Adobe to Open RTMP

Related Categories: Flash Media Server, Flash Platform Adobe,

Tuesday Adobe announce plans to open the Real Time Messaging Protocol and release it on the Adobe Developer Connection later in 2009. A key point in the press release is that only RTMP is being opened and not the secure protocols (e.g. RTMPe and RTMPS):

To benefit customers who want to protect their content, the open RTMP specification will not include Adobe’s unique secure RTMP measures, nor will the license that accompanies the specification allow developers to circumvent such measures. However, developers will be free to use their own technological measures to secure content. The RTMP specification does not provide any requirement or restrictions on a developer’s own measures to secure content.
