Is there a way to detect the privacy dialog box for allowing/denying microphone access has been selected/closed (so sound recording can be started)?
View 1 RepliesI am trying to get the Privacy Settings Tab to show in our flash/flex4 video chat application we are building.I have 2 systems with latest Flash installed (currently 11.1.102.62). However, the player always shows this (privacy popup question) instead of this (privacy settings tab) when loading the app.The reason i want the settings tab to show is because i need the end user to easily check the "remember" box. I have tried to call Security.showSettings(SecurityPanel.PRIVACY); before as well as after the getCamera/getMicrophone calls but all that happens is we get 2 popups instead of 1.and still no "remember" option.Actually it doesnt show the privacy tab at all!Searched tons of forums but have come up empty.I have also searched the adobe docs but all I find is a paragraph stating"if your computer or device doesn't support audio or video recording using Flash Player, you don't need to allow or deny access, and this panel doesn't appear".Which is hardly true since one of the systems we are testing with is a new Macbook Air running latest OSX.Does anyone have any insight into why this might be happening and how to display the "Privacy Settings" and not the "Privacy pop-up question"?
View 1 Replieswhat is probably a basic question...I have a Flash app that needs access to the microphone. The code is:var mic:Microphone = Microphone.getMicrophone();That initiates a dialog box where the user allows or denies use of the mic. What I was to do is have my code pause at that point, and not proceed until after the user has made their choice (allow or deny). I assume there's gotta be an easy way to do this, but I haven't discovered it.
View 4 RepliesIt appears that if one has a mic available, then one can add an event listener for the StatusEvent. However, this only tells you if the mic has been allowed or disallowed.
What I'd really like to do is detect if the static Microphone.names property changes. I would have expected this property to be bindable.
If I right click and select "settings" immediately after plugging in a mic, I can see that flash has updated their list of available microphones. However, there seems to be no way in code for me to receive the same update.
The docs say "Calling Microphone.names requires an extensive examination of the hardware, and it may take several seconds to build the array." So I think polling this every few seconds is not a feasible option.
I want to check whether the microphone is connected to the system or not. If not, it should display a warning message and not allowed to record anything. All this should be done through actionscript3.0.

So far I have not found such a function. In the meantime I am trying to overload alsa functions e.g: snd_pcm_readi to see if I can get the samples before flash treats them, but no success so far.
As a matter of fact, since I have no idea how both sound and microphone class work internally, I don't know exactly which alsa functions they call.

View 3 RepliesI'm setting up an application where I need to record users' voice every so often during the course of the users' interaction with the application. Recording is fine, and the quality is fine, but now my issue is understandng how Flash handles the microphone when it gets attached to a stream for publishing.Basically, the problem is that when I "publish" my stream, the voice gets cut off (clipped) at the beginning. So, I initially thought this may have to do with buffer settings on the FMS server side, but it wasn't. Then I investigated client side stuff. For some reason, my internal mic .activityLevel property is -1 even though I have called Microphone.getMicrophone(). According to Flash's documentation, this shouldn't be the case:
activityLevel propertyactivityLevel:Number [read-only]Language Version : ActionScript 3.0Player Version : Flash Player 9The amount of sound the microphone is detecting. Values range from 0 (no sound is detected) to 100 (very loud sound is detected). The value of this property can help you determine a good value to pass to the Microphone.setSilenceLevel() method.If the microphone is available but is not yet being used because Microphone.getMicrophone() has not been called, this property is set to -1.I am using a timer to investigate the microphone .activityLevel property every 50 milliseconds:
package
{
import fl.controls.Button;
import fl.controls.TextInput;[code].....
Is there a way to detect when the user accepts the Privacy Pop-up?
Basically, I'm using the microphone to record a voice message. I'd like to start a countdown timer that tells the user how much time they have to record their voice.
I start the countdown timer on the same event that I call nsPublish.attachAudio(microphone), and the countdown starts immediately, even though the user sees the privacy pop-up.
Adobe is, in my opinion, intentionally deceptive on a number of levels about the privacy-invading cookies that Flash stores on your machine. These are NOT the cookies that get deleted when you clear your browser cache. These cookies remain on your machine until you MANUALLY DELETE THEM. And Adobe know that most users are not technically proficient enough to even find where they exist.There is a good site that describes how to get rid of them here: [URL]

We are working on flash camera project. We want to ask user to allow or deny camera access first on page load. then after few seconds we want to start camera and take photo. If User deny camera (or flash) access, we do not want to start camera. and If user allows permission for camera (or flash) access, we want to start camera and take photo.For this, We are using "Security.showSettings(SecurityPanel.PRIVACY);". This code is user for ask permission to user about their camera access.So, it is show Privacy Pop up in flash. But, how we can have control on that pop up

