I have a function that reads bytes from a stream, but the bitwise shift left only allows you to shift up to 32 bits it looks like.
Code:
function ReadALong(obj:*):Number {
var val:Number = obj.readUnsignedByte();
for (var L:Number=1;L<8;L++) {
var Add:Number = obj.readUnsignedByte() << (L*8);
val = val + Add;
} return val;
}
I loaded a file into a bytearray and I would like to read the lumps directly into an object, sort of like you can with structs in C++.
View 1 Replieshow can I get the bytes loaded and bytes total, from a JPG i'm loading using loadMovie? the point it's making a loadbar
Code:
image.loadMovie("pic.jpg");
I need to read sound stream sent by flash audio in my C++ application (C++ is not a real limitation, it may be C# or any other desktop language). Now flash app sends audio to another flash app but I need to receive the same audio by desktop application.So, is there a standard or best way how to do it?
View 5 RepliesWhat I'm trying to do is get the total bytes of all the files I want to load and display the percentage loaded of total bytes and bytes loaded of all the files. Its a slideshow so i want all the files loaded and then it will play. I've looked at bulk-loader but it wasn't what I needed. The image are loaded from an xml file. I think I would need to create an Array and then find out the total bytes but I don't know how to reference the loader in the progress.

ActionScript Code:
var city:String = "Bath";
var xml:XML = new XML();
var urlloader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
urlloader.load( new URLRequest("[URL]") );
urlloader.addEventListener("complete", xmlComplete);
function xmlComplete(e:Event):void{
[Code] .....
The main part is where I have created the variable: IconGif... it reads a portion of the xml file and turns it into a rference that will eventually relate to an instance name of a movieClip. I was going to use:
ActionScript Code:
this.attachMovie(IconGif,IconGif,100);
to place the item on the stage to whatever the xml says that day,
My problem occurs because the function I have used to create the variable, clashes with the attachMovie function and I receive the message:
TypeError: Error #1006: attachMovie is not a function.
at weather_fla::MainTimeline/xmlComplete()
at flash.events::EventDispatcher/flash.events:EventDispatcher::dispatchEventFunctio n()
at flash.events::EventDispatcher/dispatchEvent()
at flash.net::URLLoader/flash.net:URLLoader:nComplete()
Whatever that means but when I try to call the variable outside of the function, it doesn't know what I'm no about, because as far as it's concerned it doesn't exist, but only when the function is being called. I'm not the wisest with XML and calling up data...
I have a function that makes an array and I am trying to read the contents of the variable outside the function but it keeps giving me the result as undefined.
I know there must be a simple solution to what i am attempting to do.[code]...
There's a RadioButtons group (=Group3) and event listener applied on it. The value of _root.choices3.a3.data is "a". The code is following:
trace("DATA BEFORE" + _root.choices3.a3.data);
var rbListener3 = newObject();
rbListener3.click = function() {
trace("I am inside.")
trace("DATA INSIDE" + _root.choices3.a3.data);
}
_root.choices3.Group3.addEventListener("click",
rbListener3);
If I compile it, the output is:
DATA BEFORE
I am inside.
DATA INSIDE
Why can't I read the value of _root.choices3.a3.data inside the function?
The trace commands illustrate the problem - The playString function does not seem to be able to read the array created by the getChord function. It reads the default values listed below.
private var chordArray:Array =
["6,0","5,0","4,0","3,0","2,0","1,0"];
private var chordArrayCopy:Array = new Array();
A little background - getChord function is called from one class file and playString function is called from another. I don't know if this has anything to do with it. But that's why these are public functions within a public class.
I have a flash movie that moves ahead in the animation based off the audio. I've broken the movie up into a few scenes so that I can keep things really easy for myself. However because I'm using the same function to read the audio in the different scenes I'm getting a duplicate function error. Original Function that works great in the individual scenes but fails when played together:
Scene 1Scene 2import fl.video.MetadataEvent;
audio.addEventListener(MetadataEvent.CUE_POINT, cp_listener);
function cp_listener(eventObject:MetadataEvent):void{

How to end the listeners after they have finished. I have no idea if that will work...
I have a public variable and I am trying to set it, then read it from a different function:

