvied documentation and volunteer to document and share by experiences with Red5 as time allows. Keep up the excellent work and I hope someone out there can help. -- Cole Nielsen _______________________________________________ Red5 mailing list [email protected] http://osflash.org/mailman/listinfo/red5_osflash.org
