Thank you very much Abdul,
After
a good battle I was arrived to your second proposition, very light and
simple.
I
wanted to go the 'deluxe' way and bundle it into a .swc so I could
instantiate a <video> tag and pass arguments like 'height', 'width', 'src'
video settings etc ... but coudn't get it work :(( I can load it into a
container but can't access the video object inside (I simplified, just trying
to attachVideo on the client side without
Flashcom) :((
I am
actualy digging the flex doc 'Developing Flex Components and Themes in Flash
AUthoring' to see what I miss.
Whenever I get something solid like a rock, I'll post
the file ;))
Cheers,
Philippe Maegerman

You don't need a VideoObject to send stream to flashcom. But you need it
to see what is going to server :)
Video class can not be instantiated using ActionScript. You need to have
a Video Symbol in your swf.
There are two methods:
1) Use MediaDisplay
2) Create a swf with Video symbol and embed in Flex app.
First method would work without much effort but file size might be more,
because entire MediaDisplay code would be in swf even though you won't
be using any MediaDisplay functionality.
Second method would take 5-10 minutes more effort for creating a swf
with Video symbol using Macromedia Flash IDE. But final output of your
application would be small.
I am going to show you both ways here. See the following code and also
at attached files:
1) ##CameraUsingMediaDisplay.mxml##
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.macromedia.com/2003/mxml"
width="600" height="600" creationComplete="onAppInit()" >
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
var video:Video;
var camera:Camera;
var netConnection:NetConnection;
var netStream:NetStream;
function onAppInit()
{
//Get there reference of video object, check
MediaDisplay.as in FlexforFlash.zip.
video = mediaDisplay["_videoHolder"]._video;
//Make a new connection object
netConnection = new NetConnection();
//Connect to the service
//my_nc.connect("rtmp://server.com/yourapp/theInstance");
}
function startCamera()
{
camera = Camera.get();
video.attachVideo(camera);
//netStream = new NetStream(netConnection);
//netStream.attachVideo(camera);
//netStream.publish("myCameraStream", "live");
}
]]>
</mx:Script>
<mx:MediaDisplay id="mediaDisplay" width="340"
height="280"></mx:MediaDisplay>
<mx:Button label="Start Camera" click="startCamera()"/>
</mx:Application>
2) ##CameraUsingVideoSymbol.mxml##
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.macromedia.com/2003/mxml"
width="600" height="600" creationComplete="onAppInit()" >
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
//emebd videoHolder.swf which contains a movieclip
symbol 'videoHolder'. videoHolder movieclip is wrapper around Video
object
[Embed(source="videoHolder.swf", symbol="videoHolder")]
var videoHolder:String;
var video:Video;
var camera:Camera;
var netConnection:NetConnection;
var netStream:NetStream;
function onAppInit()
{
//_video is the instance name of Video object inside
videoHolder movieclip.
video = image.content._video;
//Make a new connection object
netConnection = new NetConnection();
//Connect to the service
//my_nc.connect("rtmp://server.com/yourapp/theInstance");
}
function startCamera()
{
camera = Camera.get();
video.attachVideo(camera);
//netStream = new NetStream(netConnection);
//netStream.attachVideo(camera);
//netStream.publish("myCameraStream", "live");
}
]]>
</mx:Script>
<mx:Image id="image" contentPath="videoHolder" width="340"
height="280" />
<mx:Button label="Start Camera" click="startCamera()"/>
</mx:Application>

Is it possible to instantiate a Video Object in Flex to attach a webcam
and stream to flashcom?
