I'm looking for a way to add seeking capability to audio playback. I can do it pretty easily for video, but I'm currently using a sound object which has no seek capabilities whatsoever.
Is there a different object or method I can use to direct audio playback to a particular point in the audio duration?[code]...
I may be mistaken, but it appears that Facebook only supports friend-selector dialogs within a request/invite form. I take that to mean that since our app is just allowing the user to arrange a subset of friends for display within the app (no message to the friend), we must use something that isn't available from Facebook. It would be nice to know if I'm wrong, but important to have some clear pointers on how to get a friend ID back from the dialog without an invite or request getting sent to the friend.
I've searched for solutions and the closest I've come is a description of something that implements what I want offered for license by Mike Knoop. I've tried making contact, but still don't know whether the code (or license terms) will work. It would be really nice to have a solution that was more open, but any pointers to widgets/libraries that include this capability
I'm interested in learning how to decode and playback audio in ActionScript 3. I understand how to write bytes to a Sound object using the SAMPLE_DATA event, so that's not really a problem. What I want to understand is how I could implement alternate audio formats for native playback inside of Flash Player. I guess what I'm asking is: how do I take something in X format and "convert/decode" it to WAV format and write the bytes to a Sound object, playing back the audio? I'm interested in writing a decoder for FLAC audio and possibly OGG audio, as these seem to be some of the most widely used open source audio formats
View 2 RepliesI've been developing in flash for a while now and now I have a job developing flash and actionscript 3.0. I have come across a project with a simple concept but I have found it difficult to implement.
What I want to do is allow the user to click a button and record their voice and then I want them to click another button and play it back. I don't need to save or store it and I don't have access to a flash media server or any alternative.
So my FLV videos play just fine, however when I click on any of the navigation buttons to visit another section of my website, the audio keeps on going. There must be some simple AS to stop the audio once a button is clicked. As it is now, the user has to stop the FLV video manually by clicking the stop button on the FLV playback component.
View 5 RepliesI have an mp4 file that i made and i made it 7.1 surround sound, and i'm pretty sure that this 7.1 surround sound works, as it can be played in VLC. i'm using netstream to load my files now. How do i make it so that flash can playback all 8-channels of sound?
View 3 Repliesmp3 playback security with Flash player. I am making a mp3 player and don't want to give user access to download the mp3 files from server. But according to Flash player functionality, it's getting downloaded in cache. Also with Firbug user can see the mp3 file path.I would like to have any good suggestion for this development, without streaming server. Is it really possible to secure mp3 files with Flash player? If yes then please let me know your feedback for the same.
View 3 RepliesI want to add a simple audio control (play/pause/seek/volume) control to my flex application.
View 1 RepliesI'm writing a flex app, which must record an audio and then playback. It records just fine, I can hear the flv on the server, but when it comes to the playback it cuts the end a little bit, and each time I ask to reproduce again it cuts a little bit more. I guess it's something related to buffer management, but I don't know exactly.
Here's the code I'm using to playback. It is called from a mediator:
var streamPlayClient:Object = new Object();
this.stream.client = streamPlayClient;
streamPlayClient.onPlayStatus = function(infoObject:Object):void {
if (infoObject.code == "NetStream.Buffer.Flush") {
stopPlayback();
}} this.stream.play("flv:" + this.streamName);
We're creating video that is destined for multiple countries - we've created a framework that has a video page (using the FLV playback component, w an external FLV w/ progressive download) for the given languages we're using, and subtitles for each, etc.. Until now, we've been using the same English video & audio for each, but the client is looking into having the videos dubbed into different languages.
We're hoping to avoid re-encoding the video for each language in order to accommodate for the different audio tracks. Also, having different video files for each language would mean using more storage (since we're talking about a lot of video files, so it adds up). Is there a way to use FLV playback to progressive download an FLV file (video only) while playing a separate mp3 file? Most inquiries into playing separate audio and video has led me to embedding video, which isn't feasible in our case.
[URL]. Site works fine after a lot of experimentation but there's 1 problem. If you start the video and go to another tab the audio continues go back again and it starts again, this can happen multiple times. I am using a flv playback component.
View 0 RepliesI'm trying to playback some sample data through the new real-time audio capabilities of Flash Player 10. I started with the example given at the bottom of this page on livedocs, which seems to work fine and plays a crystal clear tone.I assume that the two writeFloat's in the example write to the left and right audio channels respectively and that the data being written is 32 bit (because of the float).
However. I seem to be having trouble converting my old 8 bit audio data to a format that is understood by this interface. When I playback my sample data I can vaguely hear the sound I'm expecting but it is massively distorted. My sample data consists of raw 8 bit samples that ranges from 0..255 where 127 is silence.
I've been trying different conversion formulas but I seem to be missing some vital information regarding this conversion.
UPDATE:The correct formula turns out to be:
f = (sample.data.readByte() - 127) / 255
I have a custom Flash video player that uses the NetConnection and NetStream classes to stream mp4 files from a Wowza server. Lately the playback has been having audio problems. The sound is crackled and in some cases may cause the Flash player to crash. This is not consistent between files. Meaning that a file that was played once with bad audio could be fine 5 minutes later when played again from a new instance of the player , but 5 minutes later have the same problem.
My thought direct me to thinking this was an encoding problem, but that wouldn't explain how one second the playback is fine, and once refreshed messes up again.
I should note that the Wowza server does not stream the entire file but only a portion of it based on various parameters it gets.
I've written this code for a custom scroll bar
Code:
targY = 0;
dragger.onPress = function() {
startDrag(this, false, this._x, 0, this._x, theMask._height-this._height);
[Code].....
how I would add scroll wheel capability to the scrolling? I've tried a few methods, but I'm not very good at class based coding, and from I've read, it's necessary to perform that function.
I use a dual-boot computer, with one partition for Linux (Debian) and one for Windows XP. I can't use Flash on Linux as Adobe has never ported it to that platform. So I put my Flash on the Windows partition.Unfortunately, while I have no trouble with Flash 8 on the Windows partition, when I attempt to open Flash 9 on it it crashes the entire system.
My husband found an article in the Winter 2009-2010 issue of 2600, the Hacker Quarterly magazine; it seems that in CS3, which Flash 9 is part of, Adobe has written its copy protection code in such a way as to cause a dual-boot machine to become unbootable after one uses Adobe software.I don't understand all the technical issues, but as the article states, "even though you have paid Adobe real money for their software, they will still potentially ruin your dual-boot system."
I realize Adobe doesn't consider Linux users numerous enough to accommodate,but by taking my money for their product,the company has an obligation to give me value in return.The value I expect is to be able to use the software I paid for - it's not up to Adobe to decide which OS I should use.At least they could warn people that you can't use CS3(and probably not CS4) on a dual-boot system.I will now start learning to use Inkscape immediately.

