I don't have GoogleTalk plugin, actually I am not Google wavy, so I
have
nothing 'Google' on my mac. I don't even have Chrome installed. Just
tested
in Safari and it didn't work.
I do get the same 'camera.muted' status with Safari (no dialog, just a
blank white screen)
always living across the border, under the mountains :) but had a baby,
a
baby from the mountains ;)
yeah started with basic code like that, you on a mac with googletalk
plugin
installed? i think it may have something to do with that. if you look
at
my
code the actual attahcing of the camera is the same. on chrome 14 i
get
one
Camera.muted from teh status event and then nothing. no dialog or
anything.
same behaviour being reported on macs (not got one here).
just outside rome these days man, you across the border in the
mountains
still?

hey ya tom!
still does not work :(
did you try the following overbasic code ? (works here)
var video:Video = new Video(640, 480);
var camera:Camera = Camera.getCamera();
camera.setMode(640, 480, 30);
video.attachCamera(camera);
addChild(video);

updated to include a dropdown of all camera's on the system, and a
button
to
kick them off with.
right now, if it only finds one camera it will attempt to attach it,
if
it
finds more than one it will wait for you to select which one you
want
to
use
and then click start webcam button.
this fails for me in chrome v 14, and i'm told on a mac in any

Hi Tom,

- 10.3.183.7:

{
var cam:Camera = Camera.getCamera();
if(cam == null){
ExternalInterface.call('alert', No Web Camera found!);
return;

}
}
if(index 0){
createCamera(index.toString());
}else{
createCamera();
}
}
private function createCamera( cameraIndex:String=null ):void
{
webcam = Camera.getCamera( cameraIndex );
webcam.setMode( cameraWidth, cameraHeight, cameraFrameRate, true
);
webcam.setMotionLevel(70, 2000);
webcam.addEventListener( ActivityEvent.ACTIVITY,
onCameraActivity, false, 0, true );
webcam.addEventListener( StatusEvent.STATUS, onCameraStatus );

Re: [Flashcoders] webcam wackiness...
hey cedric if you've got code that you think 100% works on everything send
it on and i'll put it up on the link. i thought that too :)
after googling i've found stuff about looping through character names and
attaching google cameras to video objects offstage, or pulling out the name
for the usb cam on a mac if on mac OS, or even just using index 2 for the
mac. all seem a bit hacky to me. this is somethign that has worked in flash
fine for a LONG time, that now appears to be broken. what's up?

Re: [Flashcoders] webcam wackiness...
hey ya tom!
still does not work :(
did you try the following overbasic code ? (works here)
var video:Video = new Video(640, 480);
var camera:Camera = Camera.getCamera();
camera.setMode(640, 480, 30);
video.attachCamera(camera);
addChild(video);
hth,

ps: still in Roma ?
http://46.4.226.29/camtest/
updated to include a dropdown of all camera's on the system, and a button to
kick them off with.
right now, if it only finds one camera it will attempt to attach it, if it
finds more than one it will wait for you to select which one you want to use
and then click start webcam button.
this fails for me in chrome v 14, and i'm told on a mac in any browser.

yeah started with basic code like that, you on a mac with googletalk plugin

Camera.muted from teh status event and then nothing. no dialog or anything.
same behaviour being reported on macs (not got one here).

Re: [Flashcoders] webcam wackiness...
anyone got any ideas why this script is failing on so many machines?

yes, it works
ok cheers for the testing, does the simple script work for you in a
browser?
2011/9/19 Cédric Muller flashco...@benga.li
I don't have GoogleTalk plugin, actually I am not Google wavy, so I have
nothing 'Google' on my mac. I don't even have Chrome installed. Just
tested
in Safari and it didn't work.
I do get the same 'camera.muted' status with Safari (no dialog, just a
blank white screen)
always living across the border, under the mountains :) but had a baby,
a
baby from the mountains ;)
yeah started with basic code like that, you on a mac with googletalk
plugin
installed? i think it may have something to do with that. if you look
at
my
code the actual attahcing of the camera is the same. on chrome 14 i get
one
Camera.muted from teh status event and then nothing. no dialog or
anything.
same behaviour being reported on macs (not got one here).
just outside rome these days man, you across the border in the
mountains
still?
2011/9/19 Cédric Muller flashco...@benga.li
hey ya tom!
still does not work :(
did you try the following overbasic code ? (works here)
var video:Video = new Video(640, 480);
var camera:Camera = Camera.getCamera();
camera.setMode(640, 480, 30);
video.attachCamera(camera);
addChild(video);
hth,
Cedric
ps: still in Roma ?
http://46.4.226.29/camtest/
updated to include a dropdown of all camera's on the system, and a
button
to
kick them off with.
right now, if it only finds one camera it will attempt to attach it,
if
it
finds more than one it will wait for you to select which one you want
to
use
and then click start webcam button.
this fails for me in chrome v 14, and i'm told on a mac in any
browser.

