ActionScript 3.0 :: Create A Series Of Scripts That Will Create Some Custom Event Listeners?
Nov 14, 2009I'm trying to create a series of scripts that will create some custom event listeners.
I have three movie clips on my stage. One is a movieclip who's sole function is to hold array's and the event listeners. A second which moves around the screen. And a third that is motionless.
The problem is that the argument I want to test (which activates the custom event) is held within a string.
What I want to know is, how do you test to see if the string argument is true?
Is it something similar to this:
var myCode:String="1<0";if(myCode){
trace('one is smaller than 0'); //Strangely apparently one IS smaller than 0!!!
}
I think I'm going about this in the wrong manner, however this is the only way I can think of this working... (since I need to be able to dynamically create these events)

View 1 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: FLVPlayback And Metadata?
Sep 20, 2008I don't know why, I don't know how, but for some reason setting the FLVPlayback.bufferTime property to anything past its default value of 0.1 will (more often than not) make it so the .flv metadata does not ever make it to the video player. Granted, this may also have to do with my slow connection, but I know I am not the only one who has had this problem hose of you who have made players with custom seek-bars know the lack of metadata is can be a problem because the FLVPlayback.totalTime property is set directly from the"duration" property of the FLVPlayback.metadata objecty suspicion as to why this is not a more widespread issue is due to the "one video per player" nature of players on websites. I don't believe that players often reuse the net connection of the same FLVPlayback control to load one video after another (however, I could be wrong, this is all assumption on my part anyways).1) The FLVPlayback's net connection is reused (that is, you call the load() or play() method several times during the lifetime of the videoplayer.
2) You notice that occasionally meta information is never received when you increase the buffer time to a value above the default.3) Your seek-bar does respond or you get a run-time error when you try to seek (most likely because totalTime property NaN and the playheadPercentage property relies on this value)The simple solution (or so I am led to believe ): set the buffer time back to the default value before every call to the new connection. In other words, make sure that the the FLVPlayback.bufferTime property is set to 0.1 before calling the load() or play() method for a new video. This will ensure that the metadata is properly received by the component for playhead calculations.
Code:
//assume we have an existing FLVPlayback component
myFLVplayback:FLVPlayback = this.flvPlayer as FLVPlayback;

Add Metadata For Searching To FLA Documents?

View 4 RepliesProfessional :: Edit A FLA's Metadata?
Nov 1, 2011For the longest time, I've been tearing my hair out trying to figure out why my CS4 FLAs were getting larger every time I did a Save and Compact. I finally tracked it down to the @#$% metadata. Every time you save an FLA, it appends a useles chunk of metadata to it, that looks something like this:
<rdf:li rdf:parseType="Resource">
<stEvt:action>saved</stEvt:action>
<stEvt:instanceID>xmp.iid:BD2F8041D0ACE01185F1A1E26A912C41</stEvt:ins tanceID>
[Code]....
This can be viewed in Flash by going to File -> File Info... -> Raw Data.
On frequently-updated files, this junk can easily add dozens or hundreds of K to the size of an FLA. So my question is this: Is it possible to edit an FLA's metadata?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Add Metadata To Live Stream
Apr 14, 2010I'm having some trouble finding out how you can add metadata to a live stream. I'm streaming the webcam over fms and recording it in main.asc. So far so good. I have 2 applications. One that sends data and one that recieves data. The functionality is more or less like this example. The article says: "Note: If you record the video on the server side (a functionality of FMIS), the injected events are lso being triggered by the recorded file." That is what I want, but I have no idea how to make it happen. The problem is that I can't find any good examles for as3 and I have never looked into as2 (still new to flash in general )

ActionScript 3.0 :: BulkLoader FLV Metadata Error ?
Jun 2, 2010I'm having a particularly frustrating issue with the BulkLoader API [url] that I thought perhaps someone here might be able to help resolve. What I'm trying to do, is to capture the metadata from a loaded .flv (through Bulkloader) so that I can check its duration. In all my efforts to facilitate this, Bulkloader either misfires once the video has loaded and/or returns null. For the sake of preventing redundancy, here is what I've tried/checked so far...
-I've pulled the metadata of my video(s) through a simple custom net connection... so it is there, and I can grab the duration this way. However, in this particular case, I need the data from BulkLoader.
-I've encoded/re-encoded the video(s), and have also injected custom data. Still no luck.
-I've changed the loading parameter "pausedAtStart" to true, as suggested, and have used netStream.seek() to jump to later frames or back to the first.
Needless to say, this is a very frustrating issue that I just can't seem to find a way around. Here is a link to my source files w/Bulkloader library: [url].
Here is a look at the code:

Aug 11, 2010I have an extremely simple video player swf (actually copied from the snippet in adobe help) that progressively downloads and plays an flv. I added a line to display the bytesTotal. When I use a url in the code that points to a flash video on my server, the bytesTotal metadata is not being read or displayed properly (in Safari it displays it as 4294967295 - the highest possible 32-but number, and in FireFox it displays it as the same as the bytesLoaded). However, if I change the url in the code to point to an flv on another domain, it displays the bytesTotal correctly. So, apparently it has something to do with my server. I tried changing the mime types in my .htaccess file to:
AddType flv-application/octet-stream .flv
AddType video/x-flv .flv
AddHandler flv-stream .flv

Flex :: Retrieve Swf Metadata Within Actionscript Of Project?
Sep 14, 2009I know that it is possible to add swf metadata to the compile command as a command option, but I can't find any documentation on how to access these metadata within the actionscript during runtime. We're trying to add a version number to the swf during compile time and then somewhere in our app we would retrieve it during runtime, here is the command example to add the description metadata.
mxmlc -description "version 1.2.3"
I know the swf metadata is used by search engines and other utilities to gather information about the SWF file, but surely you should be able to retrieve them in the actionscript during runtime?
