17 Jan 12 Android Market
I have created pro version of my broadcaster app for Android and Blackberry (playbook). The pro version allows for FMS or Red5 authentication as well as selection of all available cameras / microphones. The next two things I’ll be adding are i10n/i18n and h.264; the latter may not be possible in mobile air but I’ll give it a go.
Pro: https://market.android.com/details?id=air.org.gregoire.mobile.BroadcasterPro
Free: https://market.android.com/details?id=air.Broadcaster
The free version probably won’t be seeing any updates since I hate working on it in Flash CS5.
Lastly, If there’s enough interest I’ll do a version for iOS.
Update 1/18/12
I got h264 publish working in Android last night! woot! What a pain that was.. I need to verify that all is well with the stream data and my modifications to the application then I’ll put the update in the market.
Update #2 1/18/12
The latest pro build is up on the market 1.0.3, it allows you to stream h.263 or h.264 from your Android device. Enjoy!

H264 on Air for mobile!!? How? Please share a secret
Is there anyway to keep the broadcaster running after returning to the home screen? My stream stops when I do this I would like to be able to stream and do other things on my android tablet. I have purchased the pro version and have no problem sending my stream. I would just like to be able to use other apps when streaming, I am using this while storm chasing.
I bought the pro version to use for streaming live video to a Storm Chasing Website. It streams great just one question about adding a feature, Is there anyway to have broadcaster pro still running(Streaming) after returning to the home screen. I am trying to use other apps while streaming since I will be using this from a moving vehicle while storm chasing. If not I will just have to stream at certain times on the road, switching back and forth from other apps and broadcaster. Your help would be appreciated as far I can tell your app and a chinese app are the only way to stream via an android device, and I know there is an interest to stream from these devices while on the road. I have already started passing the word around the Chasing community about your app and its streaming capabilities, along with affiliated chase sites as a solution to streaming via android.
Thanks,
Cyrus
I haven’t tried it but it should be possible. In addition if you have ICS it may be possible now with the task switcher.
