[Flashcoders] AS3 Noise (Audio) Filter?

[Eric E. Dolecki]

I'm looking for something to attempt to remove noise (or hum/hiss) from a
playing audio file in real-time.

Thanks for any pointers.

[Flashcoders] Projectors...

[Eric E. Dolecki]

Has anyone been able to generate a more current AS3 file as a projector?
I'm not talking about AIR or captive runtime, talking about the
old-fashioned projector for Mac? It's just gone from the IDE and the later
players have this greyed out.

[Flashcoders] sound.extract as visualizer?

[Eric E. Dolecki]

I've cracked Flash open again for some simulations and I am looking for
some code that will allow me to provide a visualizer per audio file as it
plays. computeSpectrum is out obviously.

Anyone have any code that can provide super-simple (say scaling a clip)
based on extracted values while the audio is played?

Thanks!

Re: [Flashcoders] AS3 read serial data over USB on Mac

[Eric E. Dolecki]

Is there an AIR native extension that can somehow directly allow me to
socket connect to a device over USB? That would be fantastic... would one
be required to use Flex to generate the AIR, or can it be a standard AS3
app?

[Flashcoders] simple 3d scene - move camera?

[Eric E. Dolecki]

Hey all -
I am looking for some starter code. Imagine stacks of sprites vertically.
You select a number and the camera moves up to that stack. This is 3d.

Does anyone have any quick code to get me rolling? I haven't done much 3d
in Flash and I'm not sure where to start quickly.

Thanks!

[Flashcoders] Question about SWC elements for use in Flex

Apologies but I haven't done any Flex in a few years and I am getting back
into it.

I created a FLA and then created some visual assets in the Library, with
Linkage names. I then published a SWC of these.

In my Flex app project I linked the SWC with my project. Then I try to call
the stuff up and place & I get an error:





TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert
Sphere@46b0179to mx.core.IVisualElement.

Re: [Flashcoders] scrolling webpage with flash

[Eric E. Dolecki]

I think I know what you want. Have your app calculate how high it
needs to be, then call out using javascript to a method which changes
the dimensions of a div, where your SWF embed is made at 100%. It can
keep calling that method. Just make sure your SWF has noScale, etc.
set within it. I've done this to generate charts that are a dynamic
height based on data to represent... the page will expand to
accommodate the div so your SWF never gets clipped.

If you're wanting to turn the CDATA into XML, I did a quick search for you

[Flashcoders] Question regarding Bitmap distorting bottom half of Stage elements

[Eric E. Dolecki]

Greetings all,

I made a quick post about something I'd like to solve and someone out there
might be able to help me.

http://imagineric.ericd.net/2011/06/16/question-bitmap-distorting-the-bottom-half-of-the-stage/

Here is a near copy and paste of the post describing the crux of what I am
after...

What I would like to do is to have a Stage with a DisplayObject or perhaps
several DisplayObjects – which can animate around.

When these objects pass a boundary (1/2 of the Stage height), I would like
to distort all those images by applying a Bitmap transformation… but only to
the portion that crosses that boundary.

The bottom half of the Stage would need to update itself constantly to
properly display the effect in real time. I’ve done some Bitmap things in
the past, but I am not quite sure what the correct approach for this might
be.

I’ve seen plenty of stuff where you can drag the corners of a photograph
around (
http://edvardtoth.com/flash/flashfun/basic-bitmap-distortion-using-triangles-and-uvs-source/),
but I’ve not seen where this could be applied to something like what I am
after. Without digging too deeply I think I just need to update the
BitmapData for the bottom Bitmap every frame – *but curious about the offset
stuff…*

I am looking for sage advice or even some code to get this rolling. If it
takes a while it might be interesting to see how you landed where you did
and how I approached the problem.

Thanks for any and all consideration.

- Eric

Thanks a lot for showing that to me - I managed to get something working
which is both quick and relatively cool. I don't ever do a pixel by pixel
explosion to save speed, smallest I go is 2px segments, but it's very quick
that way and looks nearly as cool. I am working on the explosion physics at
the moment (instead of just coming out from the displayObject, working in
spirals, etc. for each piece).

