I'm doing a project based on youtube videos and BitmapData Draw method. It works fine inside flash authoring but when I upload it on a web server the draw method does not work due to security issues. I tried different methods like
ActionScript Code:
flash.system.Security.allowDomain("[URL]");
flash.system.Security.loadPolicyFile("[URL]");
Or this [URL] but it seems there's no way to make it work.
I'm using the Youtube AS3 Player API to load video's in a Flash Project. I get this really annoying Error when loading the Player swf:
SecurityError: Error #2047: Security sandbox violation: parent: http://www.degoudenglimlach.be/main.swf cannot access http://www.youtube.com/[[IMPORT]]/s.ytimg.com/yt/swf/watch_as3-vflbgr4dW.swf.
I tried adding the following to my code before loading the swf but it doesn't make any difference:
Security.allowDomain("*");
Security.allowDomain("www.youtube.com");
Security.allowDomain("youtube.com");
Security.allowDomain("s.ytimg.com");
[Code]....
[code]Now, the above code works fine for some people using our software while others are experiencing the following error ( in faultHandler() ):[code Again, the error happens to some people and not for others.Have I missed something? Would it be a machine / browser specific problem? As a sanity check the above code works with the same .swf file in chrome, ie, firefox and safari.I have read about the crossdomain.xml and don't think that is the issue as YouTube have that defined.Finally, all users (intranet app) are using IE and the same version of flash.I have been pulling my hair out the past 2 days and asking the question over and over again "Why is it only happening for some users and not for other users?"
View 2 RepliesI'm getting a very annoying run time error message, which crashes my flash application when it runs in the browser. The error pertains to a 'Security Sandbox Violation' when I attempt to access Youtube's Gdata api. The exact error message reads:
Error: Request for resource at [URL] is denied due to lack of policy file permissions.
*** Security Sandbox Violation ***
When I run the SWF locally, everything works fine.
I don't understand Flash2004's Help about System.security.allowDomain().
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to use the Youtube Chromeless Player (the new AS3 version) in a Flex 4-based project. I'm using the examples provided by Google, but I'm not having any luck. The player loads, but it can't be interacted with. I'm receiving repeated security errors just from mousing over the player:

I've been at this for a few hours now, and haven't had any success. I also can't seem to find any working examples online. Is this new player just not compatible with Flex 4?
I have a mobile YouTube API-centric project nearly done. The last view is a component that is a player, naturally, and Flash is not diggin' the security issues at all. Violations ..... And I am passing my developer key in every call too! So what is the deal with simply loading a video into chromeless player on Android that needs my security attention?
View 1 RepliesI need to figure out a way to check if a crossdomain policy file has been loaded before initializing a certain component. The component won't work correctly if the crossdomain policy hasn't been loaded. Is there a way to do this? I can't figure out a way to get this working. This is the script I'm using:
System.security.loadPolicyFile("http://www.remotewebsite.com/crossdomain.xml");
I have a flash application that queries Youtube Gdata API for videos. However, since I published my project and uploaded it to my web server I'm getting a Security Sandbox Violation error:
Error: Request for resource at [URL] by requestor from domain is denied due to lack of policy file permissions.
I've added a crossdomain.xml file to the root of my site allowing access to all domains, and loaded both that file and youtube's crossdomain file to my project. I've also allowed the domains access (Security.allowDomain()). But I'm still getting the same errors, which renders my application useless.
how does it work?
Code:
var domain = "http://www.mydomain.com";
System.security.allowDomain(domain)
I can't seem to wrap my head around this image loading problem with my actionscript 3.0 project. I suspect it has something to do with how I have the crossDomain.xml set up. The problem is that I can load youtube movie thumbnail images from [URL] into flash and display them completely fine when testing/running the SWF in a stand alone (local) player. But when I upload the SWF and test it through the web I receive Sandbox Errors and Security Violations. Here is my crossDomain.xml (stored on the root of the server):

How to post variables to another domain. The other domain is a free cgi-bin service. So I cannot upload a shim movie there. That is, I need to post variables directly to a cgi script on the domain. Is it possible to do so?
View 5 RepliesSpecifically, the developer of a web service I'm trying to call has installed a cross-domain policy file on his server at:[URL] So, in my SWF, I'm calling this:
[Code]....
Of course, it's not there, so it fails to load. (If the developer could install the file at the root, I wouldn't have this problem, so I wouldn't be using System.security.loadPolicyFile in the first place). It's not just in the IDE - when I test the app in Firefox with Firebug, I can see that the SWF is attempting to load the policy file from [URL].
I've stripped down the SWF so that it does nothing else but attempt to load the policy file from the subdirectory, and it still fails. So, I don't think this has to do with any idiosyncrasies of my specific app. Bottom line - does the System.security.loadPolicyFile work? Is there something else I need to do in conjunction with that call to get it to work? Or, is there something I'm doing wrong?

I haven't fully grasped how the flash security model works, and now I've ran into a problem. I have a base SWF that loads a game loader swf, which in turn loads the actual game.What I'm trying to do is taking a current bitmap snapshot of the running game. This works fine before the loader swf has loaded the game. When the game is loaded, I get a security violation because the game has images pulled from facebook. Is this something that can be solved on my end, or restricted by security in the game swf?

It doesnt matter if I tried this on the first line of the 'Action' in the first scene or in the first line of the first .as file i am loading. (btw i am only working with .as file and not in the timeline). When i am importing flash.System.* the compiler complains he dont know useCodePage.

Loading the swf file and testing it on my machine works just fine... I think that may have something to do with me having the debugger version of Flash Player. When I push it up to App Engine to make it public, other clients access it and get a Client.Error.MessageSend Channel.Security.Error error Error #2048 url: http:[url].......I am using Flex 4 beta, and the App Engine Python runtime. I have tried full wildcard in the crossdomain, and even accessing the data endpoint at a relative URL so as to avoid this error.
My SWF resides on domain A, is loaded by a web site on domain B and is trying to ping URL (URLLoader.load) on domain C. But I am getting "#2048: Security sandbox violation" .. why? Of course I have read the manual, I saw the security white paper but I do not understand it. Don't you know any blog or such where it is explained for dummies? With lots of examples and maybe a table showing what is allowed and what is not?

View 2 RepliesI'm a designer considering creating a video project with Flash. I've read some of the security threads on the board, but they are way over my head. I will have a simple Flash file with text and a dozen imported FLV video files.If I use the "protect from import" option, will that keep the videos from being stolen from within the swf? Or, is that just a mediocre hurdle that can be easily overcome by someone wanting to dig into my file?

View 3 Repliesi wrote a flash script that is embedded into an html page. The flash script (AS3), needs access to the users microphone and camera. I've seen on other websites when they want to use my camera/ microphone flash automatically pops up a box asking the user to permit.
In my case, even though in my global settings for my webpage it says "always ask" under permissions, flash doesnt ask me anything and just blocks the script from accessing the microphone. The script loads fine, just doesnt prompt for access and the user has to manually right click, and go to settings and put setting to "allow".
Searching for this topic on google is rather difficult as there is too much irrelevant stuff with the same keywords.
Edit: This is how i embed just in case im not doing it right.
