Swift is just generating the polygon ,odel and textures. In order to add
interactivity you're still going to need a 3D engine like Papervision. imho
if you're going to take this approach you'd be better to use a 'real' 3D

your users the choice as to whether they want to see the content or
not. Also, some email clients automatically block the display of
images - I'm assuming SWFs will be the same? What if the user has
downloaded their emails and is viewing then offline? What if they
don;t have FlashPlayer (or the right version of it) installed...So
many variables, so much potential to alienate your target market.

Re: [Flashcoders] Seek bar not working with FLVPlayback Component?

2009-07-30 Thread Peter B
You can't. Setting cue points for time based navigation inserts a key
frame. You can only seek to key frames. It's all covered in that
article, specifically:

"Specify the type of cue point you want to embed. You can embed either
a navigation or event cue point.

 * Event cue points are used to trigger ActionScript methods when the
cue point is reached, and let you synchronize the video playback to
other events within the Flash presentation.


 * Navigation cue points are used for navigation and seeking, and to
trigger ActionScript methods when the cue point is reached. Embedding
a navigation cue point inserts a keyframe at that point in the video
clip to enable viewers to seek to that point in the video.

Note: Adding additional keyframes can lower the overall quality of a
video clip. For this reason, navigation cue points should only be used
when users will need to seek to a particular point within the video."

The accuracy is pretty much dependant on the density of keyframes in
your FLV, as you can only seek to a timecode with a keyframe. This
though is absolutely accurate.

If your FLVs are of any lenght, and if they have audio, you are likely
to run into difficulties wrapping them in a SWF.

Re: [Flashcoders] NetStream time and seek

2007-08-16 Thread Peter B
Right! Now I understand, thanks ;)

The reasons why you can't do this have been comprehensively covered by
others now, and you are right, it's a result of how the vidoe is
encoded. If the video is 10 seconds long and it seeks to to end there
must be no keyframes in the body of the video.

You still have a couple of possible options, depending on more
specifics for your project:

If you have access to the source video, and always know where you want
to seek to, you can re-encode the video, making sure you have actual
keyframes at the times you need to seek to. For most projects this
isn't practical.

Another option is to re-encode with regular (say every half second)
keyframes. This gives you a more granular level of control. You could
of course make *every* frame a keyframe, allowing you exact access to
every frame's timecode, but this will make your FLV filesize
unacceptably large.

Or, if you don't need your seek to *exactly* the same timecode every
time, you can seek to the keyframe before it, capture and display a
bitmap of that frame using the BitmapData class, keep the video
playing under the bitmap, using an interval to check the position of
the video, stop it as close as possible to the desired time and remove
the bitmap that was hiding the video...

Re: [Flashcoders] as3 mask leaks scale of hidden area!

  Is this normal?


Yep. It's always been this way too, rather than this having been
introduced in CS3.

Re: [Flashcoders] OT - OT FLV Encoder Tools / tips

2007-06-11 Thread Peter B

   Are there any 3rd party compressors better suited to this that people
can recommend?


I prefer Sorenson Squeeze (don't be misled by the name - it can also
encode to On2 VP6)

http://www.sorensonmedia.com/products/?pageID=1#ppc2

I'm guassing you are currently using the encoder that ships with
Flash? What settings have you tried?

Re: [Flashcoders] [OT] - Job Posting

2007-05-30 Thread Peter B

Hi JC.

In the sense that the person required will be working under a senior
programmer.

Whilst they will need a good knowledge of AS 2 and XML, they won't be
responsible for defining the architecture of projects, and will pretty
much be told what is required of them, rather than having to devine
this from a project requirements document. They will always have
someone to refer problems upwards to, and to learn from.

That said, perhaps the original text of the offer is somewhat
misleading - I think there is supposed to be a full stop rather than a
comma between "HTML" and "MDM Zinc", which significantly alters the
expected skill set I think...

Best

Pete

Hi Peter,

just curious, but reading through what you are looking for, in what respect
does "relatively junior" come in?

[Flashcoders] [OT] - Job Posting

2007-05-29 Thread Peter B

I am posting this on behalf of a colleague. I think the position would
suit a (relatively!) junior developer, although, as the ad states, a
good knowledge of XML and AS2 will be essential. The position is for
immediate start, and (initially at least) will run until year end.