Re: [Flashcoders] AS3 exploding and reassemble bitmap

[Eric E. Dolecki]

I don't need an animation package, a class that cuts a displayObject up,
disassembles it on a pixel-level basis, explodes it out, and then
reassembles the pixels of the displayObject in a different location. If I do
this myself it's going to take a lot of time, looking for something out
there that can do this already.

[Flashcoders] Quick Q about matrix3D

[Eric E. Dolecki]

I saw this AS3 and found it pretty compelling.

I am wondering if it's possible to add one more handle on the left and right
and update the recalc code to allow for corners and also points on the
sides...

http://wonderfl.net/c/sxQJ

I think I could just hack 2 more handles and add the new code into the solve
method, but wondering if someone's done that already and I could just paste
it in :)

Re: [Flashcoders] Getting Data into my SWF

[Eric E. Dolecki]

Perhaps you could send the string data in some coded way that your Flash
code can decode and use properly. Nothing is going to be fool proof however.
Come up with your own little scheme... a 1 = A, 2 = B, etc. (probably want
something tougher than that though :))

How are you going to handle time zone, etc? Or is this going to be on
computers whose location is known?

[Flashcoders] hitTestPoint & mc with transparent PNG

[Eric E. Dolecki]

I've done this before but it's been ages.

I have a MC on the stage and would like to perform hitTestPoint on it. The
MC contains a PNG with transparency. I'd like for the transparent regions
not to figure into the hit detection. Looking at bitmapData.

Whats a good little bit of code to do that detection with in a
MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE ?

[Flashcoders] PS3 Move and AS3?

[Eric E. Dolecki]

The Kinect camera is quite cool and useful for certain things. After playing
with it for a while I am wondering if the PS3 Move system may be a more

PS3 and AS3 hacking, but I haven't found anything of substance yet. Has
anyone seen anything in the community in this regard?

I think only the classes you actually implement from a SWC get compiled into
your SWF - but all would be available for use. Just link the SWC up for the

Re: [Flashcoders] Re: Distribute some audio classes as SWC?

[Eric E. Dolecki]

You won't see it in your Library, but it will be linked so when you compile,
it's all available to you.

Re: [Flashcoders] Re: Distribute some audio classes as SWC?

[Eric E. Dolecki]

Yup - just add the SWC to your FLA or project and the classes should be
immediately available for your use.

[Flashcoders] Distribute some audio classes as SWC?

[Eric E. Dolecki]

I have about 5 pieces of original music in the form of MP3s that I use a
ton. Normally I would import them into my Library, give them a class name
and call them up in my document class. However I'd rather be able to stuff
them into a SWC and access them. I'm googling now, but how can I do this? I
haven't made a swc in about 4 years.

Re: [Flashcoders] CS5 where to put tween engines etc?

[Eric E. Dolecki]

Keep one spot someplace where you keep all your packages (yours and 3rd
party). Then link to them there. If you want to use SVN, use that same spot.
Keeps things uncluttered. For project work where you have lesser-importance
or lesser-reusable code, slap those in your project directory to keep your
main location solid.

Re: [Flashcoders] Help with addChild

I don't think this is enough code... myPopout extends Sprite or MovieClip or
something?
What if in your other class you did this:

var myPopout:myPopout = new myPopout(e.target,this.btnNum,this.cityList);
addChild(myPopout);

?

I don't think we know enough about what you are doing...

[Flashcoders] AIR - the About Box

[Eric E. Dolecki]

I am curious about the default About Box that comes up in OS X... can this
be customized in any way? Right now it's app icon, title, version &
copyright information. One could always make their own native window and use
that from a control within the application, but if someone uses the
Application Menu to do the about - you get that default About Box.

Can this be customized - or can the About "app" be hijacked to provide a
custom native window somehow?

Thanks for your time,
Eric

[Flashcoders] AIR tooltips (outside app container)

[Eric E. Dolecki]

Forgive the noobness of this request... I haven't seen anything in Google
and I thought I had seen this before.

