Re: [Flashcoders] flash and Arabic
I once emailed Kevin Lynch and the guy generously replied with this: Hi Yehia- Thanks for your note. Right-to-left text support in Flash Player is an important feature, and we know it would be a key addition to the platform. Implementing this feature to deliver the right quality is a fairly big undertaking -- and we also need to factor in cross-platform support, maintaining the stability of the player, and keeping the code size small. All requests for new features are investigated using these same standards as we prioritize features for each release. Product Management is aware of the need for right-to-left text support. Although we cannot provide an exact date for when it will be supported, it is definitely under evaluation. thanks Kevin Flash supports unicode, it just isn't RTL supportive. Furthermore to this issue, if you try to use arabic, you won't be able to get a proper text wrap. There will be compatibility issues on different Windows versions and between Mac, worth saying backward compatibility with older Flash players that knows not of unicode. I seriously hope Adobe 's involvement will be beneficial.

try using undocumented setTimeOut or setInterval instead
say you have a function foo

var interval_ID:Number=setInterval(this,foo,2)
function foo()

clearInterval(interval_ID);

Re: [Flashcoders] Re: attachMovie vs createClassObject
createClassObject is defined in UIObject core object. I don't think it can be called as a method of any movieclip. It also requires that you define static var symbolName : String = linkageID; static var symbolOwner : Object = com.myclass; and at the end of the day It calls createObject which basically uses attachMovie passing on the symbolName. Use it if your host mc is a UIObject (inheriting from mx.core.UIComponent or mx.core.UIObject). I use var myInstance:ClassType=ClassType(mc.attachMovie(ClassType.symbolName ,instanceName,depth)) Sometimes, if there is any pending code in the draw method of the created class instance, I wait for a frame using doLater. I hope this helps Yehia Shouman On 3/23/07, Andy Herrman [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Just to amend my previous comment, in the case where I said `createClassObject()` failed but `attachMovie()` didn't, that ended up to be not quite true. `createClassObject()` didn't do anything, but `attachMovie()` created the visual portions of the clip, but it looks like none of the component's code was actually loaded, so while it appeared to be working it really wasn't. But in the cases where one works the other seems to work as well, so I'm still wondering what the difference is. -Andy On 3/20/07, Andy Herrman [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I'm wondering if there are any significant differences between using `attachMovie()` and `createClassObject()` for creating components (I'm targeting for Flash 7). I just ran into a weird issue creating a ComboBox where I was using `createClassObject()` to instantiate it, but saw that elsewhere in the code it was using `attachMovie()` to create one, and both were working. Specifically, both this: mc.attachMovie(ComboBox, myComboBox, mc.getNextHighestDepth()); and this: mc.createClassObject(ComboBox, myComboBox, mc.getNextHighestDepth()); seems to give the same results in most cases. Is there any benefit to using `createClassObject()` over `attachMovie()` for components? The one situation I ran into where it gives different results is when using multiple SWFs from different places. I have a main movie which loads another movie that contains all the UI resources (makes branding easier). The UI resources movie contains the ComboBox in its library. If both the movies are on the local filesystem then it works fine, but if the resources SWF is on a remote web server the `createClassObject()` call fails. However, if I change it to use `attachMovie()` it works fine. So I'm leaning towards using `attachMovie()`, just to make my life easier for testing (don't have to upload the main movie every time I want to test it), but I'm wondering if that will cause issues later. -Andy ___ 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@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] FLV Encoding at 640x480 Frame dropping

Does anyone know what exact encoding settings for a movie with a lot of motion, to play fullscreen at that resolution without stalling and dropping frames ? I am streaming over FMS, got the latest updates for FMS, FLVPlayback and Flash Player. I know FMS drops frames when the bandwidth is insuffiecient, and I know it favors Audio then netstream calls and then it may drop video frames based on whats left of the bandwidth. But if I even encoded at 640x480 with NO audio at all it still drop frames, we're currently using On2 VP6. Should we try Sorenson ? Any ideas PLEASE help !

You can fix your minor issue by going to the publish settings and beside the dropdown list of the actionscript version, click the button beside it, I dont have flash installed on my machine. So you need to click this button and select to export your code to frame 2. then make ur preloader in frame 1, and leave frame 2 empty, then put ur stuff in frame 3 make your preloader jump to frame 3 when all loaded, and Good luck !

