[Flashcoders] Dynamically changing FLV framerate
Hi, Does anyone know a way to dynamically change the framerate of a FLV file? I want to simulate fast forward and rewind (with different speeds). I am able to change the framerate of the flash movie but that does not affect the FLV thats playing in the Video component :( Any suggestions please? -- sajid ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders

Why does Flash act the way it does? More information can be found here on the blog of one of the Flash Player engeneers: http://www.kaourantin.net/2006/05/frame-rates-in-flash-player.html Greetz Erik On 4/8/08, Cory Petosky [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: My buddy and I were playing with some performance benchmarks we wrote (put 100 bitmaps on the screen by manual blits to a backing BitmapData). We weren't surprised that it ran stably at 120 FPS in the Flash IDE. We were alarmed to discover, however, that the same SWF ran at a mere 80 FPS in the Flash standalone player and was just under 60 FPS when viewed in the browser.

Re: [Flashcoders] Restarting an Air Application
You could have an empty base movie (AIR) and load your main movie into it.

Re: [Flashcoders] Restarting an Air Application
or you can call an air app from within your air app (this can potentially be the same app) So what you do is: have A open and set it to alwaysinFront from A you call B close A bring B to front More info on this here: http://www.davidtucker.net/2008/04/01/air-tip-11-launching-an-air-application-from-an-air-application/ Cheers, Sidney On Apr 9, 2008, at 2:24 PM, Kenneth Kawamoto wrote: You could have an empty base movie (AIR) and load your main movie into it.

Re: [Flashcoders] Dynamically changing FLV framerate
Hi Sajid- I'd been searching for a way to do something similar. I suggest you take a look at this link: http://mrdoob.com/blog/post/504/ It might give you some initial direction.

Re: [Flashcoders] Dynamically changing FLV framerate
Depends on the length of your video, but might be more efficient to render the video at an alternative speed. Not exactly the same as your case, but this is especially better when doing something like playing the movie backwards, that is, do a separate and complete rendering of the movie that displays as if playing backwards. Maybe you might have luck along those lines. On Apr 8, 2008, at 11:17 PM, Sajid Saiyed wrote: Hi, Does anyone know a way to dynamically change the framerate of a FLV file?

[Flashcoders] animating into bitmaps data, recording stop points
I'm working on an animation of sorts that uses the Flash drawing api to draw into bitmapdata. At various intervals throughout the animation I want to record screenshots and be able to step back and view these various stages of the animation. The only way I can think of achieving this is creating copies of the bitmap data in memory and re-loading them into the scene as needed. Problem here is it would be very memory intensive if I want to record 20 or more screenshots. Any other suggestions? I could possibly re-generate the animation at the recorded stop-point each time but that would take possibly a few seconds to re-create the bitmap for each point. ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
Re: [Flashcoders] animating into bitmaps data, recording stop points
Maybe record your vector data / changes each frame, or similar, so that you can redraw the bitmaps if necessary. It's almost like an undo function; So for each bitmap you render, you would store the commands to draw it. You can make this even more compact by just storing the changes since the last render, although if you are storing loads of frames you may want to create a keyframe every so often that stores all the information needed to draw a bitmap without relying on previous frames. The keyframe thing is used in MPEG and other similar compression methods. Then you can render the bitmaps as normal, but only store the most recent. If you want to step backwards, you use the vector info to redraw the bitmap. Mick G wrote: I'm working on an animation of sorts that uses the Flash drawing api to draw into bitmapdata.

I didn't ask about opening up the AIR Bug System on Apollocoders.

[Flashcoders] Memory Issue
I have a Loader Object that is childAdded to MovieClip Container, and each
time the application needs, the loader loads a different image in it.
.
private var Photoldr:Loader = new Loader();
public function LoadPhoto():void {
var PhotoPath:String = String(DataArray[0].LocationMapLink);
var PhotoReq:URLRequest = new URLRequest(PhotoPath);
Photoldr.load(PhotoReq);
}
where LoadPhoto is called from an outside Class.
Would this mean that the Loader Instance is overridden each time and frees
up memory? Or I should null the Photoldr and recreate it again?
thanks
