Red5 Flash Server

Red5 Flash Server is a module package for Drupal which allows you to record Flash video files (FLV) by using a standard web cam (or built-in web camera) together with the Red5 Open Source Flash Server (http://osflash.org/red5).
The difference to similar video recorder modules is that we want people to be independent of third-party providers. People should run their own Red5 Flash server instead. The advantages are:

  • you can create your own video conversation community
  • you have full access to your Flash video files
  • you can record high quality videos without paying a license fee (because Red5 Flash server is open source and free - but offering same functionality as Adobe Flash Server)

Possible uses of the module are for education, e-learning or just doing video conversations (like http://www.seesmic.com).
We tried to keep the module as simple as possible, not creating new database tables but to reuse existing ones (like files table).
