ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash Video Drawing / Removing
Nov 29, 2010
I have some code in the first frame of my movie. It loads a streaming video using netstream (fl_NS) and displays it in fl_Vid.I want the user to be able to click a button to make the video fullscreen then press a keyboard key to make the video back to the small view - which almost works. I can make the video fullscreen and make the video shrink back down. Unfortunately, the last frame of the enlarged video is stuck in the background (on top of the HUD).[code]
I use the Youtube API for Actionscript 3 to dynamically load Youtube videos.

When I remove the current video using player.destroy(); and stage.removeChild(), the video goes away. But when the newly loaded video beginning, the sound track from the previous video plays in the background.
i am trying to take photos using webcamera from online web application and i got sample code from [URL] It is working fine to take photos online with the attached web camera and saving it into server for future purpose. Here my problem is i want to keep horizontal and vertical lines on top of the camera area but what ever line i am placing all displaying behind the video area and camera area is displaying ontop of all layers.
So I have a 5 page website, on the home page when I opens you see a video and it automatically plays. When you click to a different page though you can still hear the sound in the background. The video has an instance name of video, I tried using video.stop(); in the code for each button and it works but then it doesn't allow me to navigate when it isn't away from the home page.Here is the code I have for one of my buttons (it's the same for the others with different names though):
home_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, gotoFrame); function gotoFrame(e:MouseEvent):void {

I am brand new to all Adobe applications but have the CS5 Master Suite and have been taking many courses through Lynda.com for months. I wish to learn how to make a small video of an object being sketched. That is use a drawing tablet and stylus (whatever they are called...I have NO idea) and trace over a photo. When finished I wish to have the video of the slowly created tracing of the object sped up and when complete fade away and the actual photograph of the object traced overlap fade into view. In other words use this as a transition technique for presenting a photograph of an object rather then just have it "pop" onto the screen. My questions are: (1) What special drawing pad and stylus are required (if any....can I do it with just the mouse?) (2) Is Flash Professional the program one would use to make such a video? If not which Adobe program is best suited to this task, and (3) Is there a NAME to this "technique" in whatever program was given in answer to question two so I know where to begin and/or look for a tutorial on how to accomplish this technique?
When this video page loads, it displays a white stage background, even though I've tried every method I know to make the bg color black. What am I missing?
is there a way to remove a video instance from the stage with an 'if statement"? Kind of like :next1_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, ongoPage2); function ongoPage2(Event:MouseEvent):void {
I have a an fla made with GoToframe, when a btn is clicked an .swf is loaded on to the stage. there are two buttons that load video galleries, but when any button is clicked after the video gallery the UI loaders work but the video stream remains playing.
I'm getting this one: Error #2123: Security sandbox violation: BitmapData.draw
while I try to draw the image of a video from a rtmp server onto a BitmapData object. The workarounds I've found all apply to a SWF file being loaded from another domain. This involves having logic in that file.However, I see no possibility to place logic into the video and hardly have access to the (WOWZA) video server of which there are multiple and to me unknown ones at forehand due to the CDN's load balancing nature.
I need to have scrub thumbs for video player load and unload repeatedly. Something isn't getting cleared. Every time the thumbs are removed, there's a slight increase in the cpu baseline - something is piling up in memory.
Basically I've got a reasonably complex drawing object in a fla and I want to reproduce it in a class definition using the drawing api. However obviously this is a tedious task, so is there some trick or automated method of doing this?
Last time I needed to do this it was a drawing of an arrow and I ended up writing down x,y,width,height values for everything but this one has curves in it which I don't have experience with drawing anyway.
I cannot get this to work. Without the "var drawing", "var drawing being true or false" and the "if statement", it works fine. But I need to add the "var drawing" so that you can only draw if you turn it on by pressing the "draw_btn" button. Note, I do not get an error, the script "apparently" contains no errors. Here is the code:
ActionScript Code: var drawing = false _root.createEmptyMovieClip("myLine", 0);
I've created a drawing tool which allows the user to draw on the canvas, the problem is that if I try to draw over a movieclip nothing happens. Is there a way I can allow for the user to draw over movieclips? For example if I had a background of paper?
