ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash.net.Socket Rate Limit - Transfer Data?
Jul 30, 2011
Is there some built-in limit to the rate at which flash.net.Socket can transfer data? When downloading from a server on localhost, I get a speed of about 5.8 MB/s consistently, while downloading directly from the server (outside of Flash Player) I can over 100 MB/s. Also, if I start two or more concurrent downloads, they all (individually) go at about the same 5.8 MB/s. The CPU use is under 100%. This program demonstrates the phenomenon. Running with NUM_DOWNLOADS = 1, I get

I'm using a .swf to connect to a socket and stream data as fast as possible for 60 seconds to measure connectivity speed.In other words a speed test.In the past say month or two, I've found Macintosh systems 10.5 and higher experience a significant slow down, In testing I see my socket connect and reach about 2.5Mbps - 3.5Mbps and literally stick as though the .swf was throttling the connection.
This 'problem' is random and appears to come and go. I've tested this in Chrome,Firefox and Safari with all the same results.Using the exact same test on any Windows or Linux OS works totally fine.Admittedly I'm an ActionScript novice however the code I'm using is below and has worked for some time up until recently.
ActionScript Code:
var s:Socket;
var Tbytes:Number = 0;
function connectToSocket():void{

I have a Flash game I made way back in 2008. It runs super fast these days. Way too fast in fact. I have it set to 60fps in FlashDevelop, but I think that is just limiting the amount of draw calls. I think my logic is executing well past 60 times a second these days. I haven't done ActionScript in a while, but I noticed that I am using an enterFrameHandler that executes my logic loop. It seems to have no constraint set on it. It just fires away as it is called I believe. Is there any way I can cap it at 30 or 60fps?
UPDATE:As some ActionScript knowledge is coming back to me I just thought of something. Isn't the enterFrameHandler bound by what the fps is set to in Flash or FlashDevelop under project properties?

Can anybody tell me if it is possible to limit the bandwidth or screen refresh rate that a flash movie uses? I have a large number of virtual desktops which use RDP and flash performance is terrible.
If I look at a site in IE that use lots of flash, my RDP session can even hang sometimes or more likely become completely unusable.

I have coded a program to accept several text fields in Flash and then transfer them (using a defined Class function, sendExample with sendPhp) and display them with a pfp form. When I run the swf from my pc it transfers the data correctly (the php file is on my hosted server.) However when I transfer the swf to the server (along with the class I defined to do the transfer), the php file is called but no data is transfered. What is missing from the server to make the data transfer complete? No errors, just a php page with no data inserted.

I have site with an audio player and a few galleries.The problem is that the audio starts loading at the beginning. And when you click on a gallery, the audio already uses all of the download speed and therefore the galleries load slow.Is there a way to limit the bit-rate flash the swf uses to load the sound?[code]

It's not exactly that, but it works the same way. It's about a login form with Flash and PHP. It must send data (username and password) to PHP, PHP has to check for a record in MySQL and then to return data to Flash. How does it works and how to return the data to Flash?

I am using the flash platfrom to create a player that will load sound that have 8KHz sampla data rate, but the default data rate is 44.1KHz.
Is this somehow possible?
Is it even possible to use also 4KHz?
Also is it possbile to get 16bit sample, not the default 32bit?

This is not something new I'm sure and a lot of people have found or are looking for a solution for stablishing an encrypted data transfer between flash and php but the wiered thing is that there are few resources when I try googling about this so, all I'm trying to achive is to encrypt data in flash with a key or something (I don't want to build my own algorithm, I'd like to use some standard ones like MD5) and then send the data out to a PHP file and after the php read the data it will also encrypt and send the results back to flash...
I was happy and downloaded the as3crypto class from google code... installed and ran it and it worked for the first tests... then when I tried using that method in my project I noticed that the encrypted data being sent from PHP to flash, sometimes does not work! again I searched and found out that some other people are also having the same problem and are saying that this as3crypto does not work well with sending data to php!!!I'm out of time and out of mind so what should I do if I want my data sent to php and vice versa to be encrypted? or maybe I'm using that as3crypto thing in a wrong way?! I did exactly as described in the above sample blog.

I need to transfer data from a flash application running in a browser to a server running php. If I use an https connection will that be enough to ensure that the data sent from flash to the server is encrypted and sensitive data can't be sniffed, or do I need to do encryption in my flash application itself?

I know there are a lot of topics already on this. I have read (hundreds of) them and I'd still like your input.
If I have a flash UI that takes user input and passes it to PHP; is this secure?
I have read that, yes, this is okay. I have also read that no, you need to encrypt the data, by say hashing it before sending to PHP. OK, easy, I do this already but.....
In my case I have the data/password stored (when the user inputs it, not in the swf of course) and sent every time I want to access any PHP (using AMFPHP). The PHP check this password each time and only runs if it gets the correct password. So in this case if I hash the password, it makes no difference, it just changes what the password is rather than providing any actual security (well maybe minimal because it's less recognizable).
So can someone extract a password that is sent from flash to PHP?

