Flash will be receiving a Base-64 encoded image (from a web service) and need to convert & display that image on the stage.
For conceptual purposes, I'm omitting the web-service aspect for now and just reading in a Base-64 string, generated from an online service.
Now that I have the data into Flash, how do I properly convert it to an image and display it.
I need to convert a base64 encoded string from a server (being sent via amf) to an image. on the server the raw image data (gif / jpeg / png) is being encoded to base64 (which already works fine), and I need to decode this string and display the image in my flash movie.

View 12 RepliesI have a string of of base64-encoded PNG image that is suitable to use as a src (source) attribute in a <img> tag. However I need to transfer this image to Flash applet where I need to create (show) the image fast. Is there a way to simply use the data string and somehow create an image (inside a Flash movie) from it?
View 1 RepliesI'm developing a flex application that displays a list of images along with some metadataThe images are less than 500kb. They are stored in the database as base64 encoded stringsretrieved using PHP, send over to flex as XML (which creates a fairly large XML output file)Now my problem is that, while I can display upto 2-3 images easily, anything more than 3 or sometimes 2 images will cause the images to be corrupt. Sometimes the whole app fails.I am guessing this is due to the large size of the generated XML. I know I am doing something wrong here. I want to know what is the proper method for storing/retrieving a lot of images in a flex application.

I have 2 images, a base and a top. I want the top to rotate to face an object but the base to remain constant. I can get close but when the top rotates it is rotating around the corner of the rectangle it is placed inside of rather than the center. Here's the AS code for the object.....but the important elements are bolded.
public class Turret extends MovieClip{
private var _root:MovieClip;
[Embed(source='mortarbase.png')]
private var mortarBase:Class;

View 1 RepliesI have a method that converts an int to a base60 string (using 0-9, a-z, and A-Z chars), but can't work out how to convert it back again. Here is my method for converting base10 to base60:
public static function toBase60(value:Number):String
{
var targetBase:uint = 60;
[Code]....
Works well. But how do I get the base60 string back into a base10 int?
Its been a while since i touched flash, which is funny considering i started my web/development career here.Anyway, in PHP there is a nice little function called base_convert (http:url....) which will take any number in any base (e.g. base 10, decimal) and convert it to any base (e.g. base 16, hex).So base_convert (15, 10, 16) will output F, which is convenient.I am wondering, as i cannot seem to find, if there is any similar function in actionscript. I am trying to convert from base 10 to 16 and then base 16 to 36.

I found an old thread which showed how to get javascript to send flash a variable obtained from the URL which loads it's html page [URL].. It works a treat in Firefox but for some reason in IE it doesn't show the swf file it merely shows a white box where the swf should be and a scrollbar next to it.

The text appears in a List Component. I am changing the font around to find one that might work but this is not working. Anyone know how to represent accented characters in a List component?
Update:Loading the XML document from an external file does not have the same problem:
var myXML:XML = new XML();
myXML.load("someXmlFile.xml");
//This works
However I need this xml to be built into the SWF. So am creating the XML from a string:
var xmlString:String = "<root><textNode>bebè</textNode></root>";
var myXML:XML = new XML(xmlString); //This breaks the encoding?!
So I was using Flash Develop to edit the actionscript that contains the xml. This was apparently not encoding the text correctly.
i want to rotate 3D an Image called img1 in Flex. I want to rotate it around y axis 180 degree. I can do this by using 3D effect already built in Flex but i want to do a bit more different. I want during rotating, there's another image called img2 appear on back of img1 (in default case, the image appear on the back is img1) and when rotating finish, the image will be img2.

View 1 RepliesI am creating a program that is effectively an sprite creator. I'm very new to AS3, but I know JQuery, JS, PHP, etc. After going through multiple steps of selecting pieces to customize a character, you are supposed to be able to download the final product using fileReference(). Everything works, and I can download the image in the end, but the problem is that I cannot capture all of several movieclips on the stage, I can only capture one. Maybe this will help clarify:

Could it be that each of the movieclips I'm adding to the sprite have children of their own?

i'm having a strange image display problem where i load an external image onto the stage, then at runtime if i put a sprite over part of that image, say a pulldown menu covers the image temporarily, after the sprite goes away the image repaints with a 2 or 3 pixel offset from the uncovered part of the image.this happens regardless of any dpi adjustment in the image or the image format (.jpg, .png, .gif). this happens regardless of whether i load from an external file or from the library.

We have multiple servers for different offices. SWF is copied to multiple offices and there is script to redirect the path depending on the user location. It works well except that it copies the SWF only once each day. Before it's available, we have to use the path to the staging server location that is only visible to the main office and identified users. If SWF is not copied over, users would see a blank page. I wonder if it's possible to have some kind of Javascript that will display an image (can be stored in the main office while accessed by all) if SWF can't be found. This would make it more usable during our update time.
View 0 RepliesProbably this feature is in the next generation of FMS 4.5 However, it is said this can be achieved with some manipulation of files with current FMS. Can we do a 2-way live video session.
UserA(in webpage flashplayerV11 beta: encode using H264) -> Flash Media Server -> UserB at iPhone(either HTML5 or others to play the live video in RTMP/RTMFP)
Next step will be the reverse:UserA(in webpage flashplayerV11 beta: decode using H264) <- Flash Media Server <- UserB at iPhone(either HTML5 or others to publish the live video in RTMP/ RTMFP)Better to use UDP based.Seems the HTTP live streaming incurs huge delay 4-8sec; not really working for live video chat sessions.. So how Skype handle this on iOS? with its own encoding/decoding?
I have a legacy file format that contains sounds embedded in it (in various encodings). I would like to be able to play these sounds in Flash (Air?) by reading the sound bytes out of the file and instantiating a Sound object with them.
If the sound is unencoded (e.g., raw pcm), I've found that I can use the new flex 4 SampleDataEvent.SAMPLE_DATA event to play the sound.
However, if the sound is encoded (e.g., mp3), then I'm at a loss. The sound expected by SampleDataEvent.SAMPLE_DATA has to be raw pcm. From what I've seen, encoded Sounds can only be instantiated by [Embed]ing them, or by using a URLRequest with Sound.load().
