Is there a free alternative to Soundbooth for adding cue-points to audio tracks for use in Flash? I seem to remember that you can add them to the file itself (I think). I know you can do this with FLV.

I am an Adobe Flex developer and I am sick of Eclipse. Is there an alternative (free) IDE for Flex? I am aware of Tofino, but I can't get that to work on my MSVS Express editions, and I don't want to buy the whole thing.
View 5 Repliesis there any other framework that does the same as amfphp? I dont want to use amfphp because it hasnt been updated in years and looks like it's no longer under development, I have to use PHP so I'm looking for a PHP alternative.

View 3 RepliesI have a flvplayback component onto which I am loading a video. To mimic next frame and previous frame actions I am adding cue points to the loaded for every second of its length. The next frame /previous frame functions implement seekToNextNavCuePoint and seekToPrevNavCuePoint on the video. But its not working the way I expected it to.
Here is the actual class file. You can directly compile it with an fla file containing button instances in the library for play pause stop... Also you would need some sample flv file.

This has been a long time question, why, when you bring illustrator artwork into flash does it add so many unnecessary control points to the object? something as simple as a circle with 4 happy control points in illustrator suddenly becomes a 20 control point circle when brought into flash. It has been this way forever and I know that there is no setting to change this?

Recently started with a school project where I volunteered to do the scripting of (supposed to be) a simple game.The game: Animals make noises, by clicking on the right animal (associated with the noise such as a bark)you can make them stop. You need to get 8 animals right in 10 seconds (for sample). If you get that right a "win" animation starts, if you don't a "lose" animation starts. My problems:-Randomizing sounds within a set time limit.-Click the right object a that time to get a point.I searched the internet but in most cases I need to combine several scripts which has ended up wrong.
View 2 Repliesdirect me towards a Flv encoder, for mac, that is capabale of adding/inserting cue points. Preferably free, or cheap.I have been searching all across google but all I can find is "Moyea Flash Video MX", which in it's mac version isn't even capable of adding cue points.
View 1 RepliesI have a list of flvs that are selectable with buttons and I would like to add cue points to the individual videos to trigger other events and I'm afraid my skills are lacking here.How do I target an flv in a list to add cue points and how do I target these cue points to trigger movie clips?
View 3 RepliesI've got some flash 2.0 code that is supposed to add 100 points after a hitTest.
Code:
function onEnterFrame(){
connectA();
var strandID:Number
function connectA(){
for (var i = 0; i < 100; i++) {
if (this.hitTest(_root["A_" + i])) {
this.strandID = i;
_root.total = _root.total + 100;
}}
The problem is that it adds 100 points 70 times per second (the frame rate). It's supposed to add 100 points and stop. Here's a little more info: the hitTest makes two movie clips move across the screen together. Maybe because they're constantly hitting as they move, I don't know.
Each time I click the "fold_btn" I need to be able to add 10 points and display it in a text box (rot1_txt).
Code:
on (press) {
_root.rot1_txt = 0;
_root.rot1_txt = _root.rot1_txt + 10;
}
Not working!
I have a video object inside a flash file. I am using NetStream to attach a video to the video object. How can I add cue points to the video ? Should I add a cue point to the video object or to the NetStream ? (I am using Flash 8.)
View 3 Repliesadd multiple instances of an object to the stage at different but not random points.
For example - I have a box that is linked to a class file. In the class file I have an "ADDED_TO_STAGE" event listener. The function that is called places the box at a certain position on the stage say.... x=100, y= 200.
In the document class I create an instance of it like so -
_box:box = new box();
addChild(_box);
Now what I want is to create multiple instances of box on the stage every 5 seconds. But I don't want them all to spawn at (100,200) on the stage. But here's the catch, I don't want them to be random spawns either.
for ex- I want the first instance of box to spawn on (100,200), then 5 seconds later, the second instance to spawn at (200, 800), the third at (100, 500) and so on.
Would it be possible for me to create objects on the stage to serve as reference points for where i want the instances to spawn instead of writing the exact co-ordinates?
I have been tasked with trying to create a drawing tool that draws dotted lines as you drag the mouse across the stage. I can easily capture the points on MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE and store them in a vector and then draw the points as dots:
The problem is that I need to calculate evenly distributed points on an ever growing Vector of points so I can only draw the line between say every 5th point (say using modulus). I have been battling away with Bezier curve equations both Quadratic and Cubic but still can't quite figure out how to convert my Vector of points into an evenly distributed Vector of Points without sucking the life from the CPU.
We have developed a magazine reader which is basically PHP application. Admin panel is built in PHP but when any user wants to read a particular magazine, it is handled by Flash i.e. we are embedding the .swf object with HTML in PHP page. But flash is not supported in iPad/iPhone. So we want to create this application in Xcode so that user can read the magazine in iPhone/iPad also. There is confusion how it can be accomplished.
View 1 RepliesI would like to have a flash app on a website where:A user can input some values Those values are then sent to a server which has an executable fileThe exe is run with the user's settings and then sends some data back to the userThe data is displayed in the flash app.Is it doable with CGI or is there a better alternative to this?
View 2 RepliesI'm making a Flash app in Flash 10 and ActionScript 2.0 and need support for calling an EXE with some params and minimizing/close the application.
Neither Adobe AIR nor Zinc don't seem to support some code I made and I'm looking for a very simple alternative? Does anyone know about any?