Re: [Flashcoders] 2nd rtmp video doesn't play
Hi,
1. Switch between indexes if you have alot of sequential movies to play
2. use doLater if you're building on top of mx.core.uicomponent or a
setInterval() with 100 milliseconds and a clear Interval to kill it again
3. Make sure you get the latest FLVPlayback component update
4. I am streaming through FMS and I get the same problem, make sure the flvs
are not corrupted ..etc
5. check the following example, and make sure after you create allow a frame
to pass so that the draw methods of the flvplayback component are done
drawing.
6. MAKE sure you're not assigning an undefined value or a bad link, it
breaks up the thing !! you'll have to use a catch/try if you're not sure or
if statement before you assign.
Here's some code, see if that helps
function createFLVPlayback()
{
this.my_FLVPlybk = FLVPlayback (this.attachMovie (FLVPlayback,
my_FLVPlybk, 500));
this.my_FLVPlybk.autoPlay=true;
this.my_FLVPlybk.activeVideoPlayerIndex = 1
this.my_FLVPlybk.visibleVideoPlayerIndex = 1
this.my_FLVPlybk.progressInterval = 001;

*2nd Video Doesn't Play!*
--
Hi. I'm trying to play two videos in the flvplayback component. The first
one is playing; the second isn't. Both paths are rtmp paths. I've read on
various message boards that you should remove the .flv extension from the
second path, but that doesn't help.
In my move, the component is called flvPlayer. There's a button called
btn.
What's wrong with this code?
//these first two lines work fine.
flvPlayer.load(rtmp://path/to/media1.flv);
flvPlayer.play();
btn.onRelease = function():Void
{
//this doesn't work
flvPlayer.load(rtmp://path/to/media2.flv); //I've also tried without the
.flv
flvPlayer.play();
}
When I click the button, the first flv does stop playing, the skin on the
flvplayback component shows those little barber-pole stripes as if it's
loading a second flv, and then the loading animation stops. And that's it.
No video plays.
Just to be clear, everything works fine if both videos come from http
urls,
but if they come from rtmp urls, only the first video plays.

What you need to look into is FMS server side actionscript, to catch the stream and save it to publish from the client: http://livedocs.macromedia.com/fms/2/docs/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/html/wwhelp.htm?context=LiveDocs_Partsfile=0575.html then save it http://livedocs.macromedia.com/fms/2/docs/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/html/wwhelp.htm?context=LiveDocs_Partsfile=0789.html#116659 Hope that helps Yehia Shouman On 12/24/06, hongrizhao [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: if i know the rtmp address, how to record the flv to save ? hongrizhao 2006-12-25 ___ 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@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
Re: [Flashcoders] FLVPlayback question...
Hi,
1. Switch between indexes if you have alot of sequential movies to play
2. use doLater if you're building on top of mx.core.uicomponent or a
setInterval() with 100 milliseconds and a clear Interval to kill it again
3. Make sure you get the latest FLVPlayback component update
4. I am streaming through FMS and I get the same problem, make sure the flvs
are not corrupted ..etc
5. check the following example, and make sure after you create allow a frame
to pass so that the draw methods of the flvplayback component are done
drawing.
6. MAKE sure you're not assigning an undefined value or a bad link, it
breaks up the thing !! you'll have to use a catch/try if you're not sure or
if statement before you assign.
function createFLVPlayback()
{
this.my_FLVPlybk = FLVPlayback (this.attachMovie (FLVPlayback,
my_FLVPlybk, 500));
this.my_FLVPlybk.autoPlay=true;
this.play_btn._visible= !this.my_FLVPlybk.playing
this.pause_btn._visible=this.my_FLVPlybk.playing
this.my_FLVPlybk.activeVideoPlayerIndex = 1
this.my_FLVPlybk.visibleVideoPlayerIndex = 1
this.my_FLVPlybk.progressInterval = 001;
voloff_btn._visible = false;
play_btn._visible = false;
}
function switchToAnotherPlayer()
{
i=i==1? 2 : 1;
k=i==1? 2 : 1;
my_FLVPlybk.closeVideoPlayer(i);
my_FLVPlybk.ncMgr.close();
my_FLVPlybk.getVideoPlayer(my_FLVPlybk.visibleVideoPlayerIndex).ncMgr.close();
my_FLVPlybk.activeVideoPlayerIndex = k;
my_FLVPlybk.visibleVideoPlayerIndex = k;
}

I've had similar problems and struggled for weeks to solve them. I
found that in general, FLVPlayback is much more reliable with RTMP
streams than HTTP.
Another thing to mess with is the visiblePlayerIndex and
activePlayerIndex properties. Instead of playing one file right after
the other in the same player, switch between a couple of player
indexes. I think this approach works a bit better.

I've got an instance of the FLVPlayback in an app that is getting sent

It's not working 100%, as every so often it decides it doesn't want to
load that requested video.
What's a better way of using one FLVPlayback object that reloads video
requested? Birthing a new instance each and every time?

There's no special effect or complicated streaming from FMS. I
downloaded it's flv file and put in my flash. If you scale the video
50%, or anything less than 100%, you will get the aliased effect (are
u sure it's an effect?), if you scale it back to 100%, the thing shows
normal. Wouldn't be hard to figure out what code they are using.

