Can Red5 stream to ipad and other apple devices?
 

I'd like to go open source instead of using Wowza, since it means that we can use it on as many servers as necessary. That will allow us to scale with load and provide redundant backup servers without having to purchase new licenses like with Wowza.

Thing is, can it stream to ipads and other apple devices? I've read that it can't but was also told that there's an addon you can use that will allow it. If not, I may be forced to use Wowza, which I don't really want to do.

Is there an alternative video streaming server that will also work with ElevatedX?

It cannot natively, but i did hear something about an addon that lets you do it yeah.

Sorry for the question, but the wowza license is not expensive, the servers and bandwidth it is. If you fill a server so much that you need another one, this is lots of terabytes so the bandwitdh cost is 100 times the wowza license cost (or more), I would simply go wowza to be sure all it is supported (we have not much of a choice because in live video we need realtime audio transcoding, this cost a separate license per stream however, that can get expensive).
