Re: Re: [Flashcoders] Progressivelly download (and show) a jpg image
Please people, update your facts, since Flash Player 8, Flash can dynamicly load progressive jpgs, along several other image formats as stated in a previous message.. Yet I don't know if Flash can be triggered to show the image displaying progressivly, In my experience when I just do a simple loader with a MovieClipLoader, it is displayed after it is completely loaded, not a second before :(. good luck, Joeri On 7/2/06, Marlon Harrison [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I may be wrong, but I think the only way to achieve that effect is to simulate it once the image is completely loaded. When you see jpg's load in progessively - it's because they're encoded that way. Flash can't load progressive jpegs.

Re: [Flashcoders] [Ann] Tonight: World's Largest Flex Application
I'm relatively certain if there are 1 or 2 aussie coders interested in this they'd be signed up to other lists where the information would be more readily available. This list is global, and as Sydney has a developers group, they should have a list of their own. Sorry, but this is the second time i've seen this event advertised on this list and once is more than enough thanks. This falls back on previous list arguments about what content is proper here to keep the noise to a minimum, and on that note, my opinion is stated, and i'll leave it at that. - Andreas Nick Weekes wrote: I disagree.

RE: [Flashcoders] AS3 - why no properties in interfaces?
Hi Sascha, But it's still beyond me why property support wasn't added. It can be such a complex thing but would make OO life a good amount easier. You are refering to Java but defined fields in java are implicitly static finals and need to be initilized within interface, so, you are not missing that much in AS3 anyway. Also, bad habit of java programmers is to use interfaces as container of constants, which, saves them some typing (although with static imports in 1.5 version it doesn't make any difference). -m ___ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com

[Flashcoders] LocalConnection to multiple swfs
If I've got several swfs running locally (through Director), can they all connect to the same LocalConnection object? I'm having a lot of problems getting this working in one-to-one connections because LocalConnections seem to be asynchronous, and it occurs to me that having a simple pair of connections running continually in all objects might be easier (and faster) than trying to open and run them one by one. To explain a bit more clearly the structure I'm trying to achieve, I have a main data-holding swf we'll call Data, and a bunch of data-displaying swfs we can call Display1, Display2 etc. Once initialised, I need to tell each Display to go and get data from Data. My original idea was something like this: 1) open ToData connection in Data 2) open FromData connection in Display1 3) run getData in ToData, requesting data for Display1 4) run setData in FromData, returning the data to Display1 5) close FromData connection in Display1 6) repeat 2-5 for each Display 7) close ToData connection in Data Unfortunately, because the process is asynchronous, this method was closing connections before the results have been received. (It's complicated further by the fact that I'm actually running multiple getData requests for each Display swf). I've tried various variants but they all have problems. My best idea was simply to leave ToData and FromData open continually, and pass an id number with setData and getData to route the messages appropriately. But it seems that each LocalConnection.connect() command disconnects the last. I'm rambling a bit - I guess I'm looking for some general advice. Can anyone suggest a cleaner or more appropriate approach?

[Flashcoders] problem downloading files via flash.net.FileReference from subdomain
i have setup a subdomain like mysubdomain.domain.tld.
now i want to download Files via flash.net.FileReference which works fine on localhost but
not on deploy server. the error is the path to the file. the server prepends a local path to
the subdomain which is like:
/hsphere/local/home/domain/subdomain/
which is correct, cause the subdomain is routed to a folder which is called
like the subdomain.
here's my as-code:
CODE
function downloadNext (item) {
var file:FileReference = new FileReference ();
file.addListener (downLoadListener);
NetDebug.trace (Download parameter: + item); // traces fine, just
the filename no path!
file.download (item);
}
/CODE
to listen to the events, i have an objectListener like:
CODE
downLoadListener = new Object ();
//
downLoadListener.onSelect = function (file:FileReference):Void
{
trace (onSelect: + file.name);
NetDebug.trace (onSelect: + file.name);
};
downLoadListener.onCancel = function (file:FileReference):Void
{
trace (onCancel);
NetDebug.trace (onCancel);
};
downLoadListener.onOpen = function (file:FileReference):Void {
trace (onOpen: + file.name);
NetDebug.trace (onOpen: + file.name);
};
downLoadListener.onProgress = function (file:FileReference, bytesLoaded:Number,
bytesTotal:Number):Void {
trace (onProgress with bytesLoaded: + bytesLoaded +
bytesTotal: + bytesTotal);
NetDebug.trace (onProgress with bytesLoaded: + bytesLoaded + bytesTotal: +
bytesTotal);
};
downLoadListener.onComplete = function
(file:FileReference):Void {
trace (onComplete: + file.name);
NetDebug.trace (onComplete: + file.name);
NetDebug.trace (fileList.length: + fileList.length);
if (fileList.length 1) {
downloadNext (fileList[0]);
}
};
downLoadListener.onIOError = function (file:FileReference):Void
{
trace (onIOError: + file.name);
NetDebug.trace (onIOError: + file.name);
};
downLoadListener.onHTTPError =
function(file:FileReference):Void {
trace(onHTTPError: + file.name);
NetDebug.trace (onHTTPError: + file.name);
}
downLoadListener.onSecurityError = function(file:FileReference,
errorString:String):Void {
trace(onSecurityError: + file.name + errorString:
+ errorString);
NetDebug.trace (onSecurityError: + file.name +
errorString: + errorString);
}
/CODE
the funny thing is, that the onSelect gets called, when downloadNext is invoked but no
onHTTPError or else.
anyone to shed some light ?

