Actionscript 3 :: Flex, Get USB Id Of Plugged USB Device?
May 18, 2011I'm developping an Adobe Flex application.
I need to detect gps devices when plugged. Currently, it is a bad heuristic-based detection that is used (it tries to find specific files/directories). It uses the StorageVolumeInfo to discover plugged devices.
'd like to know if there's a way to get the USB id with Flex.

Jul 3, 2009I have a web conference application that allows people to communicate via webcam. However, I would like it to be smart enough to detect if one is plugged in and if it is not, to disable the video feature. Just looks really bad when they try to use video but it gives them a black screen.
My problem is that using the following code, I get camera names that were previously plugged in but not CURRENTLY plugged in:

IDE :: Animating A Wire Being Plugged Into Socket?
Aug 31, 2009I'm trying to animate this scene where the plug at the end of a blue wire would snap-in to the white colored socket. Its a simple process, but the tricky part is that I have to make it interactive. In other words, the user has to mouse-click on the plug and drag it close to the white box where the plug automatically snaps in place.
I also need to make the blue-colored wire flexible/bendable to follow the mouse's movement. i'm thinking bones, but don't know how to mate it with the mouses' movement. And I'm rather clueless about ActionScript 3.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Display Images From The Images Server As Long As The User Is Plugged Into The Domain
Jan 22, 2009I have a flash file sitting inside of a web page in our company domain. There is another server (used to store images) that is part of the domain but is not running any web services (for security reasons). A folder on the images server is however shared in such a way that any site on the web server can display images from the images server as long as the user is plugged into the domain. For example, both I and my boss can pull up a web site on the web server and see all the information, but only he can see the images
because I have Vista Basic and no domain support. This is done via "<img src='\serverNamedirectory.'/>"
That's ok, but on this particular instance I don't want to display the image on the webpage, I want it in a SWF on the page. However the SWF can't seem to load the images even though the page it's sitting in could. I've tried tons of variations of URLRequests and Loaders, most resulting in security errors. Since most of the online discussions about these errors revolve around cross-domain access, I can't seem to find any tech support for our specific situation.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Xml Local Storage From Url?
Jun 27, 2011i am hoping that someone can put me right on this question (apologies if this the wrong forum too)...i have an .ipa file that uses xml for it's content. i can load the xml/images etc... fine from both a url and also locally on the handset.but what i wanting/trying to do is for the .ipa to check to see if there is an updated xml doc/images from the url - if there is then it downloads/saves the xml doc and any associated images to a local folder/location - if there isn't (or the handset can not access the internet) it simply loads up the xml and images locally.i have seen a few methods of doing this - but am not sure how it all ties together with flash?

Feb 27, 2010I've been working on a game the past few days where there is to be a LARGE amount of stored data. By a large amount, I'm talking something like 200+ entries of around 12 fields.The game is being designed with the intent of playing it online (per say), so I can't rely on storing specially made files on one's computer (Not that I think I could and do it in a way where players cannot modify it). I also do not want to rely on a stored XML file on the internet or on a database, because if the website that has this data goes down or if the person loses internet access, then the game becomes unplayable.So, I need to store this data in the game itself, but I am unfamiliar with the best way to go about doing this. I've normally worked with outside sources for data storage, as they were designed in closed environments (aka intranet) or the website that the SWF would be on would also be where the database used is stored. Neither apply to this game, as the game will likely be put up on Flash portals like Newgrounds.

View 3 RepliesFlash And Remote Data Storage
Apr 8, 2011A few years ago I was up-skilling form AS2 to AS3. In the process I could have sworn I came across a resource that was all about using SQL and Flash AS3 together. It looked like native AS3 SQL communication.I remember thinking "That's cool, will use that one day" and then putting the book down. Well it is now one day and I need to remotely read and update data from a Flash file. The thing is I can't for the life of me remember where I saw it.Searching online has been a bit discouraging. All I can find is a lot of people saying there is no native Flash AS to SQL communication. Was I dreaming, or are all the posts I'm finding old and referring to AS2?If this is the case, is there a way to save shared objects or XML files to a remote server? Or is my only option calling php files from Flash?

