I want to make an auto-play for some flash-based web-game, but I don't know how to capture and monitor the request from the flash client to the server.
View 1 RepliesI'm wondering if it's possible to have a server-client networking, based on a UDP or other fast protocol, suitable for fast paced multiplayer game?Server side code doesn't have to be written in actionscript, but it would be good that I don't go out of flash borders. The most important is that client must not install any plugins or other stuff, except flash player itself and client code must work in a browser, so no desktop apps like adobe AIR.
View 1 RepliesI have created a client with Flex Builder which works in a browser but also in an Air windowed application. I must connect it to a server and it has to do asynchronous request related to changing data of the server.Because of the too much expensive cost of LiveCycleDS license, I was looking for other ways, maybe open source and i found the following solutions:
Adobe BlazeDS
Granite Data Services
WebORB Community Edition
I want to ask you which is the easy way to create the solution described above, expecially i want to use J2EE application server type.
Is it possible for flash to open ports to listen for messages from the remote server? If so, how?
View 2 RepliesWe're writing a flash application that can download a MP3 file, convert it to a Sound object, get the raw data and make some processing (like adding sounds, change octaves). After the processing, we want to send the data back to the server in chunks, so the server will be able to glue the data together and recover the new generated file. The problem is: if we send to the server "wav" pieces of sound, we are able to glue them together without any problem in the generated file. However, if we convert each wav piece to a mp3 file (so we can send a smaller file to the server) and join the mp3 files at the server, the result is a sound with some problems at the merge point.
This is how we load the mp3 file from the server:
sourceSnd.load(new URLRequest("sample url to mp3"));
sourceSnd.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, carregou);
This is how we convert each piece of mp3 to bytearray and wav:

I want to write application for facebook and vkontakte, which will consist of such main blocks as: SocialNetworkAPI (which include all work dedicated to social networks: posting to wall, get all user's info) and ServerAPI (which will send HTTP POST requests to my Java based server and receive data from there in JSON).
I am looking now to Adobe flash URLLoader
is there any good ServerAPI libraries, which I can use or rework to prevent rewriting standart code lines.
Here's what I want to ho: In firebug, there's a Net tab, where you can see all requests, which javascript is making to the server.I would like to be able to do the same with a flash object.What is the best way of doing this?
View 1 RepliesIn one web page we use a flash upload control but becouse a flash bug in the upload event the session is lost as its posted back with a new session. We have thought of using a table with ip and old session id or a query string with the old session id in order to reassign it in the uploaded event...Knowing the old session id how can i reassign it to the client? (In C#)
View 2 RepliesI have a spring BlazeDS integration application. I would like to log all the request.I planned to use Filter. In my filter when I check the request parameter. It does not contain anything related to the client request. If I change the order of my filter(I have spring Security), then it prints some thing related to spring security.I am unable to log the user request.

View 1 RepliesI have the following JAX-RS service.[code]...
The JAX-RS service receives the request and respond successfully with some dummy response, but I have no access to the request.data field.
How do I access the data of the request message (which is {"type":"get_configuration","data":"some data"} in this particular example)? I think that I'm supposed to add some parameters to the handleMessage method like
public SomeResponse handleMessage(Object message) {...
but this does not work at all. The request got 415 response.
How do you capture errors that happen on client side when building RIA apps using Flex and Silverlight? What are the common practices? I have seen some asynch js calls to a web service implemented but would like to know how the community is dealing with it.

I'm currently working on a project - an online education system, and I need to make it possible for studs to introduce themselves in a 30 sec audioclip. I need to implement it with Adobe Flash. The problem is that I have no idea how the Flash + Red5 duo work together. There aren't that many helpful recourses online, at least for me since I'm a beginner at Flash. (I do mostly PHP stuff.)
1) When you connect to the server, how do you make it record audio from flash client? 2) After 30 secs, how do you stop recording and save file in a specific folder on a server?
I would like to know if it's possible to capture a users webcam in flash and directly upload it to YouTube without a backend server setup. Or if there are any third party providers that support this service. I see YouTube offers a live streaming API, but it seems it's only available for selected users.
View 1 RepliesI am trying to create a flash player to stream an on online Internet radio station using FMS. I chose FMS after being told that I need RTMP server to extract the metadata. Our radio audio is being encoded using a DJ interface called SAM Broadcaster. But for some reason, it does not have an option to send over the stream directly to a Flash Media Server. Only options are either IceCAST or ShoutCAST. How should i setup the stream? Should it be Stream encoder>> IceCAST/SHOUTCast Server>>Flash Media Server>>Flash Player Client. Or should I setup Stream Encoder>>Flash Media Server>>Flash Player Client? Shouldn't Flash Media Server be an alternative to IceCast or Shoutcast? If that is the case, how do I send over the stream from SAM Broadcaster directly to Flash Media Server without restreaming through another streaming server?
View 2 RepliesWe have a setup where we have one application that multiple clients use.For each client we setup a seperate vHost on the server so that each client has a FMSCore and FMSEdge process running for their application.We currently monitor the processes to see if there are any problems with them on our production servers, but we would like to know if theres a way where we can link each process to a particular client so that if one goes down we are able to record the effect and notify that client.
View 1 RepliesI am interested in making a RIA in Flex that will communicate with my server. The application will be downloading and uploading very often. It will need to be able to download hundreds of images over the course of its runtime. However, I have read that Flash does not support threading. Would this be a major problem if I want the UI to run smoothly while the application downloads and uploads in the background?
View 1 RepliesIs it possible to use Flash (or a Flash compatible service) to allow players in a game to host their own games (using their own bandwidth), through a web browser? In a way, to run their own game servers (for a Flash in-browser game) from their computer, but through a web browser using Flash?

