ActionScript 3.0 :: XML - Parsing Encoded Content?
Aug 4, 2009
I'm working on creating a widget that displays the local weather forecast. I have the RSS feed I'm working with, but in that feed, there is a tag for <content:encoded> It looks like this:
HTML Code:
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h4><a href="http://www.rssweather.com/zipcode/56303/wx.php?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss" title="Saint Cloud, Minnesota Weather weather forecast"><img src="http://rssweather.cachefly.net/images/fcicons/sunny.png" alt="clear" class="icon" width="55" height="58" id="sunny.png" border="0"/></a><span class="sky">Clear</span> <span class="temp">72�F</span></h4><dl style="display: inline;">]]></content:encoded>
What I want to do is to be able to grab the URL for the image and use it in the Flash movie..I can parse the rest of the XML just fine and it works perfectly for what I need...except for that one image I want.

is there a way to resize an flv? i have a client that gave me a set of FLVs that a previous designer made for him. the client no longer has the original mpgs. these flvs are much larger than we need them for the new site, and if i just resize them from flash on playback they look terrible and are an unnecessary longer download. i tried importing the flvs into flash's encoder, flixpro and squeeze and haven't had any luck.

I put the h264 packets into flv file with the flv file format in video_file_format_spec_v10.pdf. I used CodecID=7(AVC) and filled video data with h264 encoded packet. But it doesn't work. The codec lib is x264 with CABAC enctropy. The test.flv file in attachment is what I created using x264. Below is the media infomation about test.flv.

When I try to import an MP3 file (specs below) I just bought off Amazon into Flash CS4, I get an error that reads "One or more files were not imported because there were problems reading them." I tried other MP3 files and they worked no problem. Does anyone know if there's a specific type of MP3s that Flash hates? Maybe I need to convert my MP3 to be encoded differently?

I have an XML that contains Spanish text. I noticed that when I traced out this XML to a string characters that contain accents where not correctly represented. I tested this by tracing out a single character, "è" and the output is "é"race("è"); //outputs éHow is this resolved in ActionScriptSample of the XML that is affected:

I need to convert a base64 encoded string from a server (being sent via amf) to an image. on the server the raw image data (gif / jpeg / png) is being encoded to base64 (which already works fine), and I need to decode this string and display the image in my flash movie.

I've created a simple drag-and-drop dress-up game. The aim is that users will create a monster by dragging and dropping, and that an image of that monster will be sent to me, and I will create a toy that looks like the monster.
So once users are happy with the final look, and have filled in their details on the page, I would like them to be able to click a button that will send me the encoded jpeg of how the swf currently looks. I could then recreate the image using image magick or something similar, I guess?
I realise that this may require PHP, but as I have never used it before I thought that perhaps it may be possible to use getpixel to get an encoded text string of the stage and then send that to myself via "mailto"?

I found an old thread which showed how to get javascript to send flash a variable obtained from the URL which loads it's html page [URL].. It works a treat in Firefox but for some reason in IE it doesn't show the swf file it merely shows a white box where the swf should be and a scrollbar next to it.

I have a string of of base64-encoded PNG image that is suitable to use as a src (source) attribute in a <img> tag. However I need to transfer this image to Flash applet where I need to create (show) the image fast. Is there a way to simply use the data string and somehow create an image (inside a Flash movie) from it?

I'm developing a flex application that displays a list of images along with some metadataThe images are less than 500kb. They are stored in the database as base64 encoded stringsretrieved using PHP, send over to flex as XML (which creates a fairly large XML output file)Now my problem is that, while I can display upto 2-3 images easily, anything more than 3 or sometimes 2 images will cause the images to be corrupt. Sometimes the whole app fails.I am guessing this is due to the large size of the generated XML. I know I am doing something wrong here. I want to know what is the proper method for storing/retrieving a lot of images in a flex application.

