Can Flash Media Server 3.5 serve a video rtsp stream to android?
Or do we need to use Wowza or red5 with Android rtsp clients?
Are there any other rtsp servers to consider when the client is going to be running on android?

A:
Try darwin streaming server. This can stream MPEG-4 and 3GPP.
Note that Videoplayer in Android supports RTSP streaming as per 3GPP PSS Streaming specifications. i.e fileformat is 3GP/MP4 and the supported codecs are MPEG-4 Video, AVC, MPEG4 Audio, AMR, and H263.
One potential drawback with darwin is you need 3rd party tools to do hinting first.There are several free hinting tools. Definitely worth a try.

Do you know, does wowza requiring hinting? Or is hinting something only Darwin Streaming server requires?

I am not sure about wowza. Any rtsp streaming would require hinting. Wowza might do it internally(Again,I am not sure).

It looks to me like wowza does not require hinting.

You can use RTMP in Android 2.2 or later if you're using a Flash or Air client for streaming.