I am authoring an AIR 2 app using the Flash CS5 IDE. How can I generate
OS-level tooltips from stuff in my AIR app (so they can appear at an
OS-level outside the AIR container). I could use regular tooltips or make my
app window larger than it would seem, but looking for OS-level hooks.

One could have the parent fire an init method to a loaded SWF. Then the
loaded movie would know that the parent was present. I believe.

Re: [Flashcoders] Question about approximate vowel detection in AS3

[Eric E. Dolecki]

I was able to match a single "a" - although even with a straight "a" there
can be some subtle variation. So I  mapped variations that come close and I
don't need to match every value in the complete waveform over time... every
couple together or even the first value with buffer comes pretty close. this
is with a known, unchanging vocal waveform. So I doubt this would be very
useful outside of this current system, which is a bummer.

I think it's time for me to retire this code and move on. Oh well...

Re: [Flashcoders] Question about approximate vowel detection in AS3

[Eric E. Dolecki]

I can get waveforms... but say "a" takes 1 second to speak. I get different
waveforms over that 1 second... so I'm not matching against a single
waveform, but many waveforms in succession. This seems like a tricky thing
to match against.

What might be a good approach to matching values over a certain amount of
time? Is AS3 fast enough to sync quick enough? I imagine it would need to
check for all vowels every frame matching values in waveforms over a certain
amount of time.

Re: [Flashcoders] Question about approximate vowel detection in AS3

[Eric E. Dolecki]

I've started implementing some code this morning in the hopes to match the
vowel "a" this morning. Of course there are several intonations for this
depending on the word it's located in, but if I can get a match on a naked
"a" I may be on to something. Like you said, I have a higher chance of
success since the voice is software generated and not from random people's
speech patterns.

If I don't get something today I'm going to bail on the engine in the hopes
of finding something useful some other time. This isn't a critical feature
for me as I have the jaw moving with precision and the effect comes across.
Mouth shapes would be the icing on the cake.

Re: [Flashcoders] Question about approximate vowel detection in AS3

[Eric E. Dolecki]

I think I might make waveform bitmaps and then try and compare against the
current waveform (block EQ) - and if it's a close match, then fire off
specific vowel events. If that works, I could do consonants too. If this
works, I'll do jumping jacks and shots of Jack.

So how would I compare two bitmaps to see if a waveform (

difficult to compare. It's the boiling down the signatures into something
simple and being able to read the playing audio looking for the match (or
near match). I thought about using bitmap data and trying to match up
waveforms, etc. but I don't know enough about it to pull that off. It seems
like a hack in a way, but if it worked, who cares I suppose.

Re: [Flashcoders] Question about approximate vowel detection in AS3

[Eric E. Dolecki]

I'm abandoning the whole vowel recognition unless I can find something
someone else has done to base my implementation on. I've burnt too much time
on it for something that won't give a whole lot of bang for the buck. It's a
very complex problem (for me anyway).

Re: [Flashcoders] Question about approximate vowel detection in AS3

[Eric E. Dolecki]

I've tried running software voice vowels through the system and I am able to
create "signatures" for the vowels that's somewhat accurate (depending on
how it's influenced in a word or if it's standalone). I've run them several
times and my values always seem to match (which is good). I end up with a
very long stream of numbers for a signature because of the enter frame. I am
wondering what the best way to compare the currents to over a period of time
to match known values might be. What's a fast/best lookup means to check
against?

For instance, a spoken "A" for me looks like this:

speech loaded
0.16304096207022667
0.16304096207022667
0.16304096207022667
0.16304096207022667
0.4167095571756363
1.840158924460411
1.840158924460411
2.3130274564027786
2.7141911536455154
2.7141911536455154
5.49285389482975
8.781380131840706
9.142853170633316
9.142853170633316
... TONS more data...

