[Flashcoders] amfphp 1.0 slow?

2006-01-09 Thread Janis Radins
Hey ppl!


I just lounched first project which runs on amfphp 1.0 and I've encountered
a problem - when flash app is accessed on web it is getting extremely slow
on data transfers.
Simple call for few kb data takes 5-10 seconds.
Otherwise everything is allright, and its very fast when lounched from ide.
Anyone expierienced that?

tnx in advance

Hey man I appreciate the links--I've been wading through my own google
results, but I'll dive in to some that you sent as well. I was kind of
hoping that maybe there was some conventional wisdom or expertise on the
list that could give me an idea of what I should be looking at (I was
hopeful some of my brothers in arms across the pond would have a bit more
experience with localization than us stateside sucka fools:).

RE: [Flashcoders] Seeking on CD's

2006-01-09 Thread Brooks Andrus
You've got a data throughput bottleneck--most aren't aware that an flv has
to cache keyframes before seeking from keyframe to keyframe becomes near
"fast". If you play all the way to the end of the file you should be able to
seek back to the one hour point in a snap, but if you are at the beginning
of a file which has not played to the point you are trying to seek to you
can experience significant delays while the player caches all of the
keyframes prior to the point you are seeking to.

Even on hard disc there is a delay, and if you listen you'll notice your
hard disc will start crapping its pants when you try to seek.

I blogged bitching about these types of issues with the NetStream object
when you are using progressive playback. Tinic Uro mentioned that if we want
Adobe to do anything about this we'll have to make some serious noise:).

[Flashcoders] Seeking on CD's

2006-01-09 Thread Sean Murphy
Hello,

  I have been banging my head against a wall with this one.  I am playing
back a 2 hour flv from a CD, which starts off playing well.  The problem
occurs when I try to seek to say 1 hour.  From the hard drive this typically
takes only a few seconds, but from a cd it can take more than a minute to
seek.  

  Any ideas are welcome.

Thanks

Sean

Re: [Flashcoders] ARP or Cairngorm

2006-01-09 Thread JesterXL
>From a background standpoint, ARP was created originally for Flash. 
Cairngorm was originally created for JSP developers coming to Flex.

ARP, the current publicly available build, is mostly created around 
ActionScript base classes.  Cairngorm is around both ActionScript and MXML.

I've found success with ARP in Flash and Flex, although, almost everyone I 
know utilizes Cairngorm in Flex.  In fact, my last project was using ARP in 
Flex, but now I'm using Cairngorm since it's bigger in scope and the rest of 
the team utilizes it.

Both have a lot in common (ServiceLocators, ModelLocators [I added to my 
build of ARP], Commands, Business Delegates, and some concept of a 
Controller/Application).  Cairngorm takes it a step farther with optional 
usage of ViewHelpers and ViewLocators.  I don't really like the concept of 
ViewHelpers, but I can see the rare need for a ViewLocator.  I hear in 
larger scoped projects, Cairngorm's concepts have more value.  Since most of 
mine have been 4 to 6 month timeframes with 1 to 2 developers, they aren't 
really considered huge.

RE: [Flashcoders] Flash 8 and CDATA XML

I'm sorry, I misunderstood your post--I didn't catch that you were creating
the xml via AS. I'm not sure exactly what you're trying to do, but using
CDATA tags in AS generated xml and expecting the CDATA tags to be stripped
out when you work that xml object isn't going to work because the xml (a bit
of a stab here) doesn't actually get parsed so there isn't anything to
"strip" the CDATA tags out.

Here's the output from your example:

[Flashcoders] Changing text based on the time of a played media

2006-01-09 Thread Marcelo Wolfgang
Hi list,

I'm trying for a few hours to figure this out, and I was unable so I'm
hoping that someone here can enlight me

I have a media playback component on my stage, it will load diferent
mixes from diferent dj's.
Each dj will have a track list, I have the start and of every track,
I've build a xml like this with the info



1
325
Egoexpress
Knartz IV
Ladomat


326
550
SRI
Yellow Fever AA1
Force Inc


551
780
Basteroid
Rabimmel
Areal



The start and end time are in seconds ( I couldn't figure out the best
way to do this, so I accept suggestions )

I also have 6 text fields on stage curr_title_txt, curr_artist_txt,
curr_reclabel_txt, next_title_txt next_artist_txt and
next_reclabel_txt.

how can I check the media playback component for the playhead position
to change the text on the text fields? (I've played with playheadTime
and I think I'm on the correct track here ), but I can't figure out
how to compare the value from the player with the data I loaded from
the xml

Any help will be appreciated

TIA

If you are looking for blisteringly fast build times MTASC is your answer -
but depending how familiar you are with eclipse and setting up the
environment it can be a bit of an obstacle.

