I'm curious if anyone has any idea how to use properly-formed XML, generated via script (and user-interaction) as a source for captions?
Since this is an AIR app, I know that I have the option to write a temp file to the application storage directory, but if I can avoid doing this, things will go much smoother.
If I remove the variables and just type in the path name, the file does play. So there's no other error in this piece of code. I just can't seem to figure out how to create that filename from variables.
EDIT: I should point out more clearly its about the line = public var soundRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("sounds/" + Champ + soundType + ".mp3");
I get a 2044 unhandled ioerrorevent error and a 2032 stream error.

I'm loading a filepath variable from a php script that simply returns something like [URL] This works fine, apart from the last bit which reads the text file where it throws an error: Error #2044: Unhandled ioError:. text=Error #2032: Stream Error. URL: file: However it works fine if I replace the variable with the actual filepath loadit.load(new URLRequest(filename)); to loadit.load(new URLRequest(C:/wamp/www/text/o/blah.txt);

I want to get the extension of a file path in Flex. In C# I would just use Path.GetExtension() to do this.

I'm writing a Flash-based video player which simply plays FLV videos. A filename is passed in via a flashvar. Presently, this is achieved with the following function:

A video is grabbed and then added to the stage, with a player skin overlaid. However, what I want to do is load a video from the file system (the same server the SWF is deployed to) rather than fetching a video from a URL. Reading the documentation for the source property tells me it will only accept URLs. The reason I want to read from the file system is because these videos will be stored outside the root of the server. For example, a standard Apache set-up:

View 2 RepliesIn Mac OS X I previously had the ability to export FLV from a variety of sources- QuickTime, MPEG StreamClip, Unexpectedly, the flv export option is now missing. In CS3, there used to be an Adobe QuickTime plugin called "flv.component". That item is no longer installed by CS4.
- The Questions
1) Is it still possible to export FLV from QuickTime, etc.?
2) If possible, which installed file or files provides this capability?
OS X 10.5.8 QuickTime Pro 7.6.2
I have a rather big (34 MB) Flash CS4 AS3 swf being loaded as a whole into a preloader like
l.load(new URLRequest("sample.swf"));
What are my options to minimize loading time? Can I split the swf and load from several servers? I'm dynamically loading images from the library:
var myBitmapDataObject:myBitmapData = new myBitmapData(100, 100);
var myImage:Bitmap = new Bitmap(myBitmapDataObject);
addChild(myImage);
Right now I'm declaring/referencing every single image in order to get it included in the compiled clip. Any better way? Haven't got round to using Flex yet.
my swf is 34 MB. Is there a way to compile it to multiple parts and distribute over servers? How would i load that?

View 2 RepliesI have an mp3player that loads an external mp3 file and plays. It works just fine if the url/location is hardcoded in the swf file. However, I need to be able to have the url passed to the flash externally so that a number of users may utilize this single swf build.
Example:
Current location need to be filename.mp3 or [URL]. However, I need this location to be edited per use of the swf. In php i know I could call it such as:
$myLocation = "123";
[URL]
or
$myLocation = "[URL]";
(The "123" is what changes for each page use)
Here is the code i have that is working just fine. Until I need to use a full url that changes for each page the swf is use on.
onClipEvent (load) {
if (playing!=true) {
playing=true;
soundIsLoaded=1
myMusic=new Sound();
myMusic.loadSound("myMusic.mp3",true)
}}
Limitations:
1. Because of the server set up, I am always required to call items using full absolute urls/paths.
2. php, cfm, xml etc are not available for use with this. -- the goal is to be able to give an webmaster a copy of the swf and the code to embed it on their html page... and that's it.
I have picked up a uiLoader component, and copy-pasted four times, so now I got five of them in my flash movie. Each got a different source (dresses/dresses1.swf, dresses/dresses2.swf, dresses/dresses3.swf, dresses/dresses4.swf, dresses/dresses5.swf). But When I launch the movie, all the 5 uiLoaders display the same content: dresses/dresses2.swf, and I can't understand why. For a test, I have replaced the .swf file with some jpeg files, and they were ok, but as I put the swf files back they show the same content again. The sources are ok, they work perfectly separately, so I can't figure out what is the reason why the swf files are loaded incorrectly..
View 3 RepliesI am loading multiple images into a class instance and I would like to keep track of how large the complete amount of loaded data is at any given point.I have grabbed the totalbytes from my directory of images via a PHP script... but collecting the new bytes from the ProgressEvent on each image seems tricky for some reason.Let's assume that the totalBytes variable is correct and that I am totally unfamiliar with the way that ProgressEvent works.Does an event get fired every time ProgressEvent gets a new byte? If not, how do I keep track of the current total bytes?[code]

My question is simple. Let's say I have 2 List Controls. 1 of Users and 1 of Tickets. (The 2 Sources). And I have a DataGrid (the target). Is possible to select 1 user and 1 ticket in the 2 list mentioned before and drag & drop them at the same time to the DataGrid? I know it's not as simple as they are going to get automatically mixed.. If it is possible... I would have to use the DragEnter Event of the Datagrid or something to mix them and create my dataProvider. But I don't know how you can drag & drop 2 items at the same time from different sources. It is possible with one source.. But no idea of how to do it with 2 sources.

I'm struggling setting up 4 live audio sources with fms 3.5. I have 4 streams input from our studios into 1 encoder server. From here I need to pass it to the internet via 4 FMS 3.5 servers. I do not want to have 4 * 4 encoding sessions on the encoder in order to service the 4 FMS servers. Is there any way to pull the streams from the encoders? I have also tried configuring explicit connections using 1 server as an origin server and 3 as edge servers but being a live stream the load and connections seem to get passed to the origin server which will eventually not handle the load. I've looked through the application.xml server settings but cannot seem to see any noticeable settings?

we would like to purchase Flash Media Interactive Server 3.5 to solve the following problem
1.Broadcast network internet lectures on a paid subscription,with the possibility user authentication.
2. Broadcast video and audio.
3. Broadcasting from several sources (1 camera, 2 camera, TV tuner, etc.)within a single stream with the possibility of the user to choose the viewing source, other sources at this time, you can view the preview.
4. The intended audience for 10 000 users and more. 5. Estimated flow rate of 1 megabit per second.
1. Is it possible for broadcasters to use a single server, or they need more? What configuration? 2. Does Flash Media Interactive Server 3.5 multicast? 3. How to make the system user authorization? Additional software, plug-ins? 4. How many users can simultaneously connect to the broadcast Flash Media Interactive Server 3.5 and how we calculate the bandwidth and outbound traffic?