I don't think that's enough. Has anyone seen pitch detection in AS3 yet (no

It's using dynamic text to speech, so I wouldn't be able to use cue points

Re: [Flashcoders] Question about approximate vowel detection in AS3

This is a software voice, so nailing down vowels should be easier. However
you mention matching recordings with the live data. What is being matched?
Some kind of pattern I suppose. What form would the pattern take? How long
of a sample should be checked continuously, etc.?

It's a big topic. I understand your concept of how to do it, but I don't
have the technical expertise or foundation to implement the idea yet.

[Flashcoders] Question about approximate vowel detection in AS3

[Eric E. Dolecki]

I have a face that uses computeSpectrum in order to sync a mouth with
dynamic vocal-only MP3s... it works, but works much like a robot mouth. The
jaw animates by certain amounts based on volume.

I am trying to somehow get vowel approximations so that I can fire off some
events to update the mouth UI. Does anyone have any kind of algo that can
somehow get close enough readings from audio to detect vowels? Anything I
can do besides random to adjust the mouth shape will go miles in making my
face look more realistic.

Thanks for any insights.

Re: [Flashcoders] problem with import mx.controls.Alert

I used Google and found this that seems decent enough:

http://developer.yahoo.com/flash/astra-flash/alertmanager/

I am assuming that you like the fact that the Flex background is
blurred while the alert is being displayed. Is this true? If you
rolled your own, the stage is a MovieClip, so you could apply a blur
filter to it, or take a bitmap snap of it and blur that & place your
own alert sprite on top, or whatever.

Make a Flex app - Alert is for Flex. Or make your own Alert class. I'm

Re: [Flashcoders] FDT4 or Flash Builder 4

It pairs nicely with Flash CS5... do your UI stuff in the IDE and have the
project live in FB4. It's a workflow with document class that I've been
banging on for a while and I personally like it a lot. The Flex stuff is a
bonus.

[Eric E. Dolecki]

ServerSocket is sweet - I just whipped up a nice AIR 2 socket server app and
then have a regular socket app talking back and forth with it. Rockin'!

Re: [Flashcoders] Two computers talking using AS3 Socket on same network

[Eric E. Dolecki]

I have my socket class written which dispatches custom events & two main
SWFs with their own document class implemented.

Is it possible to spoof another machine on a single Mac to get around
setting up another box and using a flash drive to push files around for
testing?

[Flashcoders] Two computers talking using AS3 Socket on same network

[Eric E. Dolecki]

I would like to have two computers running two different SWFs talk to one
another over a LAN (say both plugged into the same router). Is it as simple
as this?

Computer A
---
SWF makes a socket, uses B's IP address and an open port - reads and writes
from this socket


Computer B
---
SWF makes a socket, uses A's IP address and an open port - reads and writes
from this socket

Re: [Flashcoders] OT: PDFs, HTML5 and iPads

You said, "Aside from the breadth of the App Store, there really isn't any
advantage that iPhone has over the Android 2.1 phones."

My point was that iTunes is a pretty compelling conduit for the iPhone. Do
Android phones have such a thing?

Re: [Flashcoders] RE: PDFs, HTML5 and iPads

[Eric E. Dolecki]

I have seen developers push a PDF document into a UIWebView (super easy and
it does work), but a better way of getting PDFs to display on an
iPhone/Touch/iPad is pretty simple too in your own application (if you're up
to it).

http://www.random-ideas.net/posts/42

I thought I read something long ago where the actual display technology for
OS X (and perhaps iPhone)  is PDF - but I cannot find any links to that at
the moment.

Just some random tidbits,
Eric

[Flashcoders] AS3 URL existence validation

[Eric E. Dolecki]

Hey all,

I am trying to validate whether or not a file exists on a server. Normally
this is easy peasy.

urlLoader = new Loader();
urlLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, urlLoaded );
urlLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR,
onUrlLoadError );
urlLoader.load( new URLRequest( xml.projects.project[nwhichprojec...@url ));

However, I have URLs that appear like so: http://www.somelocation.com/foo/

The index exists but of course* I can't test for that* since one isn't
actually supplied in the URL. Is there any way to test for this, or do I
need to push on the XML supplier to specify the actual index file in that
attribute?
