Summary

Upstream PHZ76/RtspServer has been inactive since June 2023, and this fork has diverged substantially (VP8, AV1 + passthrough mode, G.711 µ-law, sprop-parameter-sets, digest-auth fixes, OpenBSD/macOS support). This PR updates the README to reflect that this repository is now developed independently by the ZoneMinder project.

  • Add a provenance paragraph crediting PHZ76 and noting independent development
  • Document the current feature set as it actually exists in src/xop/ (H.264/H.265/VP8/AV1 video, AAC/G.711A/G.711µ audio, heartbeat detection, RTSP push over TCP)
  • Fold the Chinese-only content (heartbeat, push, FAQ) into the English README and remove README_CN.md rather than maintain a stale translation
  • Repoint all links from the upstream repo to local relative paths
  • Replace the upstream author's personal email contact with GitHub issues / ZoneMinder forums

After this merges, an org admin can use Settings → General → Danger Zone → "Leave fork network" to formally detach the repo from PHZ76/RtspServer.

Upstream PHZ76/RtspServer has been inactive since June 2023, so this
repository is now developed independently by the ZoneMinder project.
Credit the original author, document the current feature set (VP8, AV1
passthrough, G.711 u-law, sprop-parameter-sets, macOS support), fold
the Chinese-only details (heartbeat detection, RTSP push, FAQ) into the
English README, and remove README_CN.md rather than maintain a stale
translation. Repoint links from the upstream repo to local paths and
replace the personal email contact with GitHub issues.
