Greetings, all,
I'm working on a Flex project in the AIR platform which I want to
generate several different file sizes of JPGs that I've brought into the
program. The program locks up when generating the new JPGs, though, and
I understand that has to do with the single-thread model in Flash. I've
run across asynchronous encoders like the alchemy encoder
<http://segfaultlabs.com/blog/post/asynchronous-jpeg-encoding> and the
switchonthecode async encoder
<http://www.switchonthecode.com/tutorials/flex-tutorial-an-asynchronous-\
jpeg-encoder> . Any suggestions on this?
Also, I'll be uploading these different sized JPGs to a server. I guess
a more basic question would be if the server (a typical LAMP setup) or
the client (built in Flex+Air) is the better place to do this resizing?
Thanks for your time!