I just started using FlashDevelop (IDE) last week and it is absolutely
*fantastic* - MTASC comes bundled and it just *works* really, really well.
Very highly recommended.

Otherwise they could argue that

Re: [Flashcoders] IE on mac documentation

Maybe you can suggest that this browser is dead...using facts.  
Otherwise they could argue that
the flash site should work on IE 4. They won't but it's the same  
argument. New macs since Safari

came out didn't ship with IE so he must be using an older OS as well.

Hi, I'd like to know if this is possible.

Lets say theres a video playing at 30 fps. Is is possible to slow down the
frame rate progressively until it has completely stopped? Something like
applying a easing effect on the video playback.

I have done this on a swf timeline before by applying easing on the
gotoAndStop function but could this be done with a video?

Jode,


Thanks, but modifying the source XML is not an option in this case.


did you try loading the XML as plain text? Flash doesn't type-check  
file, so you could use a loadVars object and the XML would be plain  
text, all yours to search-and-replace as one big string :-)


there was a discussion over the weekend about really long XML's  
loaded as text gradually toa void mega-parsing.

Is there a service anywhere that can take an XML file & evaluate it for
optimized setup for parsing? Like a webservice or something else?

I am working on an XML file that is fairly complicated and I know there are
various ways I could set it up. If I make it VERY structured and deep, it
might be easier to edit and add to in the long run, but it might not parse
very efficienty, etc.

[Flashcoders] Structuring Websites/Interfaces

2006-01-09 Thread Kevin Cannon
Hi all!

I'm wondering if anyone can recommend any books or resources on how to
structure dynamic animated sites, with lots of tweens and heavy coding.

We're moving more in that direction in our company, and although I have good
bit of experience coding Flash I want to try avoid making common mistakes.

Right now I'm at the point of having all code in external files, reading XML
data, and it's reasonably modular, but occasionally run into problems when
dealing with complex animations.

If anyone's found useful resources to help me improve what I'm doing I'd be
most grateful! :)

Thanks,

Just use onMouseDown and onMouseUp handlers for the movieclip that 
contains your map. Record the _xmouse and _ymouse at each event. Those 
are the diametric corners of your new selection. 


Oh, and if you want a box to appear and resize in sync with the user's 
movements, have the onMouseDown handler create an onMouseMove listener, 
and resize the box each time that event fires. Then onMouseUp doesn't 
need to draw the box; it can just remove the onMouseMove listener and 
leave the box at its last drawn position.

[Flashcoders] loadVariablesNum question..

2006-01-09 Thread Jose Maria Barros
Im using loadVariablesNum to send information to an ASP page..then send it
back to a email box.

The problem is that i have the textBoxes inside a movieclip and when i
receive the email..the data isnt in the email..

Flash:

loadVariablesNum("send.asp", 0, "POST");


the inputText boxes are inside a movie clip..

The ASP page:

theName = Request.Form("name of text box")
 theEmail = Request.Form("name of text box")
 theMessage = Request.Form("name of text box")

sorry for my ignorance..i tried to put
"_root.form_mc.loadVariablesNum(etc..);" but it didnt work..

The thing is that i wanted to do like an XML that has recipes.

I wanted to have the titles in a different color like( ingredients:) and
that when i insert a new recipe..the text box grows the height..to have more

[Flashcoders] RE: Flashcoders Digest, Vol 12, Issue 22

2006-01-09 Thread David Garcia
Thanks Steven, hadn't thought to add an interval to check the xml's
contents. So on the PC, every second it puts the xml in the trace. On the
mac though, every second, it shows the xml object as being empty i.e. traces
"". (without the quotes)

I should mention that the xml file is about 40k, which filled up my trace
very quickly :) I only thought about that after I hit compile...

So what could that mean? This clearly is some connection issue, perhaps?
Something isn't working even before the onLoad isn't called.

So the XML isn't loaded on the Mac, but runs fine on the PC... and only
using Flash 8 (since Flash 7 works fine on both os's)

Does the Flash 8 have some security feature that might block the XML.load()
if the swf and xml file are on the local drive and both are in the same
directory?

Thanks,
Dege

Have you set an interval to trace your XML object to see if the XML even
loads on the Mac at all regardless of the onLoad method being called?

function traceXML() {
trace(myXML);
}
checkXMLInterval = setInterval(this, "traceXML", 1000);
myXML = new XML();
myXML.ignoreWhite = true;
myXML.onLoad = function(success) {
if (success) {
trace("xml loaded");
} else {
trace("error - xml not loaded");
}
};
myXML.load(somepath);

Try that and post your results.