I will be creating this as a desktop application. I have already written in C++ a controller interface for the xbox 360. I now need to get the video into the application.

The Flash Player doesn't support the RTSP protocol (neither RTP, RTCP which are usually also required for proper RTSP) and it doesn't support decoding MPEG4 Video. So, currently there is no way for you to play such a stream natively in the player and I doubt it will be coming anytime soon if ever. The only other option would be for you to try to layer a quicktime player (if that player supports the version of mpeg4 your camera provides) or some media player on top of the Flash interface and have them communicate to each other, which essentially means you would fake the displaying of the video within Flash. My guess is you are trying to do this within a browser, if you have the option of distributing this application as a desktop application you might want to look into some methods of embedding media player within a desktop application or take a look at 3rd party projector tools which some will allow you to do this more easily if you have no experience in writing desktop applications HTH Chafic http://www.atellis.com blog: http://www.rewindlife.com On Jun 30, 2006, at 4:45 PM, Wade Arnold wrote: I have a desktop application that I am working on that has one camera that it connects at: rtsp://127.0.0.1/livefeed I have scoured the web and do not see any way of natively accessing this stream from flash.

[Flashcoders] Re: Programmatically instantiating a class that extends MovieClip
As a variant on the __proto__ method (which I gather is what the compiler
actually uses behind the scenes anyway) I also bundle the code into a static
method
Class A {
...
// dynamicMc (no library symbol) will be added and subclassed to mcSubClass
dynamicMc:MovieClip = McSubClass.addInstance(baseMC);
}
class McSubClass extends MovieClip{
function McSubClass {
//empty constructor
}
function init(){
//initialize mc - add dynamic graphics etc
}
static function addInstance (base_mc) {
var newMc;
var nd = base_mc.getNextHighestDepth();
newMc= base_mc.createEmptyMovieClip(mcSubClass+nd,nd);
newMc.__proto__ = new McSubClass ();
newMc.init();
return newMc;
}
}
maybe mc.__proto__ == MyClass.prototype (below) is better than my
newMc.__proto__ = new McSubClass ()
my method (i picked up on this list) does have the side effect that the
constructor can't initialize the mc, hence the separate init call after the
__proto__ / constructor; all wrapped in one method so I don't forget

That's exactly what I mean. As a result you can do cool things like
reparenting -- like moving a button from one window to another. It
handles the MovieClip creation itself.
A code example really isn't too easy, because the framework that
allows this to be possible is quite large. If you were really
interested, you could look at the code. Here's a link:
http://tinyurl.com/jqtwv
It's a gigantic class...so it might be difficult to work through. The
important method is createMovieClips(), which is called when a view
(the type of object that encapsulates movieclips) moves to a new
superview.

Why not subclass object instead? Both ActionStep and ASwing work this

So you never really subclass movieclip, you use composition instead.
In

Is that what you mean, or am I missing the point? Can you give a
small
code
example?

[Flashcoders] Error: class being compiled does not match...
The project I'm working on has several packages, each with several classes.
One package in particular compiles fine and everything works as expected and
if I run 'Check Syntax' everything checks out fine. But, if I try to 'Auto
Format' the code of one of the class files (just one of the classes in this
package - all others seem fine), I get the following error :
**Error**
/Users/temp/Desktop/20060626/Flash/com/something/somethingelse/MPUpdate.as:
Line 6: The class being compiled, 'com.something.somethingelse.MPUpdate',
does not match the class that was imported, 'MPUpdate'.
class com.something.somethingelse.MPUpdate {
The class I'm trying to Auto Format is:
com.something.somethingelse.MPView
I've googled the error. Livedocs has this to say about the matter:
(This error occurs when a class name is spelled with a different case from
an imported class. For example, compiling class mx.com.util generates error
1166 if the statement import mx.Com appears in the util.as file.)
I've checked, re-checked and re-checked this and am sure this is not the
case (why would 'Check Syntax' check out OK if this was the case?).
I've deleted the ASO files - no luck.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Adrian P.

