How to setup Red5 for the videowhisper's "video chat" plugin
I've installed the video chat plugin (http://community.elgg.org/pg/plugins/project/420139/developer/videowhisper/video-chat) on my elgg site, but the program says that he needs RTMP server, and I found Red5 as the perfect free solution. But I don't have any ideia of how installing the Red5 plug-in on my server, if I have to install outside the elgg site server, I already have another domain ready for this, and after installing, how to setup? the videowhisper's plug-in asks for:
RTMP application address on a rtmp server.
and,
RTMFP Server.
Well, the application address I understood that it is the path for the aplication for the Red5 plug-in that you diwnload at videowhisper's website, but the server, what do I place in there? And how do I install the Red5 plug-in on the website?

You must log in to post replies.have you tried asking this on red5 forums ?;-P @ www red5 org support ???
Red5 installation depends on the server OS you have. You will need a dedicated server or VPS to install Red5. For Windows and OSX there are installers. For linux there are tutorials depending on flavour.
Latest Red5 can be downloaded for free from http://code.google.com/p/red5/ . It includes binary auto installers and also java source. There are various online tutorials for setting up red5 on multiple linux flavors like for Centos , Ubuntu .
Then you just need to deploy the VideoWhisper rtmp side .
Optionally, get a free RTMFP address by registering with Adobe Cirrus to enable P2P.
