Open source video revolution – OSMF on Red5

JWFLV Player vs Flow Player vs Strobe:

Strobe Player:

Note that in some cases flash player may ask you to accept ssl certificate. this happens only with red5 running the OSMF player

OSMF is a move by Adobe which clarifies how much flash is towards openness. Whether your needs are to setup a video-tube site or live event broadcasting, OSMF and Red5 provide the perfect package to go fully open source. No more cumbersome domain licenses. No more expensive RTMP solutions. Take up Red5 , download Adobe strobe playback component and go live – completely open source. (more…)

Following Red5 Developer series from Dominick Accattato, and a neat explaination from Red5.org on CustomFilenameGenerator, Here is a ready to use, fully capable pre-compiled Red5 application for anyone who wishes to set up Flash streaming with Red5 , but does not know where to start.

The application is tested on Red5 0.8. to use it in 0.9 you may have to remove the bandwidth-setting code in main Application class and recompile it.

How to configure Stream/Record paths:


1. Edit the file file red5-web.xml in the WEB-INF directory

2. Move down to the “streamFilenameGenerator” bean definition and adjust values of recordPath and playbackPath as you wish.

3. To use absolute paths, set “absolutePath” property as true.
