Actionscript 3 :: Create Video Movie From Dynamic Content?
Jan 9, 2012
I have an application (actionscript) that displayes a slideshow from dynamic content written in xml. The slideshow runs in flashplayer. Now i have been asked to display the content as a video file format.
I need to create a menu that has dynamic content. It'll be in a button until you click it, when extended, i want it to stay open until you either click outside the menu, or click something in the menu.

I have to create dynamic content based on content uploaded to site and I need to know best tools for this.In a nutshell. User uploads images. Images embeded into existing video and animated. New video produced for download So far I have looked at Flash Media Server, Flex etc but not sure what the best tool is for the server side production of content. I know I can produce the custom MXML and AS files based on content uploaded and using the Flex SDK I can render these into a SWF. What I don't know is if There are limiatations to this in the context of what I want to achieve For instance can a product like Flash Media Server do something similar.Transcoding is also required hence the interest in FMS.
Im working on a project and I dont know how to even think through the problem, as I've only worked through Flash through AS3, and the following needs to be done completely in AS too.
I have two pieces of content - some flash video, and an mp3, both loaded dynamically with loaders etc. All this I think I have fairly well in hand. What I'd like to do make the 'hick-up' as these tracks loop, disappear by cross fading the video and mp3 across it self in the loop - if that makes any sense at all. I suspect that I'll have to delve into the timeline, but perhaps strangely, never done so.
The images are uploaded with an html form onto the server and their path names are loaded into a .txt file for my flash AS to use.The problem I am having seems to be either server lag or browser issues (catching perhaps?).I manage my content via the CMS and once returning to the flash movie it is either old content, half working or just doesn't work, period.What is interesting is that once I locate the text file and view/refresh it manually, it works 100% fine. Now, it's obviously not a very useful set up if I have to manually refresh my txt files so is there a way, (php?, Java? etc?) to refresh these files?
I have created an application that lets the user dynamically edit the content of an online greeting. I want the application to be able to duplicate the edited greeting 4 times, so the printed page will contain 4 exact duplicates.
I tried using duplicateMovieClip, but it would not duplicate the dynamic content edited on runtime.
I was able to use attachBitmap and "capture" the screen content, only to find out the resolution of the duplicates was far from being acceptable (I guess because screen resolution is only 72 dpi, and I need it to print nicely).
I have a movie that I am loading text into. The textbox is set so the text flows downward. In an ifStatement further down, I am trying to see how tall that movie is(depending on how much text goes into it) to see if I should attach a scrollbar for the movie. If I trace the hight, it tell me that the movie is 200 high, which is the size that I created the textfield in that movie. But when the text is in it, it is actually much taller. How can I get an accurate reading of how tall it is, after the text is loaded into it?

I am trying to create a dynamic xml driven video playlist, that will display the thumbnail, title and time duration of the video (quite similar to the one on youtube). But I don't know where to begin and I have been googling for some helpful tutorials but cant find anything resourceful.if I shall use the Flash component for scrolling purpose or I shall learn to develop my own scroller with scrollbar.
how it is possible to edit dynamic content and modify the content and save it, all within flash.I have tried some experiments in the past and have got the text to change etc which is easy but i need a way to save the content so the next time anybody sees the flash it will have the latest content until i change it again.
I am trying to migrate as2 to as3 code.The normal solution to my problem involves using the first parameter of the createEmptyMovieClip() as the name of your movie clip. In several instances I have a dynamic value for this first parameter- so my question is How should I go about doing this?
//my code function someFunction (){ loader_mc = this.createEmptyMovieClip("text"+value, value);[code]......
I have been making a memory game, where words are shown to the user. Once they have memorised the words they go to the next screen where the words that they have memorised are shown. They then have to drag each word into a "correct" place and a "wrong" place. I now want to edit it so that I can use two arrays one for correct words and one for wrong words. I want to generate random words from each of these arrays. I have sort of worked out how this is possible to do but using dynamic text, but am I correct in thinking that the whole dragging the words thing is not possible with dynamic text. (I may be wrong though, I am quite new to flash).
I'm trying to create a flash video that will incorporate powerpoint-like slides along with video footage. So for instance I will have slide 1 (graphic) - slide 2 (video clip) - slide 3 (text). I have used CS4 before for one of my classes but that was a little while ago, and I feel like I'm starting over again. When I import the first graphic (.png), is there an option to have it resize to fit the stage?
i am trying to create a video player in AS 2.0, but I have a problem.My code loads a video, and plays the video, but.... I don't see my video xD.This is my code :
ActionScript Code: var connection:NetConnection = new NetConnection(); connection.connect(); var flux_video:NetStream = new NetStream(connection);
I am trying to make a nice pretty video.I have a AVI video from a GOPro video camera, and I hae some info I want to overlay on top of the video. Like Time, GPS, Speed, G-Force etc.I got my raw data, and ActionScript coded it up into a Flash movie, but then worked out I have two issues.Flash export to AVI is pretty crap, and basically does a screen capture.The export to AVI cant be transparent or anything but spare/rectangle.Should I use something other than Flash to create my speedometer, that is more friendly for overlaying on a AVI?This is the sort of thing I am trying to create.
I have a CSV of all my raw data, and am trying to find a way to overlay it and look as professional as that link above. I can make the dials in actionscript, but then exporting to AVI with a 'screen capture' type program, they look pretty crap. But on the other hand, inporting my HD video info Flash, and it becomes pretty crap quality, and still have the export issue at the end.
I hava an application that captures video from webcam and renders some additional elements on its display (augmented reality).Now I need to record this video and stream it to FMS.
I have an mp3 audio file with some narration and I also have a bunch of images that should change each other on the screen depending on a cue phrases in audio. My question is what will be the best approach to the task. Is it possible to lay out sound and images in timeline the way it was possible in Director? If so, is there any way to automatically extend audio to the number of frames needed to cover its duration? Or do I need to convert an mp3 audio in some video format (flv) in Soundbooth, add cue points, then import video to Flash (what should be the video settings so the Flash accepts it) and use ActionScript to trigger the "slide show"
if I set up the facility for people to embed video content on their site via their CMS (using TinyMCE editor), is there any reliable cross platform video format that should be used? From what I can find online, the only reliable way to embed and stream video is using FLV. Other formats seem to have caveats, e.g codecs required or quicktime updates required. Ideally I'd like to avoid this type of situation. If it is the case that FLV is the preferred option, then that involves asking people to encode their video content to FLV before uploading, so there is an extra step required here (unless I can set up the encoding in the back end, but this might take a while to process depending on the size of the video).
I am trying to create a video that loads the videos stred in a directory, depenant on the users id etc. To do this, I am using php. However, I cannot then get the php to convert to xml within the actionscript:
I'm having some problems when using full screen on Flash.I have my stage content and also a FLV running I want the whole stage to go fullscreen when I hit the fullscreen button not only the flv.I've tried using the player fullscreen button and also created a button of my own but both of them turn only the movie in fullscreen!
here is the code I used for my button
Code: // full screen fullscreen_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fullScreen); function fullScreen(event:MouseEvent):void { if (fullscreen_mc.currentFrame == 1){
I was wondering if anyone knows how to create the actionscript to create the transitioning between content on this site: [URL] I am interested in knowing how to script the unloading of the SWF(I think they are SWF's) or MCs so that one unloads and then another loads.