My trace results says null. Why does it not give me "hello"?
The upgrade version of FMS 3.5.3 append the new function about buffered stream, in order to resolve problem when the bandwidth no good caused the video getting more and more slow, but I can't find the configuration in which file.
View 2 RepliesI'm loading an image into a container. The container is simply a loader object with a progress event listener and a complete event listener. It is loaded when a thumb is clicked in the gallery and it displays the image larger.Basically it is possible to interrupt the loading process of the current load stream and load something else by clicking another thumb in the gallery before it's complete.
If you call loader.close() when nothing is loading, Flash will call back an error saying that there is no stream attached to the loader object.Is there a way to test if the loader object is presently loading, and if so to close it?

close another live stream B if opening when stream A is closed? Does FMS support this kind of logic?
View 8 RepliesOnly just getting started on this whole domain of learning, so go easy!If I set up a P2P video/audio chat (similar to the sample VideoPhone thing on the Cirrus site), can I get the stream from both parties to send to a server at the same time so that I can record it? If so, would I have to use a FMS to stream it to and perform the recording (and if so which version could I get away with)? Are there any (preferably free, or just tutorialised) solutions for the recording side of things?
Currently it seems like the only option for doing the P2P thing is to use Stratus/Cirrus unless I use FMS4 Enterprise.
how effective this kind of situation can be, in terms of quality of the stream and recording? Does any of this make sense?
I've had FMS running on my local machine for a while and have had a little experience writing FMS apps, but I've just tried recording audio for the first time using the standard vod application and I keep getting a "Write access denied for stream" error. My AS3 code is copied and pasted for various examples and am confident that it works.
I'm running Windows XP service pack 3 & FMIS 3.5.
I've had a look at the vod/media directory and under windows->properties the read-only attribute is ticked. Every time I un-tick this it reverts back to being ticked. I've googled this and MS say that most programs ignore the read-only attribute and that it only really applied to files. I've also tried the MS fix for setting the read-only attribute via cmd and still no joy (doesn't fix read-only attribute or FMS recording the audio after setting via cmd).
I've also tried our dev server install of FMS (running under linux) and am getting the same results.
Here's my AS3 code...
private function initApp(event:Event):void
{
removeEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE,initApp);

My Encoder is setup with three streams: Vid: 500 kbps - Audio: 48 kbpsVid: 800 kbps - Audio: 48 kbpsVid: 1500 kbps - Audio: 48 kbps I start the encoder and everything looks fine in the log. In my browser (Safari or Firefox) I go to my html site and the stream starts after 6-8 sec. But anytime with the lowest bitrate 548 kbps and nothing look like the stream is switching to another bitrate. I tried it with the smil playlist and the result is the same. Only the lowest bitrate is plublished.

I have recently installed FMIS 3.5.3. In checking the access logs I find data in both logs that display the same stream stop and stream play time .I'm not sure why the time is the same (00:19:27 example below). Videos play fine when testing from work (T3 connection). However, occasionally a very slight hesitation when playing video from home (I have cable connection). [code]...
View 4 RepliesI'm having a problem with recording a live webcam stream. The last few seconds of the stream is getting cut off.
The recording is stopped with the following piece of code:
vid.attachCamera(null);
vid.clear();
ns.attachCamera(null);
ns.attachAudio(null);
ns.pause();
What could be causing this? Is the stream cut off too soon? Is the client unable to send buffered data to the server?
I am having trouble getting audio stream meta data from an Akamai FMS stream. Everything is undefined and I'm not sure why. I am hoping maybe someone will notice something that I am overlooking. The stream is connecting and playing without a problem I just can't seem to figure out why all the meta data is undefined.

I have a layout with narration and a nav bar. When I click a nav button for section 2, the audio from section 1 (set to stream) continues to play over the audio for section 2. This cumulates so if I click buttons for sections 3, 4 and 5, I get five audio files playing on top of each other. Sections are individual movie clips with embedded audio streaming on a Sounds layer in each movie clip.

I am very new to action script. I want to stop the stream from publishing then later on i want to publish the same stream again. My problem is that I have 3 levels of stream processing (Ingress-Rename ProxyLimelight-AuthProxy-Live) before it goes live. User wants to stop stream from publishing and then publish the same stream when he wants in each level. User does not want to start the stream from the begining, he wants to restart the stream on the same where he stopped.

View 1 RepliesI am streaming flv file trough vlc media player running as http streaming server. So I am able to get the bytes but how to decode them?
Shoud I take float from the URLStream with readFloat() or plain bytes with readBytes()?
so i've tried a few different preloaders but it seems that the only one that works with what i'm doing is a preloader in a seperate scene.
my question: Is there a way to grab the bytes loaded and total from the main scene and show them in the preloader scene?
