I have an Adobe Air Flash, Action script 3.0 application. I need to save the webcam (or rather a series of bitmap as frames) to a video file. The video file needs to be compressed and needs to save as the frames go.
View 1 RepliesIs it possible to record video through Flash's "Webcam" facility and receive encoded video on server side without any further processing (i.e. just saving the stream to a file)? Or is server side software always needed to encode the input? If server side software is necessary, are there free / Open Source solutions available?
View 1 RepliesI'm having a bit of trouble with flash cs3 video encoder. I'd like to encode some mpeg files to flv but I keep getting errors when trying to encode. The mpeg files are raw imported from my dvd video cam. I'm guessing they are mpeg-2 720 by 480 res. Quicktime files encode fine but I haven't tried any other video types. I thought it was a codec problem as all I use is vlc for video. So I tried k-lite codec pack nut no success, same errors. Just wondering if anyone had any advice. I suppose I could encode my mpeg files to mov first? But what encoder would I use to keep high quality?

I am trying to encode and stream live video. I have downloaded both the Flash Media Encoder and Flash Media Server. The problem i have now is, i can't able to connect to Flash Media Server. The FMS url is as default: rtmp://localhost/live. Do i have to purchase a FMS url? How do i make sure that my FMS is running/ activated?

View 1 RepliesI'm having trouble getting the Adobe Media Encoder CS4 to work properly. I have tried multiple files of different lengths but end up with the same output. Nice video encoding, but the audio starts and then cuts out after a couple of seconds. The longer the video, the shorter the audio works. The logs don't report any
issues.
I have this video that a client want's me to put on his website. Now the video is about 10 minutes long and its made up of about 4 different sections. He wants me to make it so people can click on links to jump around in the video.For instance there is a section called "Home Control" and one called "Lighting" that when clicked would jump to that section of the video.From a bandwith perspective what makes sense. Should I just have one FLV that is the whole video and create markers so that it will just jump to whatever section people want to go to or should I break the video up into 4 different FLV's?

View 1 RepliesMore specifically: I have a sequence of 32 bit unsigned RGBA integers for pixels- e.g. 640 integers per row starting at the left pixel, 480 rows per frame starting at the top row, repeat for n frames. Is there an easy way to feed this to ffmpeg (or some other encoder) without first encoding it to a common image format?I'm assuming ffmpeg is the best tool for me to use in this case, but I'm open to suggestions (the output video format doesn't matter too much).
I know the documentation would enlighten me if I just knew the right keywords... In case I'm asking the wrong question, here's what I'm trying to do at the highest level: I have some Actionscript code that draws and animates on the display tree, and I've wrapped it in an AIR application that draws BitmapData frame-by-frame. AIR has proved to be woefully inefficient at directly encoding this output- the best I've managed is a few frames per second, and I need to render at least 15 fps, preferably more like 100 fps, which I get out of ffmpeg when I feed it PNG images (AIR can take 1+ seconds to encode one 640x480 png... appalling). Instead of encoding inside AIR I can send the raw byte data out to an encoder or to disk as fast as it's rendered.
If you're wondering why I'm using Actionscript to render an animation or why it has to be encoded quickly, don't. Suffice it to say, the frames are computed at execution time (not stored as an animation in a .swf file, for example), I have a very large amount of video to create and limited time to do so, and using something other than Actionscript to produce the frames is not an option.

View 1 RepliesIs there any library in Action Script that be able to convert any video format to .FLV?
I've been looking for it with no success. I thought that as3 had functions for that purposes but not found.
I want to give the possibility that in my site, users can upload any video, so I need to convert it to a standard and compress it to a fixed resolution.
I am having an interlacing issue when I load my .flv files up to my site.The strange thing is that when I watch them after encoding in Flash Video Encoder (with adobe AIR) the interlacing does not appear. I can't understand why the interlacing issue would appear once the videos are loaded up to the site and yet they look perfectly crisp and clear when I watch the completed .flv's in AIR. I didn't de-interlace the videos the first time I created the .flv's but that shouldn't matter since they play fine in AIR right? Of course I can go back through and de-interlace them, but I want to make sure that this is the problem before I take the time to re-encode them all.

View 1 RepliesI'm new to Flex, Flash, and ActionScript. I'm attempting to create a video player that starts another video when the previous video ends. I thought there might be an event that is thrown when the video finishes playing, but I have not been able to find it.
VideoEvent.COMPLETE is when the video is completely downloaded, not when it is completely done playing. Does such an event exist? how I could subclass SWFLoader, Image, or Video to support such an event?

Here's the main list of features:

I'm using AS3 to base64 encode a JPG and pass it to Javascript. I'm attempting to use AJAX to pass that base64 encoded string to PHP and have PHP decode it. (I know I could send it back to Flash and Flash could decode it and send it to PHP, but I'm trying to eliminate the need for Flash on the decoding end).It appears that AS3's encodeToBase64String() function and and PHP's base64_decode() function do not use the same algorithm, as PHP evaluates it as a base64 encoded object, but does not seem to output it properly
View 4 RepliesI want to encode / decode a string in AS3:
var string:String = "This is an text";
encode(string) will give for example: "yuioUasUenUwdfr"
decode(encoded(string)) will give: "This is an text";
It does not have to be secure or anything.
