ActionScript 3.0 :: Import Image Into Movieclip From User's Harddrive Without Upload To Server
Feb 12, 2010
Basically im building a flash based drum head designer for users to upload their own image, resize, add text etc, then it be uploaded to a web server when they complete the purchase.
I have all the server side part working, able to send a 2800px square image and compress it into a 1.5MBish jpg.
the problem im having is for the user to upload an image into flash. I've seen prototypes where it uploads the image to the server, then flash loads that image, then upoads the completed one, but this uses alot of transfers.
What I hoped to achieve is something similar to the system on the [URL] website where the image is stored in the cache first. I have spent hours looking for resources on importing user images into flash without uploading first.

I've looked on Adobe's Flash Player guide and in the official docs, but it's not mentioned. I'm creating a game that saves your progress to the local drive using SharedObjects and want to reassure users about what's going on

I am trying to work out if FMS is the solution I am looking for. I am trying to create a system that will store data, and upload it to a database when the user leaves the page. I thought the best way to achieve this would be to send a data object to the media server, check on an interval to see if the user is still active and then somehow upload the data when their "session" times out.

As far as I know, what I ask here isn't possible, but I thought I'd ask anyway in case I'm missing something.
Suppose you want to let users upload JPG images, and these images are scaled into smaller icons and the original images are always discarded and never required again. Is there any way that would commonly work in most modern browsers that would let the user select a single image on their hard drive, have that LOCALLY turned into a thumbnail and upload the created thumbnail to a server?
In a case where the server just needs a small image, it would be wasteful both in user time and server resources to proceed uploading the whole image, only to immediately discard it. It would be much better to just scale it on the client.
I can imagine three options. Just plain HTML/Javascript, using Flash or using Java. If this were possible with Flash, that would seem like the best option. But reading flash.net.FileReference documentation, it seems that you can upload a file from the HD yes, but you cannot look inside the file you are uploading. On the other hand, if you enable "can access local files" in Flash publishing options, it seems that you can then no longer access the net, so that doesn't work.
With HTML/Javascript, it is possible to load images and display them on a <canvas>, but if you try to access the pixels of these images, you get security violations, so that doesn't seem to work.
Java I hesitate to use, because only 96.52% of my users have it installed, and the file upload dialogs I have seen implemented in Java (at Facebook for example) have not worked well (unresponsive interface). I wonder though if Java is the only thing allowing resizing images from local HD?

I'm using Agile Uploader in my project to resize image before upload on client side.And it works fine except one thing: if image name contains cyrillic letters it fails with server error 500.
How to avoid this or if needed how to rename file with english letters "on fly" (possibly with javascript).

How to upload an image to the server using php code in actionscript 2.0?

The purpose of this is too allow a user to upload an image from their machine to be displayed on a website. The code's pretty straight forward and i have it all working fine, but have come across an issue. When certain portrait images are selected to be loaded and displayed, they get rotated at some point in the process and become landscape? There doesn't appear to be any consistency to the way they are rotated. Some are clockwise, some counter clockwise.
The one thing i've noticed though, is that it doesn't appear to be an issue with images that have been re-saved (so simply taken into photoshop and then saved without any modification), only images that are the original source of an image taken by a digital camera? This has got me wondering whether there's a possible issue with flash reading the meta data of the source image? The attached zip file contains the source code and swf, a selection of images from 2 different camera's and a modified image.
Just to note, due to the dimensions of the images, in the source code the bitmap is scaled to 0.1 so that the result can be clearly seen. I've tested this without the scaling and the image still gets rotated. There's a trace in the Event.COMPLETE handler of the Loader.loadbytes() method and you can see from this that the width and height of the loaded image have been switched? Note - due to the size of the zip file (4.6MB) because of the images, i've put them up on my server for download instead.[URL]

I'm trying to snap a bitmap image from within my application, and upload the bytes directly to my server to save as an image. I'm trying to same three separate images, three different sizes. I am able to do it twice, but as soon as it tries to save the third image, it throws a 2176 error...
ActionScript Code:
var url:String = 'myUploadURL';
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url);
request.contentType = 'multipart/form-data';
[Code]....
I've tried a 3rd party class which wraps the byteArray and sends the data. This too works the first two but not the third.
Is it because I start by calling a function on mouseClick, that snaps the first bitmap then uploads, then snaps the second and uploads, then snaps the third and by the time it tries to upload, Flash assumes the function is 'too far away' from the mouseClick, and doesn't think it comes from user interactivity?

