ActionScript 3.0 :: Compress An Embedded PNG (FLASH)
Feb 24, 2011
I'm using this code to embed an image into my flash file:[Embed(source="images/grass01.png")]As you all know, if you embed an image, it comes in without any compression at all.Is there any way to compress this image without having to do it manually? (I have hundreds of images that will be embedded).I came across this link URL...but I assume this is a flex only thing, as I get an error if I try putting the compression variable in my embed tag.

I have to load a large xml in flash and I'm trying to send it compressed. To do that I tried to zlib compress the string and send it base64 encoded. In flash I turn the string into a byte array and use its uncompress() method. So far I tried:ZLIB.NET
byte[] bytData = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(str);
MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream();
Stream s = new zlib.ZOutputStream(ms, 3);

The keyword is "sometimes".
I recompiled a Flash 8 project in Flash CS3 recently and noticed that some of the sound effects sounded like a painful chippy mess. It sounded like the mp3 bitrate was at the lowest Flash outputs (16kbps). I compiled again, and all the problems went away. Then I compiled again and different sounds went chippy!
Fine, whatever. Maybe it's a glitch between project versions.
This week I built a project from the ground up in Flash CS3 with AS 3.0 . The chippy compression is still there and happens most of the time. Both my global and local compression settings for sound clips are mp3, 160kbps, Stereo.

I`ll be dealing with this few hours now, so I manage to optimize compiled swf file for only 5kb, and I need to achieve 15.
So, what are the options to prevent unnecessary file size?

Using an unobtrusive technology (HTML5, Flash, Java Applet) which runs in the browser, is it possible to handle compressing of files before being uploaded to the server? I'm building software which will be consumed by a lot of slow connections and by non-computer-savvy users and circumventing an application install would be very beneficial for them.

im using an open source program called Festival that generates text to speech, and in ubuntu i call its method text2wave that converts text into a wave file. I am looking into converting short paragraphs to wave files, but the problem is that each wave file ends up being approximately 1.2MB in size. The wave file is recorded at 16khz, and while recording at 8khz halves the size of the wave file (sacrificing sound quality), the wave file is just simply too large. These paragraphs have to be served many times to the clients and our server can not support that much bandwidth. Is it possible to compress the file on the server, and decompress it in my flash script (on the client side) and play the wave?

I'd like to gain read only access to the following parameters of embedded Flash videos located on sites that I do not own through my own custom browser extension/add-on:
Time location of playback head (so I can display the current time in the browser extension via HTML5/JavaScript) Frames (so I can make capture them to an image file, save it and display image in browser extension) Original Dimensions in pixels (so I can display the original video dimensions via JS/HTML5 in browser extension)
Is this possible by using Javascript and HTML5 from a browser extension?
Would I have to use something like the SWFObject Javascript API [URL]

I have a FileReference that is being uploaded. But before upload, I call the compress() method on the ByteArray of the FileReference i.e. fileReference.data.compress().
But I observe that the uploaded file is the raw file and not the compressed file.
Is this a Flex bug or expected behavior? The data field in the FileReference is read-only. Does that come into play?

This is important since if it's growing too fast there won't be enough space.

I work on a Flex application that creates compressed files and uploads them on a server. The files are created with ByteArray.compress method, which is zlib compression. I can decompress them using Python API on the server but I prefer to keep the files compressed there. I want to be able to download and decompress the files later, however WinZip and WinRar fail to decompress them. When I google for zlib utility, I only find zlib dll library. I need a simple application for Windows (and/or Linux)

Looking at the attached file, why does bottomScrollV give me the wrong value when the text is dynamically embedded and correct when manually embedded?
Here's the code:

loader.load( new URLRequest("info.xml") );

I have some AS3 code that embeds a SWF (which itself contains AS3):[code]They also don't seem to offer any way to extract the ByteArray.Surely it can't be that easy to obfuscate AS3 code. But where did the SWF go? Looking at it with a hex editor, I can't even find the start header ("CWS") of the embedded SWF.My question is: what happens to a SWF when its embedded as a ByteArray? And do any decompilers support extracting an embedded ByteArray?I'm not embedding this SWF in order to obfuscate (there are other reasons). I'm just interested in the decompilation ramifications of embedding.

I have an embedded font in my AIR/AS3 app that lacks support for most internationalcharacters. Using TextField and StyleSheet with the font-family property, I assumed I would simply need to do this:font-family: Interstate-Regular, _sans;This works if TextField.embedFonts = false; but then Interstate-Regular isn't embedded for users that don't have it on their system. With TextField.embedFonts = true; the text doesn't even show up. Is there a way to embed Interstate-Regular and still use _sans as a fallback system font without embedding it as well?

I have a Flash CS4 movie that uses a standard Flash combobox. This works fine, as long as I don't use the resulting SWF embedded on a HTML page. When I do embed it, the combobox doesn't show up, doesn't dispatch mouse events, it's just as if it doesn't exist. However, if I switch to fullscreen, the combobox appears and functions normally, even if I switch back from fullscreen.

[URL]It is a Drupal-powered, AMFPHP-connected AS3 web app. The data goes through to Flash with no problems, I have verified that UTF-8 is fine and all. The problem can be better seen in these URLs:
[URL]
A plaintext version of that link:
[URL]
The font is Inconsolata although I could use any monospace open-source font if necessary. You can see that I have embedded the font (I even opted for the dynamic textfields to embed the whole thing, full charset) as well as the "New Font" menu in the library. Inconsolata shows up with an asterisk in the CS4 authoring tool (which according to Adobe documentation means the thing is embedded).
I have tried other font embedding options to no avail. Inconsolata seems to have that "ō" character when used in the authoring but it is not showing up in the dynamic texts.Another problem I am having: if I use static text fields the font doesn't get embedded (WTF). I have to convert the field to dynamic and then it works ("the videogame history timeline" top left is a dynamic text field although I would prefer it not to be... that and others). If I use static text field the font gets converted to some sort of Times New Roman font.
The text is AS3-created (as well as the search results).I am embedding the text via HTML (.htmlText) and styling with CSS.The whole code is open source and can be found here:
[URL]
An example of how I fill in a text field can be found here:
[URL]
A snippet of such code is:
var ss:StyleSheet = new StyleSheet();
var css:String = ".title { color:#333333; font-family:Inconsolata; font-size:16; leading:2; } ";
css += ".date { color:" + StringUtils.rgb2web(data.color.r, data.color.g, data.color.b) + "; font-family:Inconsolata; font-size:14; leading:4; } ";

I'm experimenting with CSS transforms and I noticed that embedded videos (like for instances the ones from youtube) don't behave as expected when a CSS transformation is applied to them.
I've tested this in the latest Chrome, Firefox and IE and none of them was able to display transformed videos.Is this a bug of sort, or are videos not supposed to obey to CSS transformations? Not even using html5 in Chrome solved the issue.

I'm using Flash CS5. I've got an embedded font loaded from an external SWF. As far as I can tell, it's embedded properly - it used to work before I switched from the classic TextField - but I needed to switch because I need the advanced ligature support. My code is:
//setting up...
var text:TFLTextField = new TLFTextField();
text.width = 530;
text.height = 330;
[Code]....
Edit: Just tried to switch the font to Arial, and it fell back to Times New Roman again. So apparently the problem is not with the embedding, but with the way I assign the font - meaning this may be less complicated than I originally thought. Scratch that, Arial worked after I changed embedFonts to false.
