Hi Alexander,
You can create a video symbol in the library by using the library's menu. As
for depth, have you tried putting the video in a movie clip and swapping the
depths of that movie clip? That should work.
By the way, ElectroServer 4 supports video as well (to add that to your
list). http://www.electro-server.com

Subject: [Flashcoders] Attaching webcam video dynamically and on top
Dear flash coders,
I have a MovieClip+class called User
which represents a player (one of 3)
in my small multi-player card game:
http://preferans.de/images/pics/Pref-Aug-07-2.jpg
It works well and usually displays
a player avatar (an image, that
I load by a MovieClipLoader).
If a player has a webcam connected
I'd like to overlay his avatar image
however by the webcam video.
I know that I have to use Red5 or FMS etc...
but currently I'm struggling with the basic
problem, that I don't know how to attach
a Video object dynamically to the stage.
After searching I even suspect, that this
is not possible at all and I can only do
it in the authoring environment (sans AS).
But even if I do it in authoring environment
(and pass its name as a string to my
user.attachWebcam() method), I still have
the problem, that the video is underneath
the avatar. I've tried:
_root.my_video.swapDepths(5000);
but this doesn't work. Any ideas please?
Here is a test case movie representing my
problem: http://preferans.de/flash/User.swf
Regards
Alex
