RTMFP for one-to-many live streamming

Hi

I was using RTMP for server side live stream publish, and there is a disadcantage for RTMP, which based on TCP.

The Sliding Window Algorithm in TCP will cause delays for real-time video/audio data transferring after playing for a while.

So I am excited to see the RTMFP in latest FMS 4.0, which based on UDP.

There are many introduce articles for RTMFP, none of which talks about the server-to-client publishing,

I am wondering if the RTMFP supports publishing live video to multi-clients from the FMS server.

If it does, will the clients receive some of the audio/video packages from other clients to reduce the server bandwidth required?

Than kyou

No, I am wondering , if I publish live video from Flash Media Live Encoder to the FMS server, and there are many subscribers for this stream,

Is it possible to use RTMFP so that the subscribers can share the data and reduce the bandwitdth of the server
