I don't want to attach my Camera to video, but to netstream. The aim is to detect video presence on netstream. For that i have to do camera on/off Actually I am publishing my camera live on netstream to FMS server. Even if i do my_video.visible = false, the video will keep publishing as long camera is on( capturing ). I cant touch the netstream as i am using same stream for other things ( text, arrays, objects, audio etc). Using separate streams for separate things is costly affair. I think logically also that I should actually stop camera/video capturing when users says so instead of toggling the visibility of UI.
Here is my toy code, though its not commented properly, i think it is easy to understand. I am detecting video presence by watching currentFPS of netstream. *<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" layout="absolute" creationComplete="connect();"> <mx:Script> <![CDATA[ import mx.controls.Alert; import flash.net.NetConnection; import flash.net.ObjectEncoding; import flash.events.AsyncErrorEvent; import flash.events.NetStatusEvent; import flash.net.NetStream; import flash.media.Camera; private var nc:NetConnection; private var RTMP:String = "rtmp://localhost/testNet"; private var out_ns:NetStream; private var in_ns:NetStream; private var my_cam:Camera; private var my_video:Video; private function connect():void { nc = new NetConnection(); nc.objectEncoding = ObjectEncoding.AMF0; nc.client = this; nc.addEventListener( NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS, netStatusHandler ); nc.connect( RTMP ); } private function netStatusHandler( event:NetStatusEvent ):void { switch( event.info.code ) { case "NetConnection.Connect.Success": buildComponents(); break; default: Alert.show(event.info.code.toString()); trace(event.info.code); } } private function createNetStream():void { out_ns = new NetStream( nc ); out_ns.client = this; in_ns = new NetStream( nc ); in_ns.client = this; } public function initMyVideo():void { my_video = new Video(230,160); my_video.x = 10; my_video.width = 230; my_video.height = 160; my_video.y = 30; this.rawChildren.addChild(my_video); } private function publishIt():void { my_cam = Camera.getCamera(); out_ns.attachCamera(my_cam); out_ns.publish("mycam","live"); } private function playIt():void { my_video.attachNetStream(in_ns); in_ns.play("mycam"); } private function showIt():void { Alert.show(" video in:" + in_ns.currentFPS + " out:" + out_ns.currentFPS); } private function buildComponents():void { createNetStream(); initMyVideo(); publishIt(); playIt(); } private function cameraOn():void { my_cam = Camera.getCamera(); } private function cameraOff():void { my_cam = null; } ]]> </mx:Script> <mx:Button x="277" y="62" label="ShowCurrentFPS" click="showIt();"/> <mx:Button x="277" y="92" label="Camera ON" click="cameraOn();"/> <mx:Button x="277" y="122" label="Camera OFF" click="cameraOff();"/> </mx:Application>* On Jan 24, 2008 8:48 PM, Sherif Abdou <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > just pass a null parameter, i think but i never use a camera class > before > myVideo.attatchCamera(null); > > > ----- Original Message ---- > From: Tom Chiverton <[EMAIL PROTECTED]<tom.chiverton%40halliwells.com> > > > To: [email protected] <flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com> > Sent: Thursday, January 24, 2008 8:48:23 AM > Subject: Re: [flexcoders] How to turn off camera ? > > On Thursday 24 Jan 2008, YOGESH JADHAV wrote: > > i mean how to stop capture > > Would your application just stop showing the 'I'm watching you' GUI ? > > -- > Tom Chiverton, who's never done anything with Camera > > **************************************************** > > This email is sent for and on behalf of Halliwells LLP. > > Halliwells LLP is a limited liability partnership registered in England > and Wales under registered number OC307980 whose registered office address > is at Halliwells LLP, 3 Hardman Square, Spinningfields, Manchester, M3 3EB. > A list of members is available for inspection at the registered office.