I want to embed a flash to my site, that allows the user to paste an image which is in clipboard, and this images will then be uploaded to the server. Is there a script that can do that? i googled for about an hour now, but didn't find anything that fits my needs.
the best thing would be if you also coul crop your image when its uploaded and then save it.
it's most likely to upload screenshots, so that you don't have to first save it, crop it, and then upload it.

I'm using Flex 4.5 in a Mobile air for android application. So, Using the Camera/Camera roll [URL]I want to do a simple upload using amfphp Note: Since this is how you get pictures on devices, i cant use the filreference because it wants you to get the pictures using "browse" which cant be done on android or ios My plan is, after I select a picture or capture one with the camera, in the event I can get the local url to the picture that was taken like this:
[URL]
I'm putting this in the imageURL var (i'm assuming i should make it into a byte array to transfer it, im not exactly sure this is my first time making something like this)Here's how i'm taking that image, making it into a byte array, and using amfphp to send the upload to the server:
protected function upload_btn_clickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void
{
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(imageURL);
var urlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader(request);
[code]....
But i'm getting an error NetConnection.Call.BadVersion.This is the first time im trying something like this so im not even really sure if im going about it right. All the examples I find online go about using the fileReference class, but that seems to require me to use the "browse" method, and im on a mobile application that uses the camera and camera roll to grab pictures off the device, and im not sure how to incorporate that into the fileref class. I figured i could just get the byte array and send it to php myself and it should be just fine.

I have been using [URL] to create an flash file that creates a picture of an movieclip. But this only allows me to download the image from the flash, not upload it to a ftp server and to a database. The php file looks like this
<?php switch ($_POST[format]) { case jpg: header(Content-Type: image/jpeg); break; }
case 'png':
header('Content-Type: image/png');
break;
if ($_POST[action] == prompt) { header(Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=.$_POST[fileName]); }
echo base64_decode($_POST[image]); ?>
and I want the function if ($_POST[action] == prompt) to upload the image to an ftp and a database?

I need to make a form that allows the user to upload an image from their own computer, then dump that loaded image into a movie clip, and allow them to move it about on stage, and possibly scale it. I have the upload function working, it allows me to select a file, and i have the server side php to dump the images on the server, but im not sure how to go about dumping the image in the movie clip after the usser has selected and uploaded it. Ive found stuff around the net that dumps the file into a scroll pane, but im not really sure how to modify the code to work with a movie clip. I think dragging and resizing will be cake after that, because theyre functions ive used before. But i just cant seem to get past this upload hurdle.

I am using a PHP upload to upload files to server. I have a loop for the 5 files to upload....
ActionScript Code:
if (PDFFiles[i] != false){
PDFFiles[i].upload(uploadPHP);
}
As the loop runs quicker than PHP can upload, the success of....
ActionScript Code:
function fileUploaded(e:DataEvent):void {
trace "Success"}
....can get out of synch. It doesn't cause me any real problems but is this bad form? Or am I better to upload one file the wait for the PHP to return success before uploading the next one?

I now have a Windows PC and I purchase Adobe Flash Media Server 3.5 software and install.I but server space on a managed server arrangement.I upload my pre recorded Flash clips to the server and my website and playlist to my host. Basically the website is channelled via http and the clips via RTMP. The key question that no one inside Adobe seems to be able to grasp (or answer) is ~ will it work if I stream my own clips?! or is it inferior to say that of a professional streaming company.The streaming companies charge anything from $125 to $250 a month, a big cost for someone like me, streaming around 1000mb a month. So does anyone out there have direct knowledge of this software and can you stream via rented server space without using a streaming company?

How would I go about setting up a situation where, I preferably create a motion graphics piece in After Effects and turn it into an swf. The piece will ,say, have a head shot photo of someone as the background in the movie. I want to create a situation where the user can upload a head shot photo and their uploaded photo will become the new background in the piece......is this possible? I've seen sights like jibjab and oddcast where the user can superimpose themselves into silly animations .....so I'm assuming it must be possible?
