[Flashcoders] Colour Matching

2009-12-15 Thread 2lakes

Hi,

I have in the past and now on different projects - had trouble trying  
to colour match flash / bitmap content with
html / bitmap content. A current project uses sliced and exported  
jpegs with colourspace.
Some jpegs end up in flash and some in page divs. The flash jpegs are  
shades lighter than the div ones.

No compression in the library is applied.???

It is barely noticeable on a desktop mac but in a mac book it's very  
noticeable.

Can anyone point to discussion or  guess as to why this is so?
Cheers Ian

Re: [Flashcoders] flv problems, cpu usage

2007-06-14 Thread 2lakes





In firefox the CPU usage hovers around 60% which is acceptable,  
even though

it still seems quite high, for videos of 320x280 pixels. In internet
explorer though it is around 97% of the cpu and as a result the videos
stutter.




hi i have similar issues with firefox vs safari on some nested  
video's on my site.

Safari seems to refresh to screen much more efficiently than FF.
Also FF default cache size is  1 meg?!

Good analysis, gives me some things to consider.

Re: [Flashcoders] swfs taxing some browsers more than others?

Hi,

I am testing one of the sites I am working on at the moment for
browser compatibility and to ensure that all swfs (of which there are
many) play back fine and it turns out that there are significant
differences:

FireFox: 100% CPU usage
Opera: 75% CPU usage
IE Explorer (v6): 65% CPU usage

Has anyone got an idea why this is, and where to find out more about
these differences. Is there also a place that could offer comparisons
for all major browsers, as there are some I want to but can't test for
(notably the Mac varieties)

Thanks!

Re: [Flashcoders] swfs taxing some browsers more than others?

2007-04-20 Thread 2lakes

Hi,
My tests on a mac show that Safari,  Firefox and Flock all pretty  
well consume similar amounts of CPU.

With an average difference between the three of 10%
This figure is not reliable because the CPU fluctuated +/- 5%  
throughout the tests.


My results averaged.
Firefox 37%
Safari 42%
Flock  39%

These percentages are of the total CPU so they are a lot smaller than  
Nick's

If i look at Users graph only they look like Nicks figures ( ie 82% av )
there was always at least 50 to 60 percent idle and the rest reserved.

Anyway i found the variations between the browsers negligible.
BUT flash certainly draws a lot of CPU compared to static HTML which  
is about 0.4% of