Re: [Flashcoders] Duplicating an object without pointing to original one

2006-01-09 Thread JesterXL
For shallow copies, you can use a for in loop.

var o:Object = {label: "test", data: 5};
var copy:Object = {};
for(var p in o)
{
copy[p] = o[p];
}

However, if the o has properties that are objects, or arrays, you'll have 
problems because your copy will still contain references.  You need to 
utilize a recursive algorithm to continually dig down on the object. 
Recursion in Flash, however, is dangerous since you have a limit of 256, and 
adjusting this in Flex only further increases the danger of locking up the 
comp.

My suggestion is to provide a clone (or duplicate) method to those data 
objects you use to copy, and leave the implementation details to that object 
rather than creating a catch-all method.

Example:

class MyObject
{
public var label:String;
public var data:Number;

public function clone():MyObject
{
var o:MyObject = new MyObject();
o.label = label;
o.data = data;
return o;
}
}

Hi list...

How do you duplicate an object {bool:true, val:5} in another variable
without pointing to the original one, and without having to create a
constructor.  In Director, there's a duplicate() method in Lingo.  Is
there an equivalent way to do this in Flash?

Something like this, but which would actually work:

var h = {a:true};
var g = h;
trace(h.a); // true
g.a = false;
trace(h.a); // false, but want to be true, so it's separate from g
object.

[Flashcoders] Advice on how to build a "click and drag" selector

2006-01-09 Thread Philip Isaacs

Okay i need some advice,

I'm about to begin on a project for work where a user has the ability to 
select
areas on a map by clicking and dragging his mouse over and area. When 
the person is finished
they will let go of the mouse button and a nice little square will 
appear on the map where they

have selected.

I'm have  a ton of experience making small flash applications, and some 
ideas on how to do
this already, but I thought this one time I would start by asking the 
experts on what the best approach to
how to do somthing like this would be. Instead of my usual process of 
starting an app, getting stuck,

and then running around and looking for help.

Also if people have any good tutorials or examples of similair apps that 
they can suggest that would

be a good start as well.

Thanks so much in advance.

yeah, i've heard about it -- great news :)
good decision, imho. why work on a version that will be outdated
shortly after release anyway?

some of the comments are a bit weird, though. i mean, i'm on 64bit,
too, but i'm very happy that they try to give me 8.5 with the new VM
as soon as possible. i guess i can live with a 32bit firefox for a bit
longer.

[Flashcoders] htmlText property doesnt work...

2006-01-09 Thread Jose Maria Barros
Can anyone tell me what wrong with this line?Sorry for my ignorance...

"tituloEmenta" is a variable that holds an XML attribute(in this case the
title of a recipe)

The problem is that the text is not formatted..he doesnt give the "brake"
and the font

_root.main.ementa_txt.htmlText = _root.main.ementa_txt.htmlText+""+tituloEmenta+"";


Thanks in advance

Re: [Flashcoders] Anyone knows good tutorials that relate to creating a dynamic text box that is updated with XML file?

2006-01-09 Thread eric dolecki
Use XML with some CSS and you should be good to go. Research on applying CSS
to text in Flash, and then research XML. As far as a tutorial, you should
google for "flash xml" & you'll find plenty to keep you happy. Also a book>
Sas Jacobs' XML for Flash (Friends of Ed) is good.

[Flashcoders] Internet Explorer crashing

2006-01-09 Thread Stephen Matthews

It's an issue which appears to be linked to Flash and IE on the PC.

I have the latest version of IE on the PC.
I notice that if I close my IE window down while using my Flash app  
IE crashes.


Is there a way to debug this or work out what Flash is doing so wrong  
to make IE crash.


Cheers

Re: [Flashcoders] Multiple Remoting Event Listeners

2006-01-09 Thread Paul BH
ok,
 so what you are asking here is how can I have two instances listen
out to an event dispatched from another instance and only respond if
it was the one that triggered the event (albeit asynchronously)

a quick solution would be to add a reference to the calling class in
the original call, and test for that in the return;

remotingClass.getInstance().getResults(this,someOtherData);

in the remoting class:

function getResults(originator,someOtherData){
  //make request


  request.onResult = function(){
 dispatchEvent({type:"aResult", originator:originator})
}
}

//in the listening class:
function onAResult(eventObj){
  if(eventObj.originator==this){
/do stufff
}
}

If you have flash player 8 then check this out about local swf security:

You'll probably need to export with "access network only".

Re: [Flashcoders] status bar humbug

The solution I am using is much the same as yours:

//JavaScript:
function displayStatus(theStatus){
var msg = theStatus;
window.status = msg;
}

Bear in mind though that this will not work in Firefox (and possibly
Safari - havent checked on a mac) - on these browsers, Javascript
cannot be used to change the status bar unless the user has
specifically allowed it...

