Re: [Flashcoders] php proxy

2009-02-08 Thread Hans Wichman
Hi Glen,

thanks, but I missing this part , allow me to specify which servers are
allowed to be proxied, and
maybe implement some kind of token mechanism making it a little harder to
call the proxy from just anywhere :)

Any other ones?

thanks!
JC

  Hi list,

 I'm looking for a good proxy solution to circumvent flash cross domain
 policies.

 Fact is I'm not a php geek and can't discern whether the google results
 I've
 found open up major security holes in my server.

 I;m looking for something that will allow me to proxy files from remote
 server, allow me to specify which servers are allowed to be proxied, and
 maybe implement some kind of token mechanism making it a little harder to
 call the proxy from just anywhere.

 Any ideas/resources would be appreciated.

 regards
 JC

[Flashcoders] bandwidth detection

2009-02-08 Thread Matt Muller
hi, anyone know any reliable and consistent bandwidth detection methods.

I am doing the download multiple images and average out the kbps but its
vastly inconsistent against speedtest.net and even against itself.

cheers,

why multiple images?  you could do it with one image; yet, it really 
depends on the stability of the host/isp/network, if the exchange 
throttles or caches information, etc.   Are you averaging from multiple 
hosts from different regions of the planet? if so, you may want to 
compensate for that too.


How are you tracking your percentages? just based on time to download 
the entire file that happens to have a rounded number like 8000Kb = 
1000KB = 8Mb= 1MB? or are you breaking it down into little 100ms chunks 
and then measuring the amount percentage downloaded  per that chunk and 
converting up?


you could also stick with just stick one file polled many times ?1   ?2 
?3...?1000


sometimes certain networks give preference to jpg vs txt vs mp3 vs

any more ideas? I only did  stuff like this in my spare time back in 
2004, so I am no expert.
