Summary:                    [patch] [branch] RTMP support in Asterisk
Description: 
I created a new branch that implements Adobe's RTMP (Real Time Media
Protocol).

It allows Asterisk to connect as a client to an RTMP media server like
Red5 or FMS (Flash Media Server), and then publish or receive media streams
from such server. I only tested the connection with Red5.

To install the branch, you'll need several libavcodec, included in FFMPEG
version 0.6. Be careful to configure FFMPEG's sources with the
--enable-shared option activated in the configure script.

Prior to install Asterisk, you need to have librtmp on your system.
librtmp is part of the rtmpdump program : http://rtmpdump.mplayerhq.hu/

To install it :
# wget http://rtmpdump.mplayerhq.hu/download/rtmpdump-2.2e.tar.gz [^]
# tar zxvf rtmpdump-2.2e.tar.gz
# cd rtmpdump-2.2e/
# make
# make install

To install Asterisk :
# svn co http://svn.digium.com/svn/asterisk/team/phsultan/rtmp-support
asterisk-rtmp
# cd asterisk-rtmp
# ./configure
# make menuselect
[check here that chan_rtmp is eligible for installation]
# make
# make install

Dele: thanks a lot for the information regarding timestamps in recent Flash
clients. I'll modify the source according to your suggestion during the
week. I hope that will solve cmendes0101's issue. By the way, do you plan
to integrate real-time video with red5phone? While FFPlayback behaves quite
well within Asterisk, I'd love to have real time video packets handled too.
I started to write code in this purpose, but wasn't able to get H.264 video
frames from the Flash client (10.x) I tested. Any chance you could help?

gabole: Did you try to upgrade librtmp to the 2.3 version? Also, having
the application configurable as a parameter seems to be feasible, though
you can't have have Asterisk connect to more than one app.

Just for information, the code branch has just been resynchronized with
Asterisk's trunk.