View 1 RepliesWe are currently in the process of trying to connect a c# server from a flash app. This hasnt been a problem so far - we have simply used the Socket class.We now have a requirement to encrypt the stream using SSL/TLS. This is no problem in c#, but much more problematic on the flash side. So far we have found two options: As3crypto lib, and AIR 2.0 SecureSocket. However, neither option has proved to be successful.
As3Crypto - TLSSocket
Using this method when we execute the code, the server throws an exception - this appears to be due to As3Crpyto's PARTIAL support of TLS.
AIR 2.0 - SecureSocket
We are currently using the latest Flex 4 SDK. We have imported AirGlobal.swc to alllow us to create a SecureSocket in a similar manner to the TLSSocket. The code builds but does not run - some File Not found error or something - probably because SecureSocket is not found in the runtime. I assume this is because AIR is intended for desktop applications rather than apps embedded in a browser.
So, now we're stuck. We have the option of encrypting the data instead using some PGP algorithm available in the As3Crypto lib. However, we would much prefer to encrypt the stream using something like TLSSocket or SecureSocket.
I have a Flash client that I want to connect to a server. Both are using localhost and port 50000 so there shouldn't be any cross-domain problems. I also set Access Network Only in the publishing settings. When I call the XMLSocket connect, the server seems to get a new connection. But, the XMLSocket.onConnect callback is not called with success=true.[code]...

View 1 RepliesHow can the disconnection or Closure of the flash client be detected while using a php backend which ensures that only active client usernames are present in the datbase. My approaches were to use some polling method - where the client sends some message to the server periodically else the server deletes the client's name from the DB assuming it is closed - or to use some augmenting javascript code that informs the backend of a closure event.
View 1 RepliesMy client wants to create an online Flash game. Once they have completed the game, they are awarded a score, which is passed and logged on a server. This score determines whether they win a prize at the end of a set period, depending on the scores of other players.
I need to consider a situation whereby a user wants to cheat by intercepting and modifying the data that is sent to the server. Although I have considered, and would obviously use HTTPS, this wouldn't prevent the actual player from doing this.
It seems to me, that I can't have any kind of secret that the server has knowledge about within the Flash, as this will accessible to the player.
Even though a lot of people on this site seem to be suggesting it in other posts, I am not sure that using an obfuscator is an option due to the value of the prizes at stake. We have used this technique before for lower value prices.
I'm trying to reproduce a POST request that was captured from WireShark using PHP. This POST request was sent by a Flash (.swf) object, so it's a little bit complicated in configuring the header.It does not print out anything in the end, so there must be something wrong with PHP code that I could not see.Here is what WireShark captured:
POST /engine/ HTTP/1.1
Host: abcdef.com
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:2.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/4.0
Accept: text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8[code]....
The result is a blank page instead of response from server.

I'm building a Flash-based Facebook game with a Java backend, and I'm planning to use a RESTful approach to connect the two of them (not a persistent socket connection). I'm using the AS3 library to connect the client to Facebook, so that's where I have my session information stored. However, how do I authorize client connections back to the server? I can't leave the callback URLs open since that'd let people manipulate game state without playing the game. I need to make sure that the calls are coming from a valid client and through a valid session.
At the moment, users have no direct login to the backend server -- it's all handled through the client frontend. Can I pass the Facebook OAuth2 access token to the backend in a way that the backend can verify its validity? Should that be enough to trust a valid frontend connection?
I could do a two legged OAuth signed request or just use a simple shared secret, but the keys would have to be packed in with the flash client, which makes that almost useless for this use case.