Re: Re: [Flashcoders] exporting dynamic swf art to other apps
I actually ended up solving this problem from the other direction. It seems
that there's no magic bullet solution from within Flash or the player so I
tried a different tack and found that I can script Illustrator using
JavaScript. I'm sure many people know about this but it was news to me. In
about an hour I was able to transcribe my AS to JS and recreate my Flash
composition in Illustrator. It executes much slower than Flash, but now I
can take my composition to other mediums.
If any body's interested, here's an introduction to Illustrator scripting.

without any of this information.
Also, you might find you get better result printing as .ps files,
Illustrator will like them more than pdf but it still won't solve
your
problem, sadly.

Subject: [Flashcoders] exporting dynamic swf art to other apps
Hey all,
I'm generating art in actionscript that I need to export from my
swf
and
bring into Illustrator or Photoshop for final tweaks before
sending
it
out
to a large format printer. I know you can export from the IDE
but
since
everything I'm using is dynamic I can't use those functions.
My current best method is to print the swf to a pdf from the
player
and
open
that pdf in Illustrator. Unfortunatly I lose all my alpha and
filter
data in
this process, and since I might have 1000 or more instances in
my
export
those values are nearly impossible to recreate. I've tried
adjusting
the
pdf
settings but I haven't found the right combo yet.
Does anybody here know of a method to export still frames (I'm
not
trying to
export video or motion here) from the swf in a vector format?
This issue has been nagging me for quite a while now, and I
haven't
found
any tutorials or tips online on how to do it. I'd really
appreciate
any
feedback from this forum. Thanks a lot.

RE: [Flashcoders] Re: Programmatically instantiating a class thatextends MovieClip
I've tested the following a while ago and it works perfectly.
It uses the acme ClassUtilities class.
MovieFactory:
import com.acme.ClassUtilities;
class nl.debit.util.MovieFactory {
private static var instance : MovieFactory;
public static function getInstance() : MovieFactory
{
if (instance == null)
instance = new MovieFactory();
return instance;
}
private function MovieFactory()
{
ClassUtilities.registerPackage();
}
public static function
createMC(target:MovieClip,id:String,className:Function):MovieClip
{
if (instance == null)
instance = new MovieFactory();
if(!className.symbolLinked)
{
var classPath:String = ClassUtilities.getPath(className);
className.symbolName = __Packages. + classPath;
className.symbolLinked =
Object.registerClass(className.symbolName,className);
}
return
target.attachMovie(className.symbolName,id,target.getNextHighestDepth());
}
}
MyClass:
class MyClass extends MovieClip{
public function MyClass() {
beginFill(0x00);
moveTo(0,0);
lineTo(100,0);
lineTo(100,100);
lineTo(0,100);
lineTo(0,0);
endFill();
}
}
Then use in your code:
var mClip:MovieClip = MovieFactory.createMC(_root,test,MyClass);

Bernard

Onderwerp: [Flashcoders] Re: Programmatically instantiating a
class thatextends MovieClip
As a variant on the __proto__ method (which I gather is what
the compiler actually uses behind the scenes anyway) I also
bundle the code into a static method
Class A {
...
// dynamicMc (no library symbol) will be added and subclassed
to mcSubClass
dynamicMc:MovieClip = McSubClass.addInstance(baseMC);
}
class McSubClass extends MovieClip{
function McSubClass {
//empty constructor
}
function init(){
//initialize mc - add dynamic graphics etc
}
static function addInstance (base_mc) {
var newMc;
var nd = base_mc.getNextHighestDepth();
newMc= base_mc.createEmptyMovieClip(mcSubClass+nd,nd);
newMc.__proto__ = new McSubClass ();
newMc.init();
return newMc;
}
}
maybe mc.__proto__ == MyClass.prototype (below) is better
than my newMc.__proto__ = new McSubClass ()
my method (i picked up on this list) does have the side
effect that the constructor can't initialize the mc, hence
the separate init call after the __proto__ / constructor; all
wrapped in one method so I don't forget

That's exactly what I mean. As a result you can do cool
things like
reparenting -- like moving a button from one window to another. It
handles the MovieClip creation itself.
A code example really isn't too easy, because the framework that
allows this to be possible is quite large. If you were really
interested, you could look at the code. Here's a link:

It's a gigantic class...so it might be difficult to work through.
The
important method is createMovieClips(), which is called
when a view

superview.