trace("è"); //outputs é
How is this resolved in ActionScript?
Sample of the XML that is affected:
'<month name="month6"> ' +
'<link.content document-href="tn5684" section-href="tn5687" document-type="SPECIAL-TOPIC" rank="1" link-url="">Bebé prematuro</link.content> ' +
'<link.content document-href="tn8416" section-href="tn8416" document-type="DP-TOPIC" rank="2" link-url="">¿Cómo puedo tomar decisiones informadas sobre mi bebé extremadamente prematuro?</link.content> ' +
'</month> ' +
The text appears in a List Component. I am changing the font around to find one that might work but this is not working. Anyone know how to represent accented characters in a List component?
Update:Loading the XML document from an external file does not have the same problem:
var myXML:XML = new XML();
myXML.load("someXmlFile.xml");
//This works
However I need this xml to be built into the SWF. So am creating the XML from a string:
var xmlString:String = "<root><textNode>bebè</textNode></root>";
var myXML:XML = new XML(xmlString); //This breaks the encoding?!
So I was using Flash Develop to edit the actionscript that contains the xml. This was apparently not encoding the text correctly.

I have an environment where strings are percent encoded by Actionscript escape() function and then passed to Java for decoding.I have for example a test string "m é". It is passed to Actionscript escape() that outputs "m%20%E9" When I try to decode it with Java:
URLDecoder.decode("m%20%E9", "UTF-8")
The result is:
"m ?"
%E9 seems the unicode point for "é" character, but it is not quite understood by Java decode.Is there a way to decode in Java the strings encoded by Actionscript escape()?What escape format do these function use since they seem to be different?

Flash will be receiving a Base-64 encoded image (from a web service) and need to convert & display that image on the stage.
For conceptual purposes, I'm omitting the web-service aspect for now and just reading in a Base-64 string, generated from an online service.
Now that I have the data into Flash, how do I properly convert it to an image and display it.

It is my desire to transmit some data encoded in Action Message Format (AMF3) over a socket to and from Flash. I need to know two things:
1) How to read AMF3 data off a Flash Socket object. I'm assuming it will come through as an array of bytes and that array of bytes must be decoded into actual Actionscript Strings/Arrays/Objects or whatever.
2) How to turn Actionscript vars into AMF encoded binary strings.

I am able to record sound from microphone, encode it using SPEEX and write into ByteArray. I want to play it back. If I try using Sound object the audio is messed up. Speex uses 16kHz for encoding and Sound Object needs 44.1kHz for playing audio. How am I supposed to play this encoded sound.

I am creating a program that is effectively an sprite creator. I'm very new to AS3, but I know JQuery, JS, PHP, etc. After going through multiple steps of selecting pieces to customize a character, you are supposed to be able to download the final product using fileReference(). Everything works, and I can download the image in the end, but the problem is that I cannot capture all of several movieclips on the stage, I can only capture one. Maybe this will help clarify:
[Code]...
Could it be that each of the movieclips I'm adding to the sprite have children of their own?

Probably this feature is in the next generation of FMS 4.5 However, it is said this can be achieved with some manipulation of files with current FMS. Can we do a 2-way live video session.
UserA(in webpage flashplayerV11 beta: encode using H264) -> Flash Media Server -> UserB at iPhone(either HTML5 or others to play the live video in RTMP/RTMFP)
Next step will be the reverse:UserA(in webpage flashplayerV11 beta: decode using H264) <- Flash Media Server <- UserB at iPhone(either HTML5 or others to publish the live video in RTMP/ RTMFP)Better to use UDP based.Seems the HTTP live streaming incurs huge delay 4-8sec; not really working for live video chat sessions.. So how Skype handle this on iOS? with its own encoding/decoding?

I have a legacy file format that contains sounds embedded in it (in various encodings). I would like to be able to play these sounds in Flash (Air?) by reading the sound bytes out of the file and instantiating a Sound object with them.
If the sound is unencoded (e.g., raw pcm), I've found that I can use the new flex 4 SampleDataEvent.SAMPLE_DATA event to play the sound.
However, if the sound is encoded (e.g., mp3), then I'm at a loss. The sound expected by SampleDataEvent.SAMPLE_DATA has to be raw pcm. From what I've seen, encoded Sounds can only be instantiated by [Embed]ing them, or by using a URLRequest with Sound.load().
