How can i save a webcam screenshot to a website?
I know you can save it to your hard drive using:
var browseFileReference = new FileReference();
browseFileReference.save(video);
But how would i go about it to save this image to a website, lets say flickr or facebook or something.
I am capturing a webcam still and saving in a BitmapData variable. I want to then pass the BitmapData to a php script where I can save it to a folder.
View 2 RepliesI'm pretty new to flash.how to add a webcam, but is there a way to save a video from the webcam feed onto the pc running the flash app?
View 3 RepliesI have a swf that lets you take a picture with your webcam , I have changed the scaleX to -1 so that the picture on screen appears like a mirror. This works fine, when I take a screenshot I am getting a bitmapdata from the video stream, which I am also setting scaleX to -1 to preserve the image the same as from the video. But now I am trying to save that picture as a jpg file, I can't seem to save the pictures as it appears, I can only save it as the original data which is essentially the wrong way around (doesn't preserve the changes made to scaleX = -1)
Code:
bitmapData = new BitmapData(this.video.width,this.video.height);
bitmapData.draw(this.video);
// at this point the bitmapData is the webcam view, but not with the scaleX I applied before
[...]
var jpgStream:ByteArray = jpgEncoder.encode(bitmapData);
// so now this jpg data is of the picture which isn't horizontally flipped
How can I get a bitmapData from the video and preserve the scaling I applied to the video?
I have made a flash webcam application to allow the user to take a photo of themselves using a webcam. I have successfully saved the photo in my localhost. However, I would like to set the names of those photos. Currently, the photos names are generated by
$uniqueStamp = date('U');
I also have a textfield in my flash app that allows inputs from user for the photo name. For example if the user write 'MYPHOTONAME' in the textfield, the photo which will be saved in my localhost will be named 'MYPHOTONAME' too. How do I do it in Flash and in PHP? Currently I'm having some problems because I cannot send the textfield string to PHP.
Here is my flash code to send the snapshot to PHP and let the PHP save it in my localhost:
imgBA = jpgEncoder.encode(imgBD1);
sendReq.data = imgBA;
sendLoader.load(sendReq);
[Code]....
As you can see, I tried to pass in $photo = $_POST['photo']; from flash to PHP however I do not know the exact code, can anyone help me?
I'm new to AS3 and attempting to learn it by doing a small task, I am trying to get a live local video feed from USB webcam and want to be able to capture and save screenshots from it.I have the live feed working fine, but I am struggling to capture and save a screenshot.Someone from adobe forums suggested I should use BitmapData and JPGEncoder, which I have alongside as3corelib's.[code]I think I am doing something wrong when I am capturing the binary data, or when I am encoding it to JPG.Some assistance from somebody familiar with these methods will be a huge help as I am stuck now, and I am not getting any replies from adobe forums.Both the resolution of the videoInstance object and camera feed are 640x480, and the video is displayed fine.
View 7 RepliesIm sitting here with a project that i feel i have come a long way with (found some very usefull rescources). But i am stuck now and need some guideance in short terms what i am doing is a project where users can take a snapshot of them selves by using their webcams, and then save this picture.
This is all going ok, but when i save the picture its not the same size as the webcam picture. From what i can tell there is something going wrong with the bitmap creation process, and i cant seem to figure out how to add a field that i can toss the picture into like i have done with the video. (its using addchild(bitmap) now and that just adds a small picture at a given x & y, but i cant control size of it. And the saved pictures im getting are the size of the video area, but only 1/8th is filled with the picture, rest is just white..

I'm trying to record video from the users webcam and play it back at a later date.
I call
[Code]...
However, when I look at the FMS Admin Console at the streams in app/_definst_, their types are either "NetStream" or "Live". If they were being saved wouldn't they say "Stored"? After I close the application doing the recording, the "NetStream" type stream disappears, and after a while all the "Live" typed streams are gone too. Nothing is saved.
I have no idea what is happening. I don't know if it's a problem with my AS3 code not closing the recording properly or if I'm doing something else wrong, or maybe somethgin isn't right in the FMS?
i need a "take picture" option in my website which is developed in MVC3 and C# where i can capture image from web cam on clients pc and want to store that image on my server in some specific folder.

View 1 RepliesI'm not sure if this is the right place to post but here goes. I'm looking to stream a live webcam on my website and have no idea where to start. I've been searching for a while and various things refer to Flash Media Server but this is costly and, as I will be streaming from University, it will probably be blocked on the network or take up too much bandwidth.
Does anyone know of a way to stream a webcam, without FMS or Quicktime Broadcaster etc.? Any free websites that provide this service could be possible, so long as the stream isn't available to anyone outside my website.

I want to imitate the webcam video record feature that yFrog has on it's site.I know I need a flash media server or a red5 one, but I want to know what flash app do they use and what is available on the net to record videos using the users webcam.
View 1 RepliesI have installed flash media server, flash cs5, media live encoder to be able to view my webcam feed via my website. Now in addition to these, i started streaming to localhost, and installed a dns updater which updates a name server according to my current ip. Then i wrote this dns address in the feed's source from flash 5 as rtmp://thednsname.somedns.net/live/livestream
so far so good, i also forwarded the ports 1935 incoming and outgoing from modem to my computer as well (because 1935 is said to be the default port number for media server). firewall -> closed (just in case); and my internet provider doesn't block ports...started the media server (with admin privilage in 7), started the live encoder, connect to localhost, start live feed.
NetStream.Play.StreamNotFound : Adobe Flash tried to play a live or recorded stream that does not exist. Source can't be found.

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.

View 5 RepliesI am trying to make a flash application that can save (to the user's local hard drive) a screen shot of the canvas (or more accurately part of it).I've dabbled with Quasimondo's Bitmap Exporter which did some funky stuff to render an image, ship it to a php script on the server, and bounce it back to the client. But not only is that inefficient it also has two other major flaws:
1) it's written in actionscript 2 so I can't use any actionscript 3 abilities.
2) it breaks as soon as one of the images on the stage is defined as a variable brought in through $_GET rather than hard coded. (the image comes in fine but then the rendered finished product is a blank white image)