View 2 RepliesI want the content of a local text file to become available inside JavaScript. I've achieved that using HTML 5 FileReader API, but this works only in Mozilla Firefox and Chrome now. I know that it is possible to create a cross-broswer solution using Flash. Is there any open-source project that do that?
View 1 RepliesI'm currently loading a remote swf through as3 (with a domain policy to allow all from that domain - the policy file can't be changed by myself), that i want to take a snapshot of. The problem is that the main swf that i load, is loading child swf's from another domain that does not have the allow all policy turned on.. This makes the snapshot feature call a "sandbox security" error. I'm wondering if there's an alternative to the bitmapdata draw function to still take a "snapshot" without conflicting the sandbox security.
View 3 RepliesOk we all know that you can embed assets with Flex using the [embed] code.
But is there anyway to achieve something similar to this when working with only Flash?
For example:I need to create a class (that contains certain assets) that needs to be used in the Flash IDE, but I don't want to have to drop all the assets into the library for every Flash file that happens to use the class.
I am running into some real problems with importing a png and associating it with a movieclip.Basically I want an image (image1.png) to appear inside a blank movieclip on my stage called "image1". I need this to all run from the library and not from an external folder - thus this does not work for me : loadMovie ("image1. png", "ClickReveal.image1");Is this possible? Or do I absolutely have to run from an external folder or convert the png to a movieclip by hand and then use attachMovie? I am desperately trying to avoid those options.The reason is that I am building a template file here and the users need to be able to import their own images which may be called anything and need to pop into movieclips.
View 1 RepliesWe have a project that has been built in Flash and as3. It is a video player of sorts that we want to fully customize. We have different images and color schemes that we want to be able to change very quickly. Right now we have config constants that we turn on and off for different schemes. And in the code there is a massive amount of different spots where the images and such are changed.When we create a new color scheme or whatever, we need to create a new config. Then we have to go through all of the code and put it in correctly.Basically any suggestions for how we can take the current flash project (maybe flex?) and make it customizable a lot quicker.
View 1 RepliesI am not advanced yet, but i know what exactly i am looking for and want to do. After doing Air/Flex i came to a stage i need "Flash Media Server Xversion"

I'm building a website at the moment and in the design it shows a scrollwheel in the form of this example.I've got no problem creating this using something like scrollable or some other similar plugins, however, they don't allow you to click and drag through the images and "flick" them in such a way as the flash example. Do you know of any plugins that allow you to do this, or even know how to modify something like Scrollable to do this?
View 2 RepliesI have previous experience with AS3, but not so much in web development. now I want to install a game in facebook, but since im very uninformed,i'm having a bad time chossing the best option. I have three alternatives to integrate my flash app in facebook.Adobe actionscript API: Until now, I tried it and worked for me to log in , get friends, and that kinda of basic. Has a ton of problems and bugs, and i decided to switch.
FMBS seems to be the best option, according to most people feedback in forums, but it's going to be deprecated and i don't want to invert effort and time in an option that is going to be dipossed.What do i have left ?, iframe ? Javascript ?
I'm looking for a way around using flash for video's on a site. Any suggestions for something that might work across multiple browsers that isn't flash based?
