Red5 open source vs Red5pro
A common confusion that surrounds the product model of red5 is different between Red5Pro and Red5 open source. It is important to know that although the open source offering and the profession grade offering are similar in many ways, they have a different product model and development path.
The open source offering can be modified and used for almost any kind of use on the web within its open source licensing scope. The professional version, on the other hand, is a closed source software which builds on the success of the open source code. While the open source version has almost everything you need it deprives you of some cutting-edge need of the hour features. Given below is a feature comparison between the open source and the professional flavors of Red5.