Re: [Flashcoders] ServiceCapture or Charles?
Service Capture has a 15 day trial, so I would start with that. I use Service Capture because it does a great job with Flash Remoting traffic. It lets you drill into the nested data, even displaying things correctly if there duplicate references to the same object. It tells you the data and data types, and is generally pretty usable. With VERY large Remoting messages it slows way down when trying to display the message, and basically locks up. I am usually able to reduce the message size to find the bug I'm after. I doubt this would be an issue for many people... I have big messages with lots of cross references. One watchout: Service Capture acts as an HTTP proxy. On startup and shutdown, it configures MSIE's proxy settings. This generally works well. But if Service Capture is shutdown prematurely, it will leave MSIE with bad proxy settings. It will appear that 'the internet is broken' ;) You need to restart Service Capture or reset the proxy settings in MSIE to fix this. This is something to keep in mind if using a local proxy server.

Well, you could define variable in each star instance and give up a
fadeSpeed whereby it's -5 or +5. This way the one will decresed or
increased by two. Example:
test.alphaSpeed = +5;
test._alpha = 0;
test2.alphaSpeed = -5;
test2._alpha = 100;
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
test._alpha = test._alpha + test.alphaSpeed;
test2._alpha = test2._alpha + test2.alphaSpeed;
}

Re: [Flashcoders] 50 stars blinking... app gets too slow
Well, what you do is you add +5 or -5 to the current _alpha value.
Meaning you will increase or decrease the current alpha value by 5. It's
like writing instance._alpha = instance._alpha - 5 (or + 5). Of course,
you can use some sort of loop to update all movieclips/stars i.e:
var starsCount = 50;
var i =0;
while ( i starsCount ) {
var currentStar = _root[ star + i ]._alpha ;
currentStar._alpha = currenStar._alpha + currentStar.alphaSpeed;
i++;

To: 'Flashcoders mailing list' flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com Message-ID: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii I will be creating this as a desktop application. I have already written in C++ a controller interface for the xbox 360. I now need to get the video into the application. My thought was to use zink or some other 3rd party projector but all them seem to only allow you to load a local file not a url for the stream. Thanks for your insight. Back to google I go! Wade Actually, one really neat thing about the new FlashLite2 is that you can play raw mpeg4/qt and h series streams DIRECTLY into the Flash player as long as your phone/PDA has the codec/driver. I did a POC of this on a Nokia phone for a real time, per minute billing solution. So, in a way, it IS possible to play native video (Real Player works as well on Pocket PC etc). This is a special build of the player I know, but maybe there is a way to leverage it still for what you are trying to do. We streamed the movies with a Flash app in about 5 lines of code from a Darwin Streaming Server running on Debian. (the phone was mpeg4 ready) -Ken -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Chafic Kazoun Sent: Friday, June 30, 2006 7:04 PM To: Flashcoders mailing list Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] RTSP in flash? The Flash Player doesn't support the RTSP protocol (neither RTP, RTCP which are usually also required for proper RTSP) and it doesn't support decoding MPEG4 Video. So, currently there is no way for you to play such a stream natively in the player and I doubt it will be coming anytime soon if ever. The only other option would be for you to try to layer a quicktime player (if that player supports the version of mpeg4 your camera provides) or some media player on top of the Flash interface and have them communicate to each other, which essentially means you would fake the displaying of the video within Flash. My guess is you are trying to do this within a browser, if you have the option of distributing this application as a desktop application you might want to look into some methods of embedding media player within a desktop application or take a look at 3rd party projector tools which some will allow you to do this more easily if you have no experience in writing desktop applications HTH Chafic http://www.atellis.com blog: http://www.rewindlife.com ___ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com

Re: [Flashcoders] 50 stars blinking... app gets too slow
Hmmm... looking better at this loop, I don´t think it would do the smooth
fade-in/fade-out I would like to achieve. I guess the best solution still is
animating this fade-in/fade-out using the flash IDE and then do a play() in
the script. I would have only to add a line of script in the last keyframe
of the star animation to make it loop.

