Thank to both Andy and Jerermy
I've gone through your replies and the closest i've got so far
is:-
var arr:Array = Camera.names;
trace(arr[0]);
trace(arr[1]);
\\the output screen at this point returned the camera names which i
\\ added to the following lines.
localCamera1 =Camera.get( arr["Digital Camera"]);
localCamera2 =Camera.get( arr["Dual-Mode DSC (Video Camera)"] );
localVideo.attachVideo(localCamera1);
localVideo2.attachVideo(localCamera2);
This attaches the default camera to both videos again but now i have
the camera names returned as well, the other thing that is confusing
me is that you have both said to use Camera.getCamera(); instead of
Camera.get(); but it fails with the following error:-
**Error** Symbol=videoFeed, layer=Layer 1, frame=1:Line 4: There is no
method with the name 'getCamera'.
localCamera1 =Camera.getCamera( arr["Digital Camera"] );
**Error** Symbol=videoFeed, layer=Layer 1, frame=1:Line 5: There is no
method with the name 'getCamera'.
localCamera2 =Camera.getCamera( arr["Dual-Mode DSC (Video
Camera)"] );
Total ActionScript Errors: 2 Reported Errors: 2
And the cameras fails to load. Finally you mentioned version 9.0.16
admittedly i've only just upgraded to version 9 where can i get the
updates?