If you want to, in the frame that you are looking for you can put a

Even if you do that or use onEnterFrame you may not get what you want

delete it after its purpose is no longer needed

Re: [Flashcoders] __DATE__ or similar in AS2 ?
I think the JSFL offers a great solution if you can have a command to publish which will alter a variable __DATE__ (perhaps a counter) on the root of the swf before calling publish document.

EKA,
I've been really confused by the garbage collection and how it sometimes
sits their coldly not doing the job ! I read somewhere the garbage
collection won't fire unless the application is in a still state. In an
application, that I had some interval process happening, the garbage
collection never worked and the memory usage kept going up. I've watched a
presentation by G Skinner, read some articles, but never found a way to fire
that garbage collector other than minimizing the application (and that works
in IE, it doesnt with firefox). So its an act of anxiety ! Can you point us
to links where the garbage collection work ?, Perhaps with a new message

[Flashcoders] Remoting Issue
Hey People/Remoting Experts, I am using mx remoting (the actionscript 2.0 version) with fash 8, calling ColdFusion method(s) over remoting . For some unknown reason(atleast to me), when the Flash app runs in any browser (Firefox/IE), it just keeps on growing in memory (The process of firefox.exe kept going up from 30MBs to 450MBs), and I can't figure out why. I traced down every setInterval/onEnterFrame/Event dispatch in my code, reduced memory usage by 40% to reach the 30MBs however it is still going up. I tried publishing the app to a projector and its working with no reported slow downs. One of my components use setIntervals to load a banner info every 5 seconds from CF over remoting, but i traced that one as well, it's not over calling. I also found another developer with almost the same problem here http://www.sephiroth.it/phpBB/showthread.php?t=2394 Does this have anything to do with the Garbage Collection process failing to fire ?

Re: [Flashcoders] Flash video multiple streams...
If I think of doing this, I'd do it using the following ways: 1. if I have Flash Media Server (Streaming method) Use it with server side actionscript to server streaming video, with server side actionscript to play the first 10 seconds, and I'd catch with the progress listener on an unskinned FLV player that the movie has reached the first 1 second, thats when I'll pause the video, until I rollover it thats when I need to play it again 2.If I dont have flash media server Using a FLV slicing thumbnail creator, like FLVKnife, with a little server side script code to created the shorter videos on upload, and another tool to extract an image for a thumbnail, bearing in mind that usually on users videos, the first 10 seconds may include titles, or black screens (Mr. X presents), You know the users love to get cool with their home made videos, so a progressive load wont be of equal quality to this solution, Also this solution will help you with the 1 by 1 sequential loading technique, for you're to load only what you'd show (I recommend this one) 3. (Progressive loading) If I dont have flash media server and I hate to waste my time on server side scripting but I can bear performance issues, I'd have multiple unskinned instances of the FLVPlayback, and i'd catch using the progressive listener the first frame (frames per second/playHeadTime) and pause, and when rollover happens play (and create a new listener waiting for the 10th second to restart video again), and on Rollout restart and pause Hope if this doesnt help atleast would highlight some other possible solutions or act as thought provoking to the other list members Regards Yehia Shouman [EMAIL PROTECTED] --- On 10/25/06, Jason Ross [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, I have a problem where multiple video streams, which are slowing a page down (download time) ... see here: http://www.fotoko.com/?str=1N%3D%2A%5C%3BKLP6R%3DT3%5BB%2E1R%0Dpy%1B The video does load ... eventually, and then works fine on subsequent visit due to caching ... my issue is with the loading times on the first visit.

So, I'd like to be able to write a function that when invoked with the targetPath of the flash object to be clicked, would be able to simulate a mouse click on that object as if a user had actually clicked it. I should also mention that the technique needs to work with arbitrary 3rd-party flash movies (so I don't have control to change the code). The simplest thing to try is just to try to invoke the onPress/onRelease callbacks on the target object. This works sometimes. However, in some cases it doesn't quite simulate a real mouse click. In particular, I seem to have trouble simulating clicks on components (in a List component, for example, the selected row will get highlighted but the handler that does further processing and refreshes the UI doesn't seem to get called). Currently I am (sort of) working around this by getting the coordinates of the center of the target object and using the Win32 api's to move the mouse pointer and simulate the windows mouse down/up events. As you can imagine this is not truly generic (doesn't handle scrollbars, movielclips obscured by other objects, etc). Any thoughts on this? Anyone with previous experience with this or ideas on a better way to generically simulate a click event in flash?

