Answer 1

There is some Red5 RTMP library adaptation for android available:

I'm working on video/audio live stream publishing from Android to Red5 server right now.

You can make a regular Adobe Air application and produce builds for both iOS and Android.

Be aware that codecs are limited on the devices, for instance you cannot use h.264 on android in air. – Feticide

Answer 3

If you must use RTMP, you will need an RTMP library that works in Objective-C for iOS and I don't know of one off the top of my head. For Android, there are many options since you can write your application in Java or C. If you want to start with the lightest weight java client that I am aware of, look into flazr at http://flazr.com/

You can also no use Flash or Air to develop a publisher for Android or iOS to Red5. I have a free Air app on the market here: market.android.com/details?id=air.Broadcaster – Feticide
