i am rendering a BitmapData from my webcam and sending the rendered ByteArray(i cant compress using ZLIB because its not running on AIR) file as binary to a server side. problem is each JPEG picture is around 40kb and it needs to be compressed a bit.now i am not talking about resizing the image, just making the file size smaller. anyone know how to do this?

View 2 RepliesThe BLOB field (pic) is turning out as 0 Bytes when trying to send ByteArray through as3 to PHP, so i assume the PHP script or the HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA isn't working.I think the Flash part is working, I have set a trace() to see if the bitmapdata is coming through and it seems it is, so I'm assuming its my php side.3

i want to do some cryptographic routines in my flash. I've encrypted .jpg files on my server, so I can't use simple Loader class, to download that data as Bitmap. I'm thinking to:
1) download it with URLLoader as BINARY data in ByteArray class.
2) decrypt the data
3) convert to BitmapData. (..., is this possible ?
how could I do image crypting in fl.
I need a function to change an ByteArray to BitmapData in 1 function:
makeBitmapData(bytes:ByteArray):BitmapData
Is this possible? Cause all I can find about this is first put the bytes in a loader. add listener to the complete event and then call a function that make the bitmap/bitmapdata. can this also be done in 1 function?
is there anything that will take a very large png (even larger then the total pixel limit of BitmapData) and load in the png as raw bytes into a bytearray and then take that array and grab only portions of the image to be able to generate a grid of usable bitmaps to render the very large png..I got to the point where I was able to get the png as a bytearray but from there I don't know how to grab a portion of the bytearray and attempt to load the partial bytes in a loader via loadBytes()..basically I think I need a decoder to decode the partial bytes to a bitmapdata.
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to grab the BitMapData from an Image, convert it to JPG, and send it to a server where it will be written to a file. It "looks" like it works, the resulting .jpg is the right size and displays in an image viewer, but there is no picture... just an off-white background. Here's a code snippet:
imgTemp.addEventListener(FlexEvent.UPDATE_COMPLETE , imageLoadedHandler);
...
private function imageLoadedHandler(event:Event):void {
if (imgTemp.width == 0) return;
[Code].....
Then send "ba" to the server where it's written as a .jpg.
The data "looks" right when I receive it on the server, correct length, bits look the same.
I am using [code]...
In the 4th line in the code above i am getting "Error: Error #2030: End of file was encountered." I checked the length of the pixels object which is 4 times the width*height of the rect object. Given that setPixels() functions reads unsigned int from bytearray and sets that value to pixels, I think it should work.
But I have no clue why this wont work. The pixels object is filled after RLE decoding of the data which i get from a server.
Is there any work around or any other method which I could try to use. The loader class wont work as the data that I get from the server is not in any of the recognized format.
The is my first attempt to build an air app, so the solution to my problem may hopefully be simple.

View 3 RepliesI am working on a game, made with Flash (using AS3) The game has a fast ball and when this ball hits an object it has to make a sound... but the sound starts with delay (so the ball is far away when the sound is played).This sound is edited by me and it hasn't got any silences at the beginning.The method i'm currently using is the simplest one:
public var sonidoPuntos1:sonidopunto1 = new sonidopunto1()
and then...
sonidoPuntos1.play()

btw, first I used assigned thumbContainer as the mc argument (outside the loadThumbs() function) and it worked but not exactly what I wanted... because I thought it is supposed to update when the movieclip is animated but it actually didn't... when I use a scroller, only the thumbs that are first loaded to the stage get the reflection..
I've been using BitmapData.copyPixels() to draw graphics onto a canvas (Bitmap).I need to rotate the resulting graphics without the use of draw() because it's vastly slower.How can I rotate the target graphic? I'm assuming that there might be a formula or library that I can use which will first reorganize the pixels that make up a graphic based on an origin (point) and radians.I'm pretty certain that I'm not capable of creating such logic, so if there are any known libraries that do this, that would be awesome.I'd like to achieve something similar to XNA's SpriteBatch.Draw() method, which accepts rotation as its 5th argument.

I'm trying to solve a similar problem as was described here - to create a Windows Service for taking snapshots of rich webpages (html+js+flash) and saving them to a PDF file.
The bundle Firefox+cmdlnprint did the trick for me. I wrote a simple program running as a service that invokes Firefox to make a PDF. All seems well, the PDF gets created, but Flash is completely missing. Although, when started not as a service, Flash renders just fine.
Can anyone shed a light on what blocks Flash from rendering and if there's a workaround?
I'm working on a SmartVersioning ad using MediaMind using ActionScript 2 (the publisher doesn't allow AS3).
Skipping over how it's implemented - basically what I have is a collection of MovieClips on the main timeline that contain a swappable image (through the Smart Versioning service). You can only define objects as Smart Versioning objects if they are on the main timeline.
What I'm doing with this is using BitmapData to use the assets on the main timeline as a source for the graphics throughout the animation.
Should be as easy as:
import flash.display.BitmapData;
var bmd:BitmapData = new BitmapData(143, 230, true, 0);
bmd.draw(_root.person1);
attachBitmap(bmd, getNextHighestDepth());