[Flashcoders] XLIFF editors

2006-01-09 Thread Pauline McNamara

Hello,

I'm looking into using the Locale class for a multilingual app, and saw that it 
requires an XLIFF file for the translations. Does anyone have any tips on a 
simple XLIFF editor that I can recommend to the person doing the translations? 
Free or very cheap, and very simple to use would be the 2 big factors.


Or, if anyone has had good luck with a different format and a decent converter 
(would something like csv to xliff be too much to dream of?), it'd be great to 
hear that too...


Thanks and Happy New Year,

definitely test it -- early and often.

if you need it to be stand alone this would be the way to go. it
probably will work better than the linux plugin, and there is no stand
alone player for linux.
with flash 8 under wine there seems to be a problem with shadows, i.e.
they won't only go, say, to the bottom right but into all directions.

[Flashcoders] Multiple Remoting Event Listeners

2006-01-09 Thread Steven Sacks
I have a class that I'm using to make remoting calls.  When a result comes
back, it dispatches an event passing the result.

Sometimes, one of the remoting calls will go out to multiple listeners but
only the one who made the request should handle the result event, the other
will ignore it unless it was the one who request it.  What is the best way
to handle this?

[Flashcoders] Anyone knows good tutorials that relate to creating a dynamic text box that is updated with XML file?

2006-01-09 Thread Jose Maria Barros
Hello.

I wanted to know if there are a real good tutorial involving XML and a
dynamic text box.
The thing is that i wanted to do like an XML that has recipes.

I wanted to have the titles in a different color like( ingredients:) and
that when i insert a new recipe..the text box grows the height..to have more
and more recipes.

Thanks in advance..

[Flashcoders] Modified listbox component with dynamically loaded images. Not working :(

2006-01-09 Thread lists
 Hi all, hope someone can help me with this...

 I wanted to create a listbox which can show dynamically imported images
(thumbnails) as well as text. I may also go on to add buttons although thats
looking unlikely given the problems I have had so far...

 I partially followed the guide here:
http://www.macromedia.com/devnet/flash/articles/extending_components.html and
created a custom listbox item named FListBoxItem which extends
FSelectableItemClass. In the gui editor I put a spacer movie clip in to expand
the item to the height I require (probably not the best way to do this, but it
was quick and worked). I extended the code as in the guide above but without
the icon stuff with the happy/sad face. The display content function looks like
this:

FCustomItemClass.prototype.displayContent = function(itmObj, selected)
{
  super.displayContent(itmObj, selected);

  if (this.fLabel_mc.labelField.text != "")
  {
this.createEmptyMovieClip("thumbnail_mc", 1000);
this.thumbnail_mc._x = 2;
this.thumbnail_mc._y = 2;
this.thumbnail_mc.loadMovie("test_thumb.jpg");
  }
}

 The if statement stops it displaying images in empty items.

 The problem is that this works fine in it's own .fla file, with a listbox and a
bit of code to add items. But when I transfer this to the existing project which
I need it for it doesn't work. Instead of the images being displayed there is
just blank space (don't know whether they are not visible or not loaded). I
have been debugging this for nearly two weeks now trying to get it to work, and
this is what I have found so far:

- The listbox in my project is using the FCustomItem and the code is identical,
no problems copying it over and no problems with the symbol registration.

-The code in the new displayContent is being executed, can check it with a
trace().

- The thumbnail_mc movieclip is being created (well at least I can trace its
properties, like .getDepth())

- The file test_thumb.jpg exists (although if someone could tell me how to make
sure of this programmatically it would help to confirm this).


 I have no idea what the problem is. The application it's going into has few
distictive features that would affect the listbox code. It is a forms based
application and the listbox is placed on a form (e.g. Form1) which is currently
displayed and everything else I have on there works fine (video conferencing
type stuff).

 I'm getting desperate here so any help/advice/thoughts are really appreciated.
I've only been using flash for a couple of months so I could well have missed
something obvious to you guys.


Cheers

Kev

have you had a look at mtasc yet?
http://osflash.org/mtasc

with mtasc you can compile your code into an existing swf. the -keep
option is something you should have a look at.

hth,

RE: [Flashcoders] Flash 7 to 8 XML.load problem

2006-01-09 Thread Steven Sacks
Have you set an interval to trace your XML object to see if the XML even
loads on the Mac at all regardless of the onLoad method being called?

function traceXML() {
trace(myXML);
}
checkXMLInterval = setInterval(this, "traceXML", 1000);
myXML = new XML();
myXML.ignoreWhite = true;
myXML.onLoad = function(success) {
if (success) {
trace("xml loaded");
} else {
trace("error - xml not loaded");
}
};
myXML.load(somepath);

Try that and post your results.
