[Flashcoders] Embedded Cue Points in an FLV stream
Hey guys, I have googled and searched the mailing list for an answer to this particular question with no luck. I am trying to see what are the optionbs out there for embedding cue point timing into an FLV. I know i can create an array of points and then associate it with a particular FLV but looking for something a bit more integrated. Any help would be greatly appreciated. BTW the target is Flash Player 8. The osurce is an On2 encoded stream coming out of vitalstream.

[Flashcoders] Delegating Events and AS2
Hi All!, wondering if someone can point me in the right direction. I am trying to find a ASBoradcast / Event Dispatcher light model for my app. Basically i have a number of MCs that will have to either react to events being broadcast or broadcast their own. I have Essential AS2 by Colin Moock. Trying to find something i can import and maybe pass scope to it, vs have my main class extend it. I've googled, searched the archived and exausted my more talented flash developer friends.

Re: [Flashcoders] Delegating Events and AS2
Thanks all for the feedback. I ended up using Joey Lott's Proxy class.

I am looking for a simple way to do it that works in a Class. without worrying about scope. Mine relies heavily upon scope. Anyone have any example?

For example... var xmlData = new XML(); xmlData.onLoad = function () { // gets invoked by the XML instance } So if you delegate the onLoad method, you get something like this: xmlData.onLoad = Delegate.create(this, xmlDataLoad); ... which is essentially what I am trying to do with my own classes. Another reason I like delegating events this way, is that the compiler will catch typos in the names of the event functions, so I am not searching around trying to figure out why a certain event is not firing. -Danro On Sep 26, 2006, at 7:06 PM, vic wrote: Hey Dan, I like the way you do it, its pretty simple. But here is, what probably will be an incredibly stupid question: How do I capture the event? Thanks, V I personally use an extremely simplified way of dealing with events. I've used EventDispatcher before, but it feels like overkill most of the time. I realize my method has no ability to multicast events, but it's quick, easy to read and gets the job done. Here's an example: ___ // WidgetManager.as import mx.utils.Delegate; class WidgetManager { private var _widget1:Widget; private var _widget2:Widget; public function WidgetManager (timeline:MovieClip) { _widget1 = new Widget(1, timeline.widget1_mc); _widget1.clickEvent = Delegate.create(this, widgetClick); // add event _widget2 = new Widget(2, timeline.widget2_mc); _widget2.clickEvent = Delegate.create(this, widgetClick); // add event } private function widgetClick (eventObj:Object):Void { trace(widget + eventObj.id + was clicked); eventObj.target.clickEvent = null; // remove event } } ___ // Widget.as import mx.utils.Delegate; class Widget { public var clickEvent:Function; // event method private var _id:Number; private var _buttonMC:MovieClip; public function Widget (id:Number, mc:MovieClip) { _id = id; _buttonMC = mc; _buttonMC.onPress = Delegate.create(this, buttonPress); } public function buttonPress ():Void { clickEvent({target:this, id: _id}); } } On Sep 26, 2006, at 12:09 PM, Sean Scott wrote: Hi All!, wondering if someone can point me in the right direction.

I have been using video in Flash since it was first introduced. So I will tell you what I know from my experience. I agree with Bjorn. The website he suggests is a great resource. I will also point you to a website that allows you to make a side by side comparison of codecs and bitrates. http://www.flashvideofaq.com/ IMHO, the On2 Flix Flash8 encoding solution will give you the best quality. If you have a lot of videos, then you will definitely want Sorenson Squeeze with the On2 codec plug in. For a connection speed of 1mb I would recommend 872 kbps bit rate for the video and for the audio 44100Hz sampling rate and 128kbps bit rate. Video size 720w 480h or less. Encode with 2pass VBR for progressive download or 2pass CBR for streaming. The quality of the source video will have the greatest impact on the quality of the output video more than codecs or bitrates. So focus on that as much as you can.

Re: [Flashcoders] Text to MP3
Not sure about a company that offer those services although i am sure there are ones out there. But you can basically create that yourself by looking into SOX (soundExchange) and LAME. Both are open source / freeware utilities that run on both windows and linux/unix. They will require some work on your end to get there. Hope this helps On 3/26/07, iestyn lloyd [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hey list, Does anyone know of an easy way to convert text to mp3 on the fly?

I guess the other possibility is finding some component to install on my own server, but this might not be possible... any ideas anyone?

Re: [Flashcoders] Issues with Limelight/Streaming Video
