[Freeswitch-users] FS with Red5 Streaming-Server (RTMP-Stream)

[Richard Alam]

Yes, this can be done.

We are doing this for voice conference using Flash, Red5 and
FreeSWITHCH/Asterisk.

We basically have a SIP client based on Red5Phone. The SIP client
takes audiodata from RTMP, transcodes Nellymoser to Ulaw, then send
the audio data using RTP to FS/Asterisk.

With FS, we can use Speex Wideband so there is no need to transcode
but to just take audio data from RTMP then shove it into an RTP packet
to FS.

You can take a look at the code here

Let me know if you have any questions.
