I have a problem with using the webcam in flash. Most of the times it works fine but sometimes the wecampicture is not updated and is outputs a constant activity level of 100%.
View 3 RepliesUsing Flex, what is the recommended way of taking a webcam snapshot picture? Something along the lines of:
var camera:Camera = Camera.getCamera();
var image:Image = /* magic goes here */
I'm totally new to AS3 and I have an upcoming project on it. It's a virtual hairstyling project but I have no idea how to get the first part to work.This is how the first part of the project goes:First, it will ask the user to take 3 pictures of themselves using the webcam (probably some buttons that says "take picture"). These 3 pictures should be saved temporarily in the flash.After all pictures are taken, it will ask user to choose one that they like the best and will proceed with the next step. And if they don't like any of it, they can take the pictures again.

there is any widget, ready to use, to integrate with my website in order for my users to take a picture of themselves ala Facebook when they register to my site? i guess is Flash/flex based
I have a swf that lets you take a picture with your webcam , I have changed the scaleX to -1 so that the picture on screen appears like a mirror. This works fine, when I take a screenshot I am getting a bitmapdata from the video stream, which I am also setting scaleX to -1 to preserve the image the same as from the video. But now I am trying to save that picture as a jpg file, I can't seem to save the pictures as it appears, I can only save it as the original data which is essentially the wrong way around (doesn't preserve the changes made to scaleX = -1)
Code:
bitmapData = new BitmapData(this.video.width,this.video.height);
bitmapData.draw(this.video);
// at this point the bitmapData is the webcam view, but not with the scaleX I applied before
[...]
var jpgStream:ByteArray = jpgEncoder.encode(bitmapData);
// so now this jpg data is of the picture which isn't horizontally flipped
How can I get a bitmapData from the video and preserve the scaling I applied to the video?
I have made a flash webcam application to allow the user to take a photo of themselves using a webcam. I have successfully saved the photo in my localhost. However, I would like to set the names of those photos. Currently, the photos names are generated by
$uniqueStamp = date('U');
I also have a textfield in my flash app that allows inputs from user for the photo name. For example if the user write 'MYPHOTONAME' in the textfield, the photo which will be saved in my localhost will be named 'MYPHOTONAME' too. How do I do it in Flash and in PHP? Currently I'm having some problems because I cannot send the textfield string to PHP.
Here is my flash code to send the snapshot to PHP and let the PHP save it in my localhost:
imgBA = jpgEncoder.encode(imgBD1);
sendReq.data = imgBA;
sendLoader.load(sendReq);
[Code]....
As you can see, I tried to pass in $photo = $_POST['photo']; from flash to PHP however I do not know the exact code, can anyone help me?
I have problems with webcam streaming in AS2. In AS3 I can make it visible on stage with a Camera.get call and a Video object. Because of some reasons in one of my works I have to use AS2. Can anyone provide me a working code to make visible the webcam's picture on the stage? I use the following code, but it doesn't work:
var cam = Camera.get();
//it's okay I can see the real camera name in the name property
var vid:Video;
vid.attachVideo(cam);
//... and nothing happens on the stage Why?
trace(vid) returns "undefined" Why?

View 1 RepliesI want to make a picture gallery and use buttons that move you from picture to picture and backwards, but I don't want to tell button 1 to go to frame 2 and button 2 to got to frame 3 and so on (I hope you know what I mean)Can I use on button on a separate layer with the same action set? I tried something like that, but it didn't work:
on (release) {
thisframe =+1
}

but it didn't work. I'm kind of new to any action script other than gotAndPlay, easy functions and all that.
I am deploying Updates via SCUP and SCCM to hundreds of Computers. Fortunately Adobe provides an SCCM Update Catalog for both Adobe Flash ActiveX and Adobe Flash Plugin. But now my Problem: After publishing the Update via SCCM, the client is not supposed to be interfered with the Update Progress (which is working) I figured the Updater works like this: First SCCM checks if a Update needs to be deployed, if this is the case, The Flash Updater begins. First the old Flash Version is beeing uninstalled. But now: if the Client has a Browser Window (IE, or Firefox) open, the Updater is not able to install the new Flash Version and quits with an Error. This leaves the Client PC without any Flash (because its being uninstalled before) How can I prevent Flash being uninstalled due to the Update progress not working while a Browser window is open?

View 2 RepliesI recently used the loadMovie action to load a .swf file to a target in the movie which it was being called from. Then I tried calling a picture to another target in the movie, but it did not load the picture as intended. I read about it on my book, but it didn't seem to work. Is there anyways on calling a picture into a target in the movie without placing the picture inside an swf file?

View 1 RepliesWhy setloopback needs to be set to true for microphone activity to be detected. The problem is the echo feedback when using a macbook with a built in mic. Right now I'm experimenting with toggling gain, depending on activity to simulate echo reduction. Not optimal though.
View 1 RepliesIs there a way within ActionScript 3.0 to:
Get all URLRequests() that are made within the application?
Get all RTMP:// connections to a Flash Media server?
Since my application contains SWC files which were compiled by another developer, I cannot directly access the ActionScript which creates the URL requests and RTMP connections.
I have created an application in Flash and in the first frame u enter a number of parameters for the application. Then you press start and it continuose to the second frame. Here is all my code and mc.
Now I have created a RESET button and when it is pressed. I want all the functions, variables to be deleted i.e. nothing should happen.'
My first attempt was to just tell the main timeline to go to frame 1 (which is empty, only the textboxes with the param. are there), and i thought that all running functions from frame 2 would just stop. But they dont.
So how can i stop/reset all activity, cause i dont want to close the app. each time i would like to enter new values?
I have a flash project on the solar system. I created a drag and drop activity, dropping pictures near in the correct place/next to the correct name.
Everything is working perfectly but when I return to the home scene, the pictures are still being displayed from the acitivity even though they are on a different scene... they go away if I navigate through to different places.
I want my site's users to be able to record videos straight from their webcams into my site. Videowhisper is one such tool which seems to work fine - [URL] But I'm looking for opinions on better / more scalable / reliable solutions. Paid solutions are fine.
View 4 RepliesI have a very large projector movie with many loaded in swf files. I want to make it so as you are reading and viewing the whole movie the screensaver is not active. I then want it so after 10 minutes of no activity a screensaver (or movieclip in the movie) starts playing and then goes away when there is activity again. How do I do this? What would be the best way... just have the screensaver (movieclip) the only thing in the first scene and it just goes to this after 10 minutes?
