I will likely want to use both if I find the right setup... looking at Kaltura w/red5 server, and others.

It will be setup on a dedicated server likely with an option to serve media from a cdn in near future. I am not purchasing the server until I know exactly what I need. So many options, but not all work with just any server. Suggestions?

It supports all codecs and it does dynamic adaptive streaming over http so you dont need a media server its an encode once and play anywhere type encode as well because its both dynamic and adaptive.
its a great idea that would also help to thwart piracy in that it could only be ripped via frame grabs
at some point it should be very beneficial to this biz...specially when used with H.265

I am aware of this, it was obvious when I read what it was that it would work perfectly. Until the cross platform thing turned it into a deal breaker, at least for now. There are cross platform players that seem to support it, but not fully haha. It would be nice to see a standard for all browsers across all devices. I am wondering what other technologies will try to do to stall it for good, or outperform, though imo unlikely at this point.
I am quite surprised at how much I am learning the more I look into it. So many options and nothing "really" works together lol... I mean finding a good player, a good media server solution, and proper server setup to run them All at a good price. Then you get into transcoding and other add-on features. So much going on at once.
