[Flashcoders] Re: Rotating a comboBox
Brandon, I'd suggest you look into making your own version of the combo box. A few movieclips and some dynamic Textfields... and you'll have your own version that does what you require it to do, and will be re-usable, probably coded in a more logical way. The flash components, in general, suck. especially the v2 components. There are so many problems. I really don't use them if i can manage without them. I suggest you do the same! Dan Styles.

Is there any easy way to have this appear rotated as well?

[Flashcoders] RE: FLVPLAYBACK COMPONENT
I had a problem like this recently Try without the .flv part... you may not need the extension when using Flash Media Server also check this: http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/webforums/forum/messageview.cfm?forumid=15catid=578threadid=1228512enterthread=y and this: http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flash/8/main/3495.html QUOTE: I recently went through this difficulty with Flash Media Server 2 (not the earlier FCS), in order to get the FLV Playback component to stream videos using FMS2 from another folder not under the default applications folder, you'll need to map a virtual directory by altering vHost.xml kept in this location: Flash Media Server 2/conf/_defaultRoot_/_defaultVHost_/vHost.xml In vHost.xml there is a tag VirtualDirectory and under that Streams. When you add a virtual directory to FMS2 you should add to the streams tag something like this: VirtualDirectory Streamsbar;C:\streams/Streams VirtualDirectory Then you'll need to add a folder under the default applications directory of FMS (or whatever custom applications directory you're using) with whatever name you choose (say for example foo), then make sure you place the main.asc for the FLVPlayback component which ships with Flash 8 in this new folder, you can find this main.asc file in the location given in the doc above. No streams should go in this foo folder, and no extra subfolders are needed here, but your streams (in this example) should be located at c:\streams Then when playing back a .flv (called, for example yourVid.flv) using the FLVPlayback component, the contentPath should be something like this: rtmp://localhost/foo/bar/yourVid.flv FMS connects first to localhost (or whatever IP the streaming server is located), then checks the app name foo,finding it, it then looks for a virtual mapping, if any, in this case bar, then finding the path mapped out in the vHost.xml to C:\streams it gets the flv file yourVid.flv from the folder c:\streams. END QUOTE YOU WROTE: I can't get the FLVPlayback component to display the streamed videos that are working fine with the MediaPlayback component. For the latter, I use setMedia(rtmp:/LT/myfile.flv) but there is no setMedia command for FLVPlayback, only contentPath, and setting it to the above doesn't work, nor did setting contentPath = rtmp://server address/LT/myfile.flv or rtmp://server address/LT/stream/_definst_/myfile.flv -- the video never shows up. Any suggestions?

[Flashcoders] Re: Flashcoders Digest, Vol 24, Issue 27
I bought this thing.. MultiPowUpload - from element-it.com - and it uses the Alert component.. yet nothing i seem to do to change the Alert window styles seems to work.. no idea why.. it seems they did some fiddling with the standard halo button code for some reason - would this affect the Alert window styling? so annoyed right now do i really have to open: C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\Local Configuration\Application Data\Macromedia\Flash 8\en\Configuration\Classes\mx\controls\Alert.as and then the movieclip names... create my own and export with the new names i used in the edited Alert.as ??? hope that made sense. grrr ___ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
[Flashcoders] Media Components, FLV and MP3
Hi there, I'm parsing an XML Playlist which can apparently have both FLV, MP3 and JPG files in it. I'm somehow expected to 'play' all of these media types. My first thought is to have an instance of the media display, FLV player and a movieclip for the jpgs and to use a switch case statement - i have a filetype node in the XML so i was thinking... dependent on the 3 letter extension - depends on which frame of the player clip i jump to and then load and play the media as needed? sound right? what would you guys do? thanks.

[Flashcoders] Trying my question again.. FLV/MP3 and components
Hi there, I'm parsing an XML Playlist which can apparently have FLV, MP3 and JPG files in it. I'm somehow expected to 'play' all of these media types. My first thought is to have an instance of the media display component, FLV player component and a movieclip for the jpgs - each on 3 different frames and to use a switch case statement - i have a 'filetype=BLAH' key in the XML so i was thinking... dependent on the 3 letter extension - depends on which frame of the player clip i jump to and then load and play the media as needed? sound right? what would you guys do? thanks.

[Flashcoders] Flash XML/CMS
Matt, why doesn't he make his own? It's not hard and would show off his skills as a designer. He'd be able to control design and functionality, would learn how to make a simple CMS (i use SQLPHPXML), he'd increase his value as a designer/developer, improve his skillset and would be safe in the knowledge that it was all his own work and could draw satisfaction from a job well done! It may not be as quick and is not the easy way out.. but its far better in my opinion. D.S A friend who is a designer is looking for a good, easy to use Flash based CMS/XML driven to show off work, can anyone recommend anything? thanks MaTT ___ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
