I'm trying to import an image and assign it to a Loader object, which works just fine, though I want to use the PNGEncoder rather than a the JPGEncoder, because if the source image has an alpha channel (transparency) I want that data preserved. The code, or the encoder, or something is preventing or deleting the alpha channel data. What should be transparent is showing as white.

I have this FLA with animation and when played, the animation has alpha channel. I cant understand why when I look in the library I see the frames without the alpha channel and also when I try to export/extract the image again the image dont have alpha channel. How is it that in flash this image has alpha channel and how to get it out like that into PNG? Here is the link to download the FLA:[URL]..
View 1 RepliesIs it possible to import a QuickTime movie with alpha channel into an FLA and have the FLA recognize the Alpha channel? When I've done this, it just shows opaque black instead of an alpha channel. I need that black to be transparent so I can see the layers below the video layer.
View 6 RepliesWhat is the best way to create a video with an alpha channel, suitable for flex/flash? Does it need to be FLV, or can it be MP4/MOV as well?
View 1 RepliesI have this FLV movie file that's got a premultiplied alpha channel and I want to insert it into a webpage to play as an animation, I imported it into flash and that's where I'm a bit lost as to how to make it appear transparent
The video looks to be inverted so background is black and the animation is white so if I try to publish it like that it just stays the same so it doesn't look right
I'm trying to accomplish a similar effect as seen on :[URL].. I suspect its just perlin noise displacement with a loop on the DisplacementMapFilter to decrease/increase the distortion over time as well as an alpha tween. I have been able to spy that they are using caurina tweener, which isn't of interest to me.
Its the principle I'm after, not a copy of their effect. I'm trying to assign an alpha value to say, the White/Black area of a PerlinNoise generated Bitmap. Where the White would be 0% and the dark 100%. And have that White value increase over time so that the entire image, the filter is applied to, gradually fades into view.
How is a movie clip programmatically alpha'd? I've tried everything in my .as script, I run the movie, and nothing happens.
View 4 RepliesI need to send a live streaming to Adobe Flash Media Server encoded with on2 VP6 8 bit alpha channel (chroma key) so all clients see only the speaker with no background.what hardware or software support realtime encode VP6 alpha channel
View 1 RepliesI am experimenting with video using the alpha channel capability of the FlashCS3. I followed the tutorial on the gotoandlearn website on how to create chroma keyed video. I exported an avi video file having removed the background. Ive used Flash video encoder for VP6 and flash player 8 with encode alpha channel ticked. However my swf is not showing the video, just a white blank where it should be. It puts out the audio only.
This is the log file.

i can now getPixel() from a external jpg but what i finallly want to achieve, is getPixel32() the alpha value is always FF(255)
[URL] take a look on this sample~ in this sample the photo is partially transparent, i can see that in photoshop if i put my code in this file, the color picker can tell the alpha changes. that why i still think there is a chance for getting the alpha value from external .png~ just don'y know how to achieve it T_T (i've try transparent png and also alpha channel added png, doesn't work like the sample)
Code:
import flash.display.BitmapData;
import flash.geom.ColorTransform;

I have some png images which were converted to movieclips and exported. I would like all clicks on the transparent parts of the png to be ignored by a movie clip on a closer layer and have a movie clip under the transparent parts receive the event. Is there a way to do this? When I convert the symbol to a movie clip, the authoring tool automatically puts a bounding box on it so all clicks in the bounding box are detected. I tried searching mouse events and alpha channel stuff on the forum.
View 3 RepliesI have a little video showing a text animation on a black background. The alpha channel is encoded. I want to integrate that video under flash but I want the alpha channel to be taken into account and I don't know how I can do that. After integrating the video, I get always that black background, how can I remove it?
View 4 RepliesUsing Flash CS4. I have some images with transparent backgrounds that I'm putting into Flash. Placed in Flash at original size, transparency looks great. However, when I scale the images to any different size, the edges of the alpha channel get real rough, not smooth and aligned to object. I've experimented with png, targa, gif, but all seem to have this problem. Is this some issue with Flash? I don't remember seeing this problem in say Powerpoint.

View 1 RepliesI want to check a hit test between a point and a png bitmap with an alpha channel. I know bitmaphittest is for 2 bitmaps.

I have a strange issue with the FLV files i imported to my site.These FLVs were imported with Alpha channels.In my site there is a button, that when its pressed for each FLV it starts playing.The Problem is after its been playing for awhile there is a strange Noise at the background that starts appearing slowly. (Please see attached file)The only code i have on each FLV is for transparety and a Loop (Plaese see below):
onClipEvent (load) {
this._alpha = 0;
this.dir = -1;

On my stage I have 2 empty MC holders, each of them in a seperate layer. In the bottom mc holder called 'map' a map image is loaded from my XML file using MovieClipLoader. This works fine.
What I want to achieve is that on top of the map, 24 PNG images with Alpha channels are loaded into seperate MovieClips attached in MC holder 'projects'. For every PNG image a MovieClip from my library is attached in order to determine the hit shape of the PNG image. This works fine too!
However all of sudden my first 2 MovieClips with the PNG images in it dissapear as soon as all of the images are loaded. But when I roll over on of the other MovieClips they suddenly show up again and when rolling out they dissapear again!
It has nothing to do with my XML file nor my PNG images, because when I move my first 2 XML nodes (the ones that are dissapearing) to the end, 2 different MovieClips dissapear! It worked absolutely fine before but since I added 2 more MovieClips the problems started. It almost looks like I can't load more then 22 PNG images, but that would be extremely weird.
I tried creating the first half of the MovieClips in one MovieClip and the second half in a different MovieClip, but that doesn't change anything. But when I create the first half of the MovieClips in the _root and the second half in a MovieClip, only 1 MovieClip dissapears instead of 2!
I really don't get it. I'm totally confused and lost since I don't know what else I could try.

I have a Video object which plays a video with an alpha channel.

View 3 RepliesI tried to playing around with the augmented reality. Therefore I watched the tutorial (http:url....) and all works like a charme to me. I replaced the kramer.m4v with my own video. It works perfectly.But I want to have my own video on a transparent layer.So that I can see myself not within the background of my video.Therefore I did a video on a greenscreen and keyed the background. All seems to be ok!I exported the video in an .mov with the alpha channel. It works so far, but the black background is still there if i hold the marker to the camera.so my question is: Is it not possible to export a mov with the alpha channel to let the background go away?
Any hints or workaround? I just want to have a video with me speaking on a transparent background and not with teh black background. I changed the kramer.m4v in the HELLOFlar.as to kramer.mov (its with my own video, just the name is the same) but the background isnīt gone

As usual I've come across something easy to do in Flex but not in Flash. Flex has ImageSnapshot and PNGEncoder to get a .png out of a display object. Any way to do this in flash without using a 3rd party API as I can't distribute a license with my app. I'm using Flash CS5. I wish there was as much support for Flash as there is for Flex. I've had to write my own tree component, if I'd have used Flex I could have just used the Flex tree component. I'm hoping I don't have to write my own display object to png class myself.
