[Flashcoders] OT: Adobe Air Marketplace

2010-07-15 Thread Karim Beyrouti
Sorry for the OT post - however i was just wondering what your experiences with 
the Adobe Air marketplace have been like?

I have added an item on there about two weeks ago, and it's still not approved. 
The Adobe site says it takes about 2-3 working days to approve apps - but have 
read reports of apps taking about 2 months to get approved. Anyone know what's 
the deal with the approval process ?

Cheers

[Flashcoders] Video encoding service

2010-07-15 Thread Mattheis, Erik (MIN-WSW)
We have a client need to allow users to record their own podcast with their 
webcam but don't want to shell out for Flash Media Interactive Server. 
Thoughts, recommendations? Link to thread in archive? Options we're exploring -

Red5 - con: no longer supported
Wowza server - con: server apps must be written in Java

Researching encoding services

nimbb.com
userplane.com
ankoder.com

Any others?

RE: [Flashcoders] Video encoding service

2010-07-15 Thread Mattheis, Erik (MIN-WSW)
We use encoding.com for other things, but I don't believe it can do what we 
wish here: We need to grab the video from a website visitor's webcam, send the 
video to a server - preferably ours - to be served on demand later. Make sense? 
(thought ankoder.com does this, it doesn't.)

Am I missing something? I know how to capture a bitmap from a webcam and send 
it to the server with no special server software. Can one do something similar 
for a video without FMS, Red5, Wowza or a subscription service that uses one of 
these?

2010-07-15 Thread Karl DeSaulniers
You might want to try mjpg-streamer if your capturing stills of the  
frames of the webcam and just need to reserve them.
You can implement mjpg-streamer to do such I believe. I found it when  
I was doing a similar search.
Its an older technology, but royalty free unlike other codecs. Might  
be your solution, might not.

I am as new to it as you would be, but it looked promising.

[Flashcoders] Help with addChild

2010-07-15 Thread J.C. Berry
Dear Group,
I wondered if I could bother you a minute with a simple question. I have a
document class that extends MovieClip, but my problem arises when I  use
addChild to add some popups (movieclips) to the stage. They are only visible
when I attach my popups to an on-stage button:
mystagebtn.addChild(mypopup) but I get nothing when attaching using
addChild() or this.addChild or this.parent.addChild   What reasons can there
be for my clips not being visible?  As I said, my document class does extend
MovieClip and I have searched for a few days now and reading on the doc
class has not given me an answer. I wouldn't even mind a reference to a
tutorial that could help me. Thanks.

  It's not bad at all, especially for your first class. I didn't go

  might give you problems:

   CityNum = i;
   var DynaBtn = root['city'+CityNum+'_mc'];
   DynaBtn.gotoAndStop(1);
 
 
  
 DynaBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER,DynaBtnRollOverHandler(CityNum));
   DynaBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT,DynaBtnRollOutHandler);
 
  First, you are going to have only one DynaBtn variable--the last one
  declared in the for loop. Each time you create an instance, it
  overwrites the last one. Fortunately for you, it works, but it won't
  always.
 
  The second issue is adding an event listener from outside the object.
  DynaBtn.addEventListener() will add the listener to the button, but
  you won't be able to remove the listener from outside the button.
 
  Instead, you should have a DynaBtn class, and add the listener in the
  constructor. Then you can remove the event listeners when you clean
  up.
 
  This applies, of course, to all the buttons you created.
 
  Nice job overall, though.
 
  Cordially,

Re: [Flashcoders] Help with addChild

2010-07-15 Thread Deepanjan Das
Hi,
I think the stage has not yet been initiated, hence the addChild is not
working.
Try to get hold of the stage first and then so an addChild.

if(stage){

}else{
 addEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE, onAddedToStage, false, 0, true);
}

private function onAddedToStage(e:Event):void
  {
   removeEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE, onAddedToStage);
addChild(...);
 }
Hope this helps.

Warm Regards