View 1 RepliesThis is not an issue with action scripts it's regarding the privacy and secureness in a flash based website. WIll it cause any harm by giving someone the websites' FLA (just for checking purpose)? Can that person do any harm to the web in future? If yes, what are the possibilities? (online transactions, database info, virus, etc...)
View 6 Replieshow to check that user has allowed or denied webcam access in privacy settings dialog box to the site?
View 4 RepliesMy web-app records users via webcam and microphone. I want to use HTML/JS for the controls and content, so I created two separate Flex modules: * A "Webcam Setup" module that lets you choose your camera and mic input devices * A "record" module that lets the user record and submit the recording
When I embed either of these on the page, since they access the user's Camera/Mic object, Flash shows the Privacy dialog that says "[mysite] is requesting access to your camera and microphone. If you click Allow, you may be recorded."
The problem is, if I answer Yes in the Setup module, and later add the Record module to the page using Javascript, it again shows the Privacy dialog.
Is there a way to avoid the second privacy popup?
I would think that saying "Yes" for [mysite] would store that permission for at least that session, but apparently not.
What I've tried I tried combining them into one SWF, adding it to the page once and moving the DOM element with jQuery's append() function when needed. When I move it, however, it reloads and asks me again.
I have developed flash audio and video chat application, every thing is working fine with all browser with in XP(os), but I have problem in Mac(os), i.e., I cannot able to click on Website Privacy Settings panel allow button in Mac 10.5.8, cursor is pointing on allow button, when am clicking on it nothing is happening, and there is no probelm in XP, I can able to click on Allow button. How do I stop or disable appearing Website Privacy Settings panel before webcam starts. I went through with [URL], here its allowing without appear website privacy setting panel for only one user that also for that particular PC only,i wanted to get allow for all online web users by default allow with out appearing website privacy seetings panel.
View 4 RepliesFrom a Flash object, I would like to be able to detect the presence of a webcam that the user might grant access to, without actually asking the user whether they want to grant access. This is to streamline a large application that has extra features if a webcam exists — if there is a webcam, the application will present several dialogs that lead up to the normal cam-security prompt, but if the user doesn't have the hardware, I want to skip over them altogether. Requesting access to the cam before those dialogs won't make sense to the user.
It appears not to be possible to call Camera.getCamera() without the security prompt happening. Is there a workaround? (For instance, could I, perhaps, call getCamera in a hidden Flash object and inspect its return value, or does it block until the user acknowledges the security prompt?)
I've created a rather simple Flex application using Flex Builder 4, which connects to a webcam on the user's PC. To do so, Flash is presenting the user with the infamous privacy warning.
Now, the problem is that user can't click on the panel, as it seems unresponsive to any user interaction.
Some more details:
Firefox 3.6.12 on Mac/OSX, Snow Leopard.Adobe Flash Plugin 10.1.85.3 / 10.1 r85The Flex app is working fine in its own window/tab but the problem shows up as soon as the html page with the Flex app is embedded into the iframe of another page.If I artificially put an Alert box before connecting the camera, the user is able to interact with the Flex application but as soon as the Privacy panel is shown, the Flex app stops interacting.
The app works fine under Chrome and Safari but I have not tried this under Windows.I've read that there are problems with CSS positioning so I removed any CSS style impacting the Flex app.
Before I change my strategy and get rid of the iframe (which will cost me quite some effort) I'd be happy to know whether others have experienced the same problem and if there are workarounds.

View 4 RepliesIn my main flash page I'm trying to have other swf files load into it. When I test the movie in flash, everything works as it should. But when I upload it to a server, it only allows one swf movie to load. Anyone know why this is? Does it have to do with security?
View 4 RepliesDid you notice that, at least inside Firefox 4, Flash cannot go above 50% CPU? Of course there are valid reasons for that, but it's not the topic.
About a week or so ago I stumbled upon a SWF that managed to use 75% of my CPU. (It was doing 3D stuff) I would like to know if you guys know if there is a way to reproduce this; maybe Adobe put some option somewhere in the API? Or maybe it's specific to what that SWF was doing.
That would be great for games or web applications on which users are entirely focused and can therefore afford to dedicate more resources.
Unfortunately I can't find the URL anymore, I think it was some Alternativa3D demo or something. Not sure.
I made some animated buttons, and now I'm trying to assign script to them to link them to their pages, on the script box it says I cannot assign script to them? Is it because they're animated or am I going wrong somewhere else? It's in Flash CS3, I can upload any files as a link if I've not explained myself well enough
