The problem is I've a slow internet connection, and the video doesn't buffer like in YouTube. Therefore I was wondering weather I can extract the url of the .flv file which is being streamed in JW Player and directly download it. Doing some preliminary research, I've found the following info:

using actionscript 3, how can I extract the bitmap from a .ico file? ( preferably in .png format )
View 1 RepliesI've been looking for a solution for hours now. I have a movieclip which contains an image. Created by doing: put image on stage, convert to symbol, movieclip type, ok.I'd like to extract this bitmap because I want to use (somewhere else): graphics.begintBitmapFill(); but this method needs a BitmapData object and not a movieclip to create a repeating background (in my case).
So: how do I extract the Bitmap or the Bitmap data from a MovieClip?mind that attaching BitmapData as a base class to this symbol is NOT AN OPTION
I'm cutting my teeth in actionscript 3 on a game that has a character running through a world. So, I have set up my Hit Testing by using the bitmap data hit test method, since I figured my world is going to be destructible - it'd be nice to update the level and then redraw it and have the character interact with the new change. (That works beautifully) I am however; a bit confused as to how I have my hit Testing set up. I've been messing around with it, and it works for now - but I'm not sure why.. currently, I have a character set up by using a class I built and using a series of animations I created. So, this character has a walking and falling animation, etc. This is a movie clip.
Then there's a bitmap 'emptyBitmap' with bitmap data created - however; I never really added this as a child to the character. This is sized to the dimensions of my character. My level is created as a movielip, then it's drawn to a bitmap - when the level movieclip is changed, the bitmap redraws, and that's how this updates.

I am having trouble getting audio stream meta data from an Akamai FMS stream. Everything is undefined and I'm not sure why. I am hoping maybe someone will notice something that I am overlooking. The stream is connecting and playing without a problem I just can't seem to figure out why all the meta data is undefined.

The (what i figure to be) the ultimate question. If i publish an swf, how can i extract the code from it...Is there a tool? a website i go to?
View 3 RepliesThe ultimate goal is to create a dynamic slideshow with a variable length, depending on how many pics were submitted by the user. Since the associative array object returned by loadVars does not share the "length" property of indexed arrays, my guess is that the values need to be converted into a new indexed array before being able to use them in the slideshow.

What is the easiest way to programmatically extract structured data from a bunch of web pages? I am currently using an Adobe AIR program I have written to follow the links on one page and grab a section of data off of the subsequent pages. This actually works fine, and for programmers I think this(or other languages) provides a reasonable approach, to be written on a case by case basis. Maybe there is a specific language or library that allows a programmer to do this very quickly, and if so I would be interested in knowing what they are.
Also do any tools exist which would allow a non-programmer, like a customer support rep or someone in charge of data acquisition, to extract structured data from web pages without the need to do a bunch of copy and paste?

I would like to construct a RegExp/Actionscript3 statement/routine that will do the following:
1. Locate the link containing the favicon. Note that there can be many <link>s in the <head> so I am looking for the one that specifically includes the : <link rel="shortcut icon" ...favicon.ico">,
2. Most favicons are in the ".ico" format, but I have seen favicons that are .png and .gif formats. The next step is to save the .ico in a .png format
I know
insideInput = String(xmlNode.childNodes[0].attributes.insider)
virusTarget = insideInput.indexOf("kz", [17]);
endTarget = insideInput.indexOf(".", [virusTarget+2]);
trace("VTTT"+virusTarget)
trace("ET"+ endTarget)
//endTarget = local.indexOf(".", ["vitesting"]);
clipTarget = virusTarget+3;
zebra = insideInput.substring(clipTarget, endTarget);
trace(zebra)
I'm trying extract info from a string, increment through it and add the data to an array. I can't get the startIndex thing to work.
I have been trying to extract information from this file on YouTube using AS3. I have managed to access ytID (YouTube video ID) along with the ytName (YouTube video name) from a specific channel (called through the loader). I am stumped on how to get the thumbnail URL. I have managed to find out that through YouTube, its tag is media:thumbnail, however, Flash gives me an error for trying to use a semicolon.

I am using the following to extract the byte info from a sound object - however if I go back to the same sound object and run this again, The byteArray has no bytes available.
var data:ByteArray = new ByteArray;
sound.extract(data,sound.length*44.1);
data.position = 0;
return data;
Is this the correct behavior? Is there not a way to do this multiple times on the same sound object?
I'm trying to play a sound using a technique found here (play the sound by sampling raw sound data gathered from the original with extract()), with the difference that the mp3 sound is embedded in the swf, not loaded externally. This is my code:
var soundBytes:ByteArray = new ByteArray();
var mp3sound:Sound = Sound(new Sound1_design()); // this is the embedded sound
mp3sound.extract(soundBytes, int.MAX_VALUE);
[Code]....
This works, in a way, except that the resulting sound is distorted (it has a kind of a metallic ring).
I've created a prototype that will copy the pixel data from a movie clip then create a JPG image from it via PHP. It works perfectly. But when the MovieClip (called mcImage) contains a Video Object loaded with a streamed FLV, it won't copy the pixel data to the Bitmap object. The image generated is white. Here's a sample code:
var oBitmap:BitmapData = new BitmapData(nW, nH, true);
var oMatrix = new Matrix();
var oColorTrans:ColorTransform = new ColorTransform();

View 9 RepliesI have made a little drawing program for my daughter, and I have worked in the ability to save and load images that you have made. It's a simple line drawing thing, but she's 3, and it works.Whatand I'm still new with Flash and AS3) is that I can "addChild" to put the jpeg on the stage, but it's on (or over top of) the drawing area. That means that when I start to draw, I don't really add to the picture, instead, it's drawing behind it. I used the line drawing tutorial as the basis for this little app, the basic code is :
Code:
public function DrawMain(){
graphics.lineStyle(theLine,0x000000); //default to black lines

I am trying to do an image capture while in full screen, however the full image area is only partially captured, or the coordinates are off. In the source files you will see a few of my attempts commented off.
View 6 RepliesI'm trying to create sort of an eraser to remove sections of a bitmap on stage.
I have achieved this by creating a MovieClip in flash that is a circle and exporting it as a Class called Hole.
Now I use this MovieClip to erase a circle section of the image using the following.
var mat = new Matrix();
var ct = new ColorTransform();
var hole = new Hole();
mat.translate(x,y);
image.draw(hole, mat, ct, "erase");
Now what im trying to do is scale the size of the circle depending on a certain variable but no matter what I try the scale doesn't seem to change and. The size seems to stay the same as I drew it in Flash. I tried adding the following line
hole.width = hole.height = size;
I even created a class file called Hole and the size as a parameter
var hole = new Hole(200);
This didn't work either it still appeared to have the same size. I have even tried altering the scaleX and Y values with no success.
