ActionScript 3.0 :: FLV, Masking, And Macintosh Projector Oddities?

Jan 30, 2010

I have an instance of an FLV video in a movie clip on the main timeline. Withing the movie clip, I have it masked to fit into a custom shape on-screen, and I am publishing this as a Macintosh projector app.When I view the projector in its native size (1024x768), the masking works fine. But when I switch to full-screen mode, the masking disappears, and all I see is the video. It also kind of screws up the navigation from this mc to the next, i.e., the cuepoint stops working.

Professional :: Macintosh Full Screen Projector?

Jul 2, 2009

I'm trying to create a Macintosh full screen projector. Easy, I know.WHY the hell doesn't it go full screen... I keep getting the title bar at the top of the projector.
Windows projector works perfectly.Some software called Zinc will provide me with the solution to this problem but it's expensive and the free version adds a watermark to the file, which is not good.

I'm using  the standard... fscommand("fullscreen", "true");
I found a thread which suggests a workaround of adding
Frame 1 - fscommand("fullscreen", "true");

Media Server :: Player Hangs On Macintosh?

Oct 15, 2010

I have been experiencing a somewhat random inability of my player to load on a Macintosh. It doesn't happen everytime, maybe 2 out of 10  times. This does not happen on a Pc. My flash file is  actionscript 2.0, and I have enabled hardware acceleration. This issue  was happening before I enabled the hardware acceleration. Here is the player I am talking about:[URL]
 
We currenlty don't have the password for the administration console, so I haven't been able to monitor it that way.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Recent Socket Data Transfer Performance Decreased On Macintosh Systems?

Feb 1, 2012

I'm using a .swf to connect to a socket and stream data as fast as possible for 60 seconds to measure connectivity speed.In other words a speed test.In the past say month or two, I've found Macintosh systems 10.5 and higher experience a significant slow down, In testing I see my socket connect and reach about 2.5Mbps - 3.5Mbps and literally stick as though the .swf was throttling the connection.

This 'problem' is random and appears to come and go. I've tested this in Chrome,Firefox and Safari with all the same results.Using the exact same test on any Windows or Linux OS works totally fine.Admittedly I'm an ActionScript novice however the code I'm using is below and has worked for some time up until recently.

ActionScript Code:
var s:Socket;
var Tbytes:Number = 0;
function connectToSocket():void{

Size Too Large Of Masking?

Jul 25, 2010

i made a masking anim using frame by frame animation on the mask layer...

when i exported the swf it was of 83 kb (too huge) and i checked it was all due to shapes in the mask layer....

i found "eltima swf optimizer" on internet but it gives only black and white output in the demo version ....

i opmitized all shapes one by one by using modify>shape>optimize using 100% optimization but when i exported swf this time was 114kb(even more) this sux!!!

my question is that is there any other "swf optimizer" that i can use for free.. (hey its my school project and i just need to mask a single jpeg)

ActionScript 3.0 :: Masking 2 Objects At Once?

Nov 6, 2009

I posted a message a while ago about creating a spotlight effect over a background and it was suggested that I use masks to create the desired effect. This worked fantastically.... until now lol. I need to mask both the background image AND some randomly generated on-screen objects. Whever I try to add the mask to the objects generated at run-time, it ceases to mask the background as well!
 
I should probably have expected this one... but was just wondering what was the best wat to get around this? Should I create 2 'spotlight' objects which directly overlap each other, but have one set to mask the background while the other masks everything else? Or is there an easier approach?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Using BitmapData For Masking?

Jul 13, 2007

I have a PNG file with transparency imported into the library and converted to MovieClip.Now I want to use this PNG file for masking another sprite drawn dynamically using the drawing API. I know that you cant mask a runtime generated sprite with a author time movieclip. So i created another runtime sprite and copied the BitmapData of the PNG in the library to it. The masking happens, but not the way i want. The BitmapData is always a solid box and the masking apears across this box. I would like to have the transparent region of the PNG omitted from the mask data

I'm coming from AS3 and I'm trying to mask a SWF file that's being imported in but it's doing something pretty funky. The SWF file is coming in fine, but when I'm masking it, it shows the shape I'm masking with, but it's also masking because nothing is going beyond its' edges.

{
var mask_mc:Shape = new Shape();
mask_mc.graphics.beginFill(0x000000);

IDE :: Alpha Masking Insanity?

Jan 31, 2010

I have gimp. I have flash cs4.I have a picture of a dog that is 200 by 200 pixels with alpha transparency (you only see the dog no background, it's a png).Now I want to make only the dog listen for a mouseclick event. I saw some way of doing this by looking at the point where the mouse click event occured, and then stopping or continuing the event propogation based on if the pixel clicked was transparent or not. This seems sort of hackish. The "Clean" way I propose is by using a mask over the 200 by 200 image, but the mask should be shaped like everything that is NOT the dog. So it's a mask with a hole in the middle. the hole in the middle being nothing. not even alpha. Or the other way if this isn't possible, is to create a 200 by 200 image with just alpha value 0, and then stamp the dog on top as a mask... It appears there is nothing out there that describes how to do this.All I see are "bitmapfill" on squares and circles, which is utterly basic.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Masking Of A Duplicated MC

Mar 22, 2004

I am trying to mask a duplicated mc.

I am attaching my .fla so you can take a look. The code is a bit long, but I marked the setMask code line with dashes (it's right on top). I marked out the setMask line so you can see how it looks like, because when I do mask, you can see any of the MCs that are being masked.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Masking In Real Time?

May 30, 2009

I'm currently using the Graphics library to draw bands of color across an image (bitmap).So, I draw a square of colored bands, and mask it with the bitmap image. Unfortunately, when I use a mask (or even set the blend mode to .LAYER, OR use a shader filter) the FPS drops to un-usable levels.Is there some way that I can draw the bitmap shape I want without killing the FPS? I was thinking that I could like, draw the bitmap on top of the sqaure of Graphics, and then make a certain color transparent.

ActionScript 3.0 :: FP10 Perspective And Masking

Jul 29, 2009

So I am learning AS3 slowly.First project in it.I am having some troubles. (I know I need to learn to code class based, working on it, familiarizing myself with some of the basics before I change my style completely).I have set up my stage to have four instances of a movieclip named silverScreen0 - silverScreen3.Each of those has a content layer in it which I am dynamically loading an identical swf.I then have a mask I put over each clip so that it only show a specific area.

-First issue comes up that hte fourth mask seems to move/distort on load, as you'll see in the swf.

-Second issue comes up when the loaded swf comes in ... the mask seems to shift if the swf has a motion animation, click the second white circle above chapter1 to see this.

-Third issue comes up when I move the content layer inside of the silverScreen# clip ... the mask seems to move as well. No example of this but if you download the source files you can see it.[code]