I see where the text is under Actions but I'm wondering if I can input hyperlinks and email links as well or will I only be able to use this with plain text.
If formatting and links are allowed, how can I input the text to show as a link.
Sorry, I don't know much about flash and just trying to make a simple text box with scrolling capability that will allow hyperlinks, bold, etc...
only those who actually got real code to show please Im looking for help on how to create send-email with attachment using AS3.
Furthermore the attachment should be printscreen of the flash movie converted into JPEG (preferrably with no need to upload the file to server - can this be done on the fly?), and the JPEG then should be included as attachment in the email.

If I import an FLV video is there any way to remove the audio, put the audio into a byte array, and then re-add the audio to the flv video?
View 1 RepliesI have a HTTP video player built using Adobe's OSMF and I am experiencing a strange behavior when trying to seek within a subclip.The player requests data from the server using URL like "http:[url]...." to get the full video, and appends "?begin=123456" to request a subclip starting at 123456 bytes offset.Whenever I try to seek within a loaded subclip, the playhead just drops to the start of the subclip and the video plays from there. Although both mediaPlayer.canSeek() and mediaPlayer.canSeekTo(newtime) return true.
View 1 RepliesI have a simple flv player which connects to a CDN which can take header byte range requests if a user wants to skip through a flv without the need for the flv to be 100% loaded.I am using a third party http librabry to add the range header to the request.My code plays the flv but when I try to skip to 30 seconds into the video it just freezes. I beleive the cdn does return the file as i can trace through the bytes and the header has the content-range repsonse (below).[code]

View 4 RepliesI used a template from adobe and modified it to fit my needs.

View 1 RepliesSo I run into this issue that Enhanced Seeking is enabled by default. And I would really like to disable it (long story here). But it seems you can only disable it on the FMS, by adding this setting to the application.xml. But the thing is we are not sure if we will end up using an FMS or not. So, can I disable Enhanced Seeking without using FMS?

At the moment i am using vlc to transcode my video realtime and display the output through Flowplayer.The problem is that I am struggling to seek using flowplayer my time gets out of sync between the stream and flowplayer and there are a few other issues.Are there any streaming servers that allow for real time transcoding and allow for a flash player to seek.
View 1 RepliesNormally we use NetStream.Seek method but it will make the seek after the buffer area crossed the seek time length.(HTTP). Can we seek the video that is beyond the buffered area like youtube in red5. Will it start the buffer from the seek point.
