Video streaming on Nokia 6210 with Red5

red5 streaming on mobile

red5 streaming on mobile

This week i was experimenting  a lot with red5, so thought of trying this out :) . With flash lite 3.0 released its not much problem porting most of your action script 2.0 code to mobile version of it. The only thing being that you need to ensure proper memory usage. Here is  an example of setting up video streaming on Nokia 6201 with flash lite 3.0 and Red5 streaming server. If you want to tryout for other phones, please check their device profiles for flash lite version and streaming video support.

Remember we want lite,  so no flv components. The only tools we shall use is the Video Object, Movie Clips, and home grown action script. To get the source code running you need to have Red5 installed on your local machine.

Get latest stable build of red5 server from  http://osflash.org/red5

Simple logging class for AIR applications

Working on a recent AIR project , i had the need to log activities of the user on my application and have it mailed to me for debugging the application remotely. You can setup your own php/asp/jsp gateway via remoting or URLLoader method and have your AIR application mail to log file to you. Am posting my log file though to help you get started with it. Please do feel free to post bugs/requests/comments on this if you feel.