Re: [Flashcoders] webcam wackiness...
Dear Tom,
I recently developing an AR apps and my clients also face the same problem.
I asked them to update their flash player to 10.3.183.7
Check MAC flash player version by visiting the page -
http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
That solved the problem.
The probable cause for the same may be due to latest OS upgrade and flash
player upgrade.

I am having a number of issues with the Camera class. Most seriously, it crashes the browser on some computers when I call getCamera() or Camera.names.

Re: [Flashcoders] webcam video capture
[p e r c e p t i c o n] wrote: is there a way to capture web cam video straight into flash...not a single frame, but a few seconds worth? I'm assuming by straight into Flash you mean without recourse to a RTMP server such as Adobe's Flash Media Server or the open-source Red5 project as per the documented means. Assuming you're targetting Flash Player 8 or later, if all you want to do is capture bitmaps of the video feed across multiple frames, you can simply make bitmap copies of the video object displaying your local camera feed and save them to BitmapData instances on each frame (say, via an onEnterFrame handler in AS1/AS2 or the analogous enterFrame event if you're already using AS3). The only significant constraint you need to watch out for here is memory usage. Allocating and storing a bitmap in memory for each frame goes through RAM very quickly if you're storing more than a minute or two of video in this manner. While this works, it doesn't work nearly as well as saving to FLV via a server. Your frame rate may get choppy depending on the Flash Player and/or system performance and you're certainly not going to get sound this way. If you want the full monty, you'll need to go RTMP.

Re: [Flashcoders] Webcam color tracking
Hey guyz, Thank you all for the replies. I've sorta hacked it... Before I do the getColorBoundsRect, I now do a threshold on the image to make the colors that are close to what my LED looks like, 100% red. I then do the getColorBoundsRect on the red and that works just fine. Now I'll try different colors of LEDs to see which works best and to make sure there's nothing else in the camera's eye that has the same color. It would indeed be great to see how Grant did his Mister Glove... But I'm guessing it's somewhere along the line of what I'm doing here...

Re: [Flashcoders] Webcam color tracking
Serge, Though I can not provide the source code, I have seen Grant Skinner demo an application that tracks LEDs. You can see it here: http://incomplet.gskinner.com/index2.html#mister In particular, at the link above select MISTER glove video. Grant explained the details. Perhaps others on this list recall details? g On 9/12/06, Serge Jespers [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Well... I need to be able to track a LED light.

Re: [Flashcoders] Webcam color tracking
No, I still used getColourBoundsRect. It works OK until you get more than one object of the same colour - then you end up getting big rectangles which span the distance between the two, which is bad. You could *probably* get around this with some kind of quadtree-type algorithm, it's something I've been meaning to look into, and will probably be going back to soon. (As soon as I get five spare minutes...) Also - Grant Skinner claims to have solved the problem, but AFAIK, he's only posted videos, not working examples, so I don't know what approach he used.

Serge Yeah, I've done some work with it. The trick is to apply some contrast filters to reduce the colour depth, and be a bit more picky about getting your source colour. You can do the getColourBoundsRect thing, but it's still pretty inaccurate though.

Re: [Flashcoders] Webcam color tracking
So... euhm.. no one? Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone has already tried webcam color tracking inside Flash 8 or 9...? So not the difference motion tracking that you see everywhere but tracking one particular color. Or I should say range of colors... I started out with getColorBoundsRect but that doesn't seem to be accurate enough or I just picked the wrong color... So... 1) Has anyone done it before? And if so, do you have a source laying around that could get me on the right track? 2) How does one select the correct color?