However, no matter what I do I can't seem to get data from my components to a PHP file on my server.Ultimately,I am making a flash form that will submit the form data to the PHP script and make entries into a mySQL database.Before I do that, though, I thought I'd first just try to see if I could get data processed in PHP.So,I created a simple PHP file that simply displays the data on the screen, and I made a single-button flash movie that has some actionscript in it.Here is the code for the PHP file:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"><html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"><head><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />[code]....
And here is the code for the actionscript I have in my button:
on (click)[code]....
I'd like to note that my actionscript is a direct copy/paste from the Adobe online reference for actionscript 2 (with a change to the php path, of course).I upload everything and visit the page with the flash button in it.When I click the button, I am taken to the .php page as expected, but the only thing I get on my screen is "...and that's all I've got."
firstName, lastName, and age never get processed.Eventually, I'll be wanting to send data from form components.But as a first step, I can't even get this working correctly. Does anyone have any insight?I'm using Macromedia Flash 8 (I'd love to upgrade, but Adobe won't let me since it's part of a suite...and I don't want to upgrade the whole suite.

I'm trying to make a barebones, simple flash client communicate ANYTHING to a server over a regular socket. I setup the listeners:
socket = new Socket();
socket.addEventListener(Event.CLOSE, closed);
socket.addEventListener (DataEvent.DATA, onSocketData);
[code]...
And then I connect. On the server side I have a simple policy server on port 843.And then the real socket server that the flash client is connecting to.The flash client connects to the policy server and gets the policy. The flash client then connects to the actual socket server. I know this because I can both see it when snooping the network traffic and the fact that the Event.CONNECT fires off. From snooping the network traffic I can see the flash client send data TO the server when it:
socket.writeUTFBytes( "TEST CLIENT
");
From the server app I can see the data the client sent. The server then returns a little data. I can see this data going from the server to the client in the network traffic snooper. However, the client NEVER sees the data. It never fires off DataEvent.DATA or ProgressEvent.PROGRESS or ProgressEvent.SOCKET_DATA. There are no errors and the connection remains open for as long as I want it... but the flash client never seems to see the data... no matter how much I send.
Over and over I read online that the data sent to the flash socket needs to be terminated with a � zero byte. I can verify it is in the network traffic snoop.if I try to read any data from the flash app via something like readUTFBytes it always returns nothing found.

I'm looking for the smallest way to transfer data from server to flash. The data being sent is already quite small such as this json object
Code:
{
"id": "value1",
"name": "value2",
"moreTextData": "more string data"
}
Probably about 30 of those at most.

I am struggling with the following situation. An addToCart button adds an item to the PayPal cart with the code below, which does work, but has the result that the visitor is directed to the PayPal site during the shopping process. The transfer of the data should however happen in the background and the visitor should only be directed to the PayPal site when the view cart option is clicked. Is there any other way to transfer the data than having to navigate to the PayPal Site?[code]...

I've read some books on creating stateless websites, I've read some about stateful client applications, but a lot of complexity comes along when you have to combine both. We have a Flex application that needs to persist data to a database via .NET services. Things to keep in mind are:
- Concurrency (optimistic/pessimistic)
- Performance: Flex needs to load in lots of data so lazy-loading is often necessary.
- Do you use Dto's to transfer data between server and client?
I'll tell you the history of our product. We've used SubSonic from the beginning as a o/r mapper. SubSonic objects are converted to dto's written by us and these dto's are transferred to the client. Clientside the dto's are converted to the domain model. If clientside a domain model object needs to be saved, it is converted back to a dto and send to the server. Server side the dto is converted to a subsonic object and saved to the database.
Now, some time ago, we needed the domain model on the .NET server side... so now we have like three models on the server side, the subsonic model, the dto model and the domain model. The dto model is more simple and resembles the database more, the domain model has much more logic. It gets complex... We now have to synchronize the AS3 domain model code with the C# domain model code. If we could do it again (of get time to refactor) I think we wouldn't use the dto's anymore, but transfer the domain model between client and server. Dto's are simple objects so easy to transfer. Domain model objects can be very complex.

I am attempting to use an online Flash file to communicate and pass data to a device linked to a client machine.I have got the Flash to work using sockets and when run from the same machine as the device it works fine.However, the flash file needs to be online and I need a way to allow the data to be passed. At the moment it won't connect to the socket on the client machine (I just get a connection failed message after about 10 secs) and I believe that this has to do with the security settings.
I am looking into Cross Domain Policy files as a way of securing the connection, but all of the information present suggests that these are only applicable to server machines. Can I put a Cross Domain policy file on the client machine that would allow the online flash to access one of it's sockets or will a CDP file on the server hosting the flash file be able to allow access to a client machines sockets?