//xml will be available now because you have declared it above as a class
//private variable.
var node:Array = xml.firstChild.childNodes;
etc...
playFLV(test);
}
}
2) If you plan to not use that xml anywhere anymore, use this fast way, by
declaring a ref private variable inside the getFLV function scope which
points at the class.
private function playFlv(file:String){
trace(file);
}
private function getFLV(id:String):Void{
var xml:XML = new XML();
var ref=this;
xml.onLoad = function(ok){
if(ok){
var node:Array = xml.firstChild.childNodes;
etc...
ref.playFlv(test);
}
};
xml.load(id);
}
Good luck with both ways

Re: [Flashcoders] Multiuser A/V Chat Server ? Something .net ?
Thank you list, My Problem I have checked UserPlane and red5, but ultimately I would need a dotnet based server, preferrably .net I hope.

Re: [Flashcoders] Using a string to declare a function?
Try
this[a]=function()
{
trace(hi:+arguments);
}
or more neat
var newFunc= this[a];
newFunc=function()
{
}
and later on you can access the newFunc variable
or use this[a]();
you will only have to define that function in your class constructor (if it
is a component class) or any other function that is called automatically by
mx.core.UIComponent (CreateChildren/draw ...etc).

Re: [Flashcoders] saving bitmapData
In my humble opinion, I think you'll have to use an enterframe event Or setInterval with a bitmapData.getPixel(x,y) call, to retrieve the data from the bitmapData and then send that as a string using LoadVars class (with a flash parser class- when loading it back) or in XML format. Also check out AMF for a smaller sized packet sending. but I think there is no way you can dump the data from bitmapData other than the getPixel method which is unfortunately very slow.

Good question...
In my understanding - i.e. please correct me if I'm wrong! - when
testing objects for equality the simple and the strict equality operator
are completely interchangeable.
We are not comparing values, which can be of different types (and thus
provoke 'false positives' with the simple equality operator), but
references, which have a simple, 'binary' quality: either they do point
at the same place in memory or they don't.
And two objects - by definition? - always occupy two distinct locations
in memory, completely independent of wether they are of the same type
and contain the same values.
trace({} == {});// output: false
That's why I think that when testing objects for equality, the simple
and the strict oprator will always return the same result.

Re: [Flashcoders] BitmapData dump ?
Thank you Ralph, I think I'll use onEnterFrame with a progress bar showing the status of the saving process progress. It'll look a bit lame being slow, but if thats what we can do now then i hope it'll look ok the problem is that I am saving off 400x200 bitmapData instance multiplied by X layers !

Hi all, I just don't believe its true, so I thought I'd ask here as a last resort. Is there any way I could store or get the data inside the bitmapData instances ? I dream of a way I could save locally several bitmap layers. I wouldn't go for getPixel because its too freaking slow ! I don't know what use is it if we can't have it scan the bitmap quickly, is there a Dump bitmap data anything like this, something I could use to reconstruct the bitmapData instance when the flash movie runs again on the client's machine ? thanks for your help in advance Yehia ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
Re: [Flashcoders] ComboBox not firing change event when selectedIndex set
use this instead (attach ur function to an object)
var Listener_obj:Object= new Object();
Listener_obj.change=function(evt:Object)
{
trace(new Selected Index=+evt.target.selectedIndex);
}
myCmb.addEventListener(change,Listener_obj);
myCmb.selectedIndex=2;
the reason behind this, is that you can attach more than an event listener
to that Listener_obj and finally in 1 line of code use it with the combobox.
Good luck

Does not fire a change event. How do I detect when the combo box has
changed from code not from direct user interaction with the
component? This
seems completely stupid to me because the combobox WAS CHANGED so it
SHOULD
FIRE A CHANGE EVENT.

Re: [Flashcoders] Flash 8 statistics
http://www.macromedia.com/software/player_census/flashplayer/penetration.html shows that in June 2005 there were 645 Million users having installed the flash player on their systems, in Sep 2005 it increased to 663 Millions, 663-645=18 million increase over 2 months/60 days = 0.3 million, but i think 0.5 is an average over the whole era of flash.

Re: [Flashcoders] MM Scrollpane issue/constraint
Hi Martin try using myScrollPane_sp.setScrollProperties(1024,1,585,1); you might have to make that method public if it was private, check the ScrollPane.as class in your c:\documents and settings\[userName]\local settings\application data\macromedia\flash 8\en\configuration\classes\mx\containers its conceptual, but I think it could work ! try it good luck, Yehia Shouman http://www45.brinkster.com/chaoschaos/ On 1/10/06, Martin Baltzer [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, I am using the Scrollpane component in a flash 8 movie and it works fine. My scrollpane size is set equal to the Stage size everytime its being resized. If stage size gets below 1020*585 I've set it up to show the scrollbars because I know for sure that my content requires that minimum size. My question is: Event though the visible content area is 1020*585 the content itself may be way larger due bigger material that have been masked off etc, and then the scrollpane detect that size and scrolls way to much. When the scrollbars are turned on I only want to scroll up to max 1020*585 even if my content is 10 times that size. Is this possible and if not does anyone knows of another way to handle this without spending many days on building a new scrollpane component?