View 1 RepliesActionscript 3 :: Adobe AIR System-wide Storage
Jun 30, 2011I'm working on an AIR app that will have a free basic version and a more advanced paid version that's unlocked with a license key. Ideally once a license key is entered I'd like it to unlock the application for all users of the computer. However, I haven't been able to find a suitable system-wide location for storing the license key file. All of the preconfigured locations in the File class (e.g. File.applicationStorageDirectory) are either user-specific or read-only.
Is there a standard system-wide location in AIR where I can store things like this? If not the file system, maybe shared objects, or SQLite, or the encrypted local store? Failing that, are there standard locations on each system (Windows, Mac, Linux) that I could hardcode that are guaranteed to be writable by all users? The last option is made more difficult by the lack of access to any environment variables.
If all else fails I guess I could just require the application to be unlocked per-user, but that doesn't sound like a recipe for happy customers ("What do you mean I have to buy it twice for my wife to use it? We only have one computer!"). (Okay, yes, it it's per-user I'll probably let one key unlock the app 3 or 4 times to be nice about it, but it's still less convenient for the user to activate multiple times).
IDE :: Flash Pro 8 - Local File For Variable Storage?
Mar 28, 2009Presently I'm building an interactive CD-ROM based presentation for stand alone individual machines. I'm using AutoPlay Media Studio 7 to package a flash movie along with a licensed adobe reader and adobe flash player. One of the buttons on the autoplay package will install and create folders and files on a local machine.
I've uploaded a file for you flash gurus out there to look at, it may help to examplify what I'm trying to achieve. What I'd like to do, is to be able to use a file (perhaps XML?) that the flash movie can reference and make changes to. If this is possible then such file would be included in the AutoPlay package (see background info above) and installed on the local machine.Security is an extremely low key issue here and the username password is simply a means for flash to lookup and recognise an existing user (if there is one) and set the states of some variables.
Why? - The project is like an interactive training manual with questions and animated examples split into 8 modules. I would like to be able to provide users a means with the of not having to review previous modules by logging in at the login frame.
Code:
Assigned to 'signInUser' button
on (release) {
if (user_name == storedUserName) {
if (pass_word == storedPassword) {

Media Server :: DVR Storage When Using HTTP Dynamic Streaming
Nov 20, 2010When using DVR with RTMP streaming the stream could/would be saved as single big file on the server, but when using HTTP streaming the stream will consist of numerous chuncked files; in this case how will the stream get saved, will FMS 4 assemble the chunks? unlikely, will the chunks of stream get saved? in this case I wonder which tool could be used to access it and make VODs of it. What is the exact behaviour of FMS4 when dealing with storage of DVR HTTP streaming?

Javascript :: HTML5 Local Storage Fallback Solutions
Jan 14, 2011I'm looking for javascript libraries and code that can simulate localStorage on browsers that do not have native support.Basically, I'd like to code my site using localStorage to store data and know that it will still work on browsers that don't natively support it. This would mean a library would detect if window.localStorage exists and use it if it does. If it doesn't exist, then it would create some sort of fallback method of local storage, by creating its own implementation in the window.localStorage namespace.I understand that Flash and Silverlight can be used for local storage as well, but haven't found anything on using them as a fallback for standard HTML5 localStorage. Perhaps Google Gears has this capability too?Please share any related libraries, resources, or code snippets that you've found! I'd be especially interested in pure javascript or jquery-based solutions, but am guessing that is unlikely.

View 2 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Detect If User Doesn't Allow Local Storage?
Mar 18, 2009I have an actionscript app which needs to use SharedObjects. I see how if the user doesn't allow the Flash Player to access local storage, the security settings panel automatically pops up and asks for user input.
My problem is that my app runs with a 1x1 pixel stage, because it doesn't display anything. So the user will never see that panel and the program will seem to hang.
What I want to do is to somehow detect that the user doesn't allow the Player to access local storage so that I can open a new window large enough to display that panel.
The only way I've been able to detect this so far is to try to call SharedObject.flush() and check the return value, but that displays the settings panel.

Apr 2, 2012So I'm trying to copy a file selected by the user into the AIR application storage directory, but when I attempt to resolve the path in the storage directory, I get:
Error #3002: File or directory exists.
I get this even when there is no possible way that the file already exists (I am pretty sure there is no "qqqqq.txt" there).
My code looks like this:
var saveFile:File = File.desktopDirectory;
saveFile.browseForOpen("Open File");
saveFile.addEventListener(Event.SELECT, function(e:Event):void
[Code]....
The error is thrown on the line where I try to set the destination as the applicationStorageDirectory, but I have no idea why.
Edit: So I commented out everything below var destination:File = File.applicationStorageDirectory; and it STILL throws the error.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Avoid Showing Local Storage Dialoge Box For SharedObject?
Nov 17, 2010I'm doing a small webapp where I want to use a fairly small amount of Local Storage for SharedObjects.The challenge is to cater to all visitors, including those that might have turned down their local storage allowance to 0 bytes (inactivated).Now, what happens is that the first flush method call triggers the local storage dialog box.In the case that the user has inactivated local storage, I don't want to ask them to raise it - instead I want to avoid using SharedObjects for the remainder of the session.I haven't found a way to test for the capacity of the local storage. What I can find is the size property of the SharedObject class. This doesn't work however as it only reports a size greater than 0 if there has already been an object written to this application domain.

Jul 3, 2011When running a flash application that I run locally i.e., I get to it from a browser but with a file path
file:///C:/Projects/test/bin-debug/Main.html#
Now, most of the time the shared objects are stored in

But occasionally, it reverts and thinks this application is running on localhost
%APPDATA%MacromediaFlash Player#SharedObjectsXXXXlocalhost
Which means all previous saved settings are gone.
How flash decides if the application is infact localhost or localWithNet (local with Network access). Rebooting can sometimes make it revert, but I've also had it stay localhost for a few days then revert.