Here's the code I'm using for it:
// This code is for drawing the lines on the page //1. var drawingLine:MovieClip = new MovieClip(); addChildAt(drawingLine,0);
Recently i have visited so many video enriched flash site like this one [URL] Most of them shows video in full size. I downloaded the video using FF plugin. Video framesize is very small compared to the stage size. When i tried to add video and resize the video acoording to the page size , it slows the browser. I tried to embed the flv inside an swf and loaded the swf using normal loader and plyed it.. but the quallity and performance comapred to these site is very low..
I made a video in After Effect and export it to flash as a FLV video.. and write de code to load it into flash.. but I need it to loop.. Here is the code
I need to draw on stage about 40,000 4x4 squares each a different color. The color is determined by an xml file. I have this working in as2 and have converted it to as3 the problem is the amount of time it takes to draw is causing cs4 to time out. I have extended the script time out to 60 seconds. In cs3 as2 it would draw the squares in about 15 seconds. I was hoping as3 cs4 would improve performance but seems to be the opposite. I have tried several methods such as adding children and various drawing variations. the bellow seems to work the best, but is still causing flash to crash.
i want to know if it is possible to play a video via flash player, when the video is located on different server's mysql. for example: i want to play video on [URL] which(video) is located in [URL] mysql
However, either I'm declaring my variables at the wrong bit/way or there is another problem, as I have been able to add the child I want to from the display list (sidepoint: is it right to call the display list everything in the library on stage at runtime plus those things you have exported for actionscript usage??!)...but when I want to remove it at the next cuepoint nothing happens. I feel this is a basic principle that is alluding me here.
Code: vid.addEventListener(MetadataEvent.CUE_POINT, cueText); function cueText(e:MetadataEvent): void{
I'm in the process in making a little drawing board using flash Drawing API. Right now i have the lines drawn by using lineTo() but i was wondering if there is a way to erase portions of the line. I know i could just write over it with white but was thinking of a better way. maybe by change the alpha or using a mask something like that. Just wanted to know if anyone came across this before or have a theory that can give me some insight to solve this problem..
I am having issues with trying to insert a "mailto" link in a flash file. I can create the text no issue, but as soon as I add a link to the text it removed the "dot" and the @ symbol from the url and scrunches all the letter of the email address together, sometimes to the point where some of the letters aremissing. The first image shows the url on the stage, the second image is a test of the scene. It is very frustrating and I don't know how to fix it. I have deleted the entire line and redone it, but still no joy.
I have a small flash that I'd like to expand upon, and basically I'm wondering if it's possible to Make a button that lets you erase things on click, rather than clearing the screen.Draw lines of different colours/thicknessHave the Flash output a code for the drawing (similar to Punk-o-Matic 1/2) and be able to put it into the Flash in a text form to have it output the picture. (Thus allowing sharing of pictures).Here's the code.
I've come across a bug in flash drawing api where if you draw many (24) light opacity layers things get blotched especially if you use bitmap.draw(). I have read somewhere that this is how the draw method has been coded but I don't see any work arounds.
I'm creating a flash game which uses time intervals with setInterval and sometimes does heavy calculations. The problem is that on slower machines these calculations can't keep up with the framerate and the movie slows down BUT the timers are unaffected what makes them asynchronous to the movie. Looking back, it was a bad idea to use timers but I can't change it back now. So...is there a way to skip drawing frames?
The issue I am having is how to tackle forming a logo using circles. I have done one letter manually, however it would take forever to do this with every single letter, and so I am asking here if anyone knew of a faster method. Requirements:
- Has to fill non-circular letters(i.e. does not have to be precise, but look like it has edges)
- Circles have to animate in, therefore they need to have drop shadow and seem like they are landing in place
Okay, there are a few things I want to know how to draw in one-point perspective: a toilet, a shower, a bath; basically I want to know how to draw everything in a bathroom.
