What is Red5?

Hello everyone,

I’ve just walked into this forum. I don’t know what Red5 is? Can anyone explain me?

What are the differences between Openfire and Red5?

Red5 is the server or client?

If I setup both Openfre and Red5, which features will I got? Can I use web camera?

Thanks

Karn

Red5 (see www.osflash.org/red5) is an open source media streaming server for Adobe flash. The red5 plugin is an openfire plugin that contains the red5 server and makes flash streaming available to xmpp clients like spark and custom applications.
