Sorry I tried to edit my post but it took too long and failed me... Arrgh!
Here was my finalized post
I found this while trying to determine if X264 was capable of compressing live video that is being simultaneously streamed. Turns out it isn't capable but theoretically possible. I believe that RAYS is one of the companies he mentions trying to develop off of this advancement. Written by Dark Shakiri AKA Jason Garret-Glaser.
Wait... didn't he say that Rays tech WAS X264, and therefore thieving it and "re-labeling" it? If that was true and what he said here is true, then....might they both be true? Sure, both can compress, but Rays is offering a cloud based platform to aid in distribution and Live compression. Now, granted that this article is a bit old, but if Rays employees were in on developing X264 it is possible that they could have figured out more steps in advancing this tech. If they did, then it is well within their right to market that innovation. That is, after all, one of the ENTIRE POINTS of open source software. Like the Human Genome Project, many software developers create software that others can use for free and use to try to create something more than they did. The secrets of our very DNA were released for the entire world to PROFIT FROM!!! So lets all just stop whining about how Raystream's tech started and focus more on where it is going!
