Actionscript 3 :: Directly Upload Video Captured From Webcam?
Aug 3, 2011
I'm working on a site, which needs to have a feature of users capturing their opinions about a specific topic with their webcam, and uploading them to the server. After a short research, and viewing similar questions like this one I ran out of possibilities:
I cannot use Flash Media Server (out of budget) I cannot use Red5, as the server where the app will be hosted is not able to build or install it. (our server guy told me that Red5 was last updated in 2007, and he got some errors which I include below (in case that someone would have an idea how to fix it) )
red5 install errors:
xxyyzz@zzyyxx ~/red5 $ sh red5.sh
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/red5/server/Standalone
[Code]...

I'd like to use Flash to capure video from the user's webcam and then save it on the same server that hosts the Flash file. The web server will be running ASP.Net technology. Lot of searches yielded the same lines of code to start a webcam capture using Flash. I can't find anything that sends that captured video back to a server.
I can find lots of blog and forum posts that imply 3rd party software or Flash Communication Server is required to collect it on the server, but I don't understand why. It seems like Flash ought to be able to capture some video and send it as an HTTP post to the same server that hosts the Flash file. That's pretty basic Flash/webcam functionality, right? It seems like we don't need to introduce 3rd party dependencies just yet.

I would like to know if it's possible for flash to stream it's webcam directly to another computer without a flash media server in the middle, I want to build a highly scalable video system which basically logs people into the site, records their ip address and then when someone wants to chat to that person, connect the output from the webcam to the input of the flash video player and vice versa. The idea being that they basically plug together, rather than a huge, expensive, bandwidth hungry server in the middle. Is it possible? I heard that flash can talk binary directly to sockets now, could this be a solution?

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.

I'm trying to morph image captured through a webcam. The webcam snapshot part is already working but I still have no clue on how to do the morphing part. Can anyone point me to a tutorial (or kindly post code sample) on how to achieve image morphing using flash actionscript 3?

I have been having a bit of trouble with AS3 and webcams. I have a script that connects to a webcam and then sends its output to a php script that saves the captured image. This works all except for one problem. It seems that the maximum resolution allowed for the actual Camera object is 320x240. I went to the extreme of hooking a Canon 60D up as a webcam because I have a normal webcam that is supposed to have max resolution of 1280x720 and all I can get is a 320x240 image from it. What I have found so far is the max I can get out of the Canon is also 320x240. Maybe I have been looking at this to long but I am stumped. Below is a sample of the action script where videoCapture should be 1024x768. What happens instead is a 1024x768 image is created with a black background and in the top left is a 320x240 image from videoCapture. I could obviously resize this but that would defeat the purpose being poor quality. Is there something I am missing here or maybe some limitation of Flash even?

Im looking to make the brightness of footage being captured by a webcam as a trigger to start or stop an event or animation. basically when the brightness being captured by the webcam goes below a certain level a layer will be effected and when the brightness goes back above this level it will revert back to its original state.

I'm running into a lot of setup issues and the documentation is lacking. I'm trying to setup an image upload component where a user can either capture a new photo or choose an existing from their library.
For capturing, there seems to be a huge hang (like 10 seconds where the app just sits non-responsive) when the image is being saved as a JPEG, and I'm using the Alchemy swc.
private var cam:CameraUI;
protected function takePhotoHandler(event:MouseEvent):void
{
if(CameraUI.isSupported) {

I've been experimenting with Windows Azure Blob storage using the samples using Silverlight.
I was wondering if it's possible to write a file upload component in Flash instead of Silverlight, since the former is installed almost everywere. I've never programmed in Action Script but I have a solid background in C# so that must not be hard.

I have an interesting project wherein I need to allow users to capture video of themselves with a webcam at a kiosk, after which I email them a link to their video. The trick is the resulting video needs to be a 'slow motion' version of the captured video. So for example, if someone creates a 2 minute movie, the resulting movie will be 4 minutes.I'd like to build this in Flex / AS3 if possible. I don't have issues capturing the video and storing it / generating and emailing a link, but slowing down the video is the real mind bender. I'm unsure how to approach 'batch post-processing' a set of videos using Adobe tools

I wonder wether on a website like chatroulette for example, the streaming video is going directly from user to user or wether it is going through a server.
In other words I wonder wether it is possible to offer a webcam service on a website, so that the streaming video goes directly from user to user, without overloading the system.

This will create an flv video file on flash media server:
var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
nc.connect(null);
var ns:NetStream = new NetStream(nc);
ns.publish("yourCamera", "record");
ns.attachVideo(Camera.get());
How can I generate an image for the current video frame every 2 seconds?

I recently was sent the source to a set of Actionscript classes and libraries which allows flash devs to track faces in Flash by use of a computer's webcam. This is pre-written source that I am wanting to embed into a game I am designing so that when the person leans left or right, the character on screen will move left or right respectively.
Here's the problem, the face-tracking is working, but the video that is being pulled in from the webcam is reversed...it is not a true mirrored image. I'm assuming that there's a line of Actionscript in my code that needs to be modified so that the video is mirrored rather than be displayed reversed.I did some research and found a few solutions, but I haven't been able to successfully implement them...I don't know how. I've tried but I'm guessing I've inserted these lines of Actionscript into the wrong spot within my Main class. Here's the couple examples I've found:

I want to create a simple app the will run on a PC as a desktop application - not on the web. What I would like to do is have it show a webcam image on screen (yup, i can do this bit), then when the user clicks a button, the video and audio from the camera is recorded and saved to their local machine (eg. the desktop). I'd prefer it to be an flv or f4v file, but any video format would do for now. I've seen examples of video being recorded only (basically grabbing a jpeg/png of each frame and using these, but this has no audio!) I've also seen mention off flash media server, but as this app will be going on over 100 pc's with no network/server connection - I cant see how the cost would work!! (100 x licences -
