Re: [Flashcoders] Book: Flash 8 reference?

2006-12-13 Thread Marshall MacGillivray

the Orilley flash 8 actionscript bible isn't a bad pick up either. There are
not many 'project' type tutorials in it either just a good reference.

I'd suggest the basic reference manuals from MM press: AS2.0 Language

If you're looking for a bleeding edge O'Reilly book, the AS3.0
Cookbook is available. An OOP AS3.0 book is in beta and available on-
line.

 Hi,

 I hope all is well. ;)

 This book was a good purchase:

 ActionScript for Flash MX: The Definitive Guide, Second Edition
 http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/actscript2/

 Can someone point me to a similar book, but more recent?

 Most FP8 books I have found, are more geared towards project-based
 examples... that is good, but sometimes I just do not need all of
 the extra bloat... A cut-to-the-chase type book (like above, but
 more recent) would be cool.

 Any suggestions would be great. Off-list replies are welcome too. :)

 Cheers,
 Micky

Re: [Flashcoders] ListBox component, get Data (2nd Value)?!

2006-09-02 Thread Marshall MacGillivray

When i have to add more than one data i like to use objects rather than
arrays like so


var obj:Object = new Object();
obj.name = foo;
obj.age = 18;
obj.weight = 500; //lbs pretty big !

lista.addItem ({label:Shown on list,data:obj});

// then to get the data.

age = lista.selectedItem.data.age;
name = lista.selectedItem.data.name;
isFat = (lista.selectedItem.data.weight  300); //boolean


Array's work too but i find objects easier to read but that's may just be.

AFAIK, addItem takes only the label and ONE data element.

To save 2 data elements into the data part, you can make an array with
both
the values, and add that array as the data.

Like this:

lista.addItem(categorias[n + 1], [categorias[n + 0], categorias[n + 3]])

Now, to access the second element, you can access it as

lista.sellectedItem.data[1]

 Need a tiny help here folks,

 I have a listBox which i am inserting items with one label and two
values
 of
 data in it.

 Like this:

 lista.addItem (categorias[n + 1], categorias[n + 0], categorias[n + 3]);

 Now, how can i get the value of my data (2nd one) ?!

 At first i haded only one value in the data and was doing this:

 foto = _root.categoria1.lista.getItemAt (z).data;  (which was (is)
 working,
 but now i need to had another value, how can i get the second one?)

 Thanks,

Has anyone ever set either of the above two up for server side encodeing and
what was the result/workflow.

I'm having trouble finding server side encodeing information and would just
like the workflow for setting one up the most efficient way. I'm using
windows server 2003 and i'll be displaying them using Flash Media Server 2.

Does anyone know what google video and youTube use? -- I imagine it's On2
but it may be something else with the On2 plug in.


thanks a million.

Re: [Flashcoders] mpg to FLV

2006-08-31 Thread Marshall MacGillivray

This seems like a pretty neat solution that would save on bandwidth and
server processing power... it's basically a browser plugin that uses the
users cpu to encode the video and hence no server side encoding. Could be a
good solution for alot of problems... i just emailed them regarding price (i
bet it will be ridiculously high).  Any guesses on what a licence for this
would cost?