Re: [Flashcoders] 50 stars blinking... app gets too slow
A method I've often used to get around this kind of processor hogging is to
set it up that only, say, 10 stars are animating at any one time (i.e. only
10 have onEnterFrame handlers set or even better, following Weyert's
suggestion, update only 10 at a time using a single onEnterFrame handler).
As with Weyert's suggestion, the speeds that each star animates is random
and, as each star finishes it's cycle, you randomly select another star to
animate through one 'twinkle' cycle. I find this approach gives a really
natural feel to the effect as well.
I'd also echo Scott's observation that it could well be the _alpha blending.
Flash gets tired really quickly when you give it alpha calculations and, the
bigger the area of the screen it is making alpha calculations on, the
quicker it gets tired!

[Flashcoders] x/y values for text character
Flashcoders,
I am looking to find x/y values for a single character in a text field.
Anyone know of a solution?
quote_arr = new Array();
quote_arr.push({note:Flash is fun!});
var theQuote = quote_arr[0].note;
theText.text = theQuote;
//first 4 lines set the theQuote = Flash is Fun!
var index = theQuote.indexOf(F);
trace(index of D: +index); // output: 0
if(index=17){
d_drip._x = theText._x + (10*index);
}else{
d_drip._x = theText._x + (10*index);//position on line 2
d_drip._y = d_drip._y +55;//down a line

trace(d_drip._x: +d_drip._x);

RE: [Flashcoders] 50 stars blinking... app gets too slow
Following Weyerts suggestion to update all stars in 1 onEnterFrame.. Here is
a little demo (150 stars): http://www.debit.nl/flashcoders/stars.html
This is the code, just place it in the first frame and make a MovieClip and
export it for AS with the name star
var starCount:Number = 150;
var stars:Array = new Array();
var alphaSpeed:Number = 5;
for(var a:Number = 0 ; astarCount ; a++){
var tmpStar:MovieClip =
this.attachMovie(star,star+a,this.getNextHighestDepth());
tmpStar._x = Math.random() * Stage.width;
tmpStar._y = Math.random() * Stage.height;
tmpStar.alphaSpeed = (Math.random()0.5?1:-1) * ((Math.random() *
alphaSpeed) + 1);
stars.push(tmpStar);
}
onEnterFrame = function(){
var i:Number = 0;
while(istarCount){
stars[i]._alpha += stars[i].alphaSpeed;
if(stars[i]._alpha = 0){
stars[i]._alpha = 0;
stars[i].alphaSpeed *= -1;
}
if(stars[i]._alpha = 100){
stars[i]._alpha = 100;
stars[i].alphaSpeed *= -1;
}
i++;
}
}

Re: [Flashcoders] Problems with IE starting a sound stream.
Is your server sending the data with Content-Length set in the header or
as Transfer-Encoding: Chunked? Flash up to version 8 in IE doesn't seem
to play audio loaded using loadSound unless the header has
Content-Length set. Flash 9 seems to work most of the time, but slows
to a crawl if the file being loaded is big (say, bigger than 15 MB).

Onderwerp: [Flashcoders] Problems with IE starting a sound stream.
I tried loading the flash player from several version of IE, the sound never
starts. I can play the flash on the same computer in firefox or standalone.
But the problem is not that it not geting the data, but not startign to play
the stream.. I use the following code.
-- code snip --
this.createTextField(message_txt, this.getNextHighestDepth(),
10,10,300,22)
this.createTextField(status_txt, this.getNextHighestDepth(), 10, 50, 300,
40); status_txt.autoSize = true; status_txt.multiline = true;
status_txt.border = true;
_soundbuftime=3;
var globalsound = new Sound();
globalsound.loadSound(http://ss1.gotdns.org:8000/test,true);
globalsound.start(true);
var my_interval:Number;
my_interval = setInterval(checkProgress, 100, globalsound); function
checkProgress(the_sound:Sound):Void {
var pct:Number = Math.round
(the_sound.getBytesLoaded()/the_sound.getBytesTotal()*100);
var pos:Number = Math.round(the_sound.position/the_sound.duration*100);
status_txt.text = the_sound.getBytesLoaded()+ of
+the_sound.getBytesTotal()+ bytes (+pct+%)+newline;
status_txt.text += the_sound.position+ of +the_sound.duration+
milliseconds (+pos+%)+newline;
}
stop();
--- End code snip --
The getBytesTotal and duration incresases, the getBtytesloaded and position
stay at 0.. My obsevation says the flash is geting the mp3 stream, yet never
starting to play it?
I am a newbie at codeing flash and useing this project to learn what i can
:)
