Heh, good question. I've never used it.

Basically it is an HTTP server that will retrieve RTMP streams and copy their 
data to an HTTP client. From looking at the code I see that you can start it 
with the usual rtmpdump options for specifying an rtmp URL, but you can also 
request other sources by providing appropriate parameters in the HTTP Get 
request. I haven't looked closely enough at the code to see how an HTTP client 
should construct its requests yet.
