View 14 RepliesAt run time, Is it possible to detect the 'Connection Speed of the user' and change the way my preloader works? Say If the user is on a Dial up connection then play the initial 50% of the movie that has been loaded while loading the remaining 50% in background, If the user is on DSL or cable then load the entire 100% movie and so on.

View 4 RepliesAt the end of the movie I would like to check if the user is still connected to the Internet (they maybe on an unstable dial-up connection and lost connection). Is there anyway to do that? I mean, is there a way to check if a user is connected to the Internet using ActionScript?

View 1 RepliesIs there a way to continually check the user's internet connection from within Flash?
The one way I've seen is to load a small file using loadVars, and if that file loads successfully, then the connection is good.
But is there something in System.capabilities or System.security that might be a better option?
This might seem like a simple question, but I searched the internet to no avail.I am creating an air app that uses HTTPService to connect to a .net api and get a user for example. It works great when I publish the move for "Flash Player 10" as a .swf, however, when I publish it as .air it seems like there is no internet connection at all. I am assuming it's internet securities (maybe firewall). I turned off my firewall and everything that might be blocking the internet access, but nothing seems to work.
View 1 RepliesI'm creating a stand-alone player based Flash app. Some of the required elements within it are links to areas in a site online. I need to test before hand if the user has a connection. I'm stumped on this one. I'm not worried about NetConnection etc. I'm simply trying to test if the user has an internet connection or not. Would anybody happen to know if there is a function or some combination of methods that is not browser-based that can test for an internet connection?
View 2 RepliesMy connection at work seems to be a bit rocky. I'd like to make a simple graph using the awesome power of ActionScript to demonstrate the rockiness of work compared to the smoothness at home to my IT guys.Websites like speedtest.net won't cut it as sometimes my connection is great, with sudden cutoffs randomly. Other apps won't work as I can't install software at work.
Any thoughts on how to get started? I'm guessing I download some audio or something at regular intervals or something to test/graph (I can handle the graph part)? I don't need specifics, although I'd be delighted to see examples if any. I really just need some general guidance on where to get started.
How do I check for an active internet connection in Flash using Actionscript 3?
View 2 RepliesI've noticed in testing a problem whereby Flowplayer will not play any content without a internet connection. All the files which make up my project are stored locally, and I've gone through and checked all the paths to make sure nothing points outwards towards the internet.
Curiously if I pull the internet connection out before the web page loads, the video file fails to load, however installing a loopback adapter gets around this. How can I alleviate this problem?
For proofs sake I've loaded the page in chrome looked at the network activity;

View 11 RepliesI am writing a peer-to-peer binary socket program. There are only two endpoints. One socket is listening on my laptop system. The other socket is broadcasting from my desktop system. I have a third program running on a hosted server, that is available to broker the connection between the two. My problem is that when the laptop and desktop are on the same network, they both have the same internet IP address but different intranet IPs, but when the laptop is on the road, then the IP addresses are different. In order to be truly peer-to-peer, I have to write it so that after the connection is established, that the two computers communicate directly between one another. How is this generally accomplished, when the two computers could potentially share the same IP address, if they are running on the same network?
View 1 RepliesI am creating a local app that is going to be a swf file. Is there anyway to check if the user has internet while they are using my app. I tried this, it works great if testing the movie from flash, however, It does not work when running the swf file independently. I'm guessing this is because it is strictly intended for air app.[code]...

View 3 RepliesI'm having trouble with it. Most of the examples I've found on the net are in AS1 from 2004 and older, using some strange operation or modifier before variables which I haven't seen before -> /: And they don't work in AS2.So I've started making mine. I've thought of making two preloading frames, each would gather time and bytes loaded, than calculate the difference between them and thus getting connection speed.
ActionScript Code:
//frame 1
time0 = getTimer ()/1000;
