sometimes, the spec sheet from the media company won't state actionscript version. so I guess it should be save to use as2 rather than as3. but is that actually actionscript version will affect the flash player.
View 2 RepliesI am currently making some interactive training apps for a company, It seems like flash is the way to go since I know AS3 and am comfortable with it. The problem comes where my boss wants to be able to sell these apps as learning aids to schools. Would using something like adobe air with flash be the way to go?

View 5 Replies- Is there a benefit to hosting FLV files on a Flash Media Server when they are under 2-3 minutes?I've been working on a couple different video projects as of late... some are simple web player with 30 second ads and others are working with longer videos like 2-3 minutes. I currently have an FLV hosting provider running Flash Media Server but with videos so small don't they download for the user as progressive anyway and there is no real benefit whether I am using my FLV host or my traditional web host?
i also use a separate video hosting company to handle my mobile videos mainly because I am a bit naive on how that works as well. I had a project with straight links to play video on mobile phones (with three different version served up based on OS). But it seems like most of those were progressive downloads as well.

View 1 RepliesI am trying to create an app used to display my company's portfolio. This includes a show-reel section.I developed it using HTML and jQuery, and converted it into an AIR app using the plugin for Dreamweaver.Admittedly this my first attempt at creating an app this way, but it all went smoothly until I wanted to play the video.
My Flash video player does not work, and according to some similar posts I read this is because of a referencing issue. I found several solutions for Flex, but that does not help my specific case.HTML 5 does not seem to work in AIR 2.0 either, so I am a bit stumped.
First post - I'm a designer just picking up AS2 for the 3rd year - so I know how to get in trouble..nonetheless, I created a flash presentation for the company I work for and they want to use the demo at conferences and what not... It's a single scene with nested/nested/nested MC spewn throughout... right now everything was hodgepodged in AS3 as I was desperately trying to get familiar with it. So I suck
I can't figure out how to tell the topmost timeline (or root?) timeline to play as soon as an embedded mc finishes playing or even one layer above the nested MC - everything is on a timeline, nothing is loaded, I have no real programming skill anymore...or ever
my final result is to have my same button driven presentation run automatically so the buttons no longer need to be clicked to continue.
Is anyone familiar with the function of the Flash Media Server where it can detect a user's connection speed and deliver the appropriate quality version of the video on the user bandwidth detection?
View 1 RepliesI use different versions of FMS (3.0 3.5 4.0 to 4.5) to muti-point publishing?Use existing old ones for most streams, and use 4.5 for iOS apps.
The answer is Im guessing probably yes, as I was able to multi-point publish to different big company's new FMS (4?) from one of our FMS 3.0 machine. But just to make sure before I make investment? Also Air 3 sdk based iOS app now can connect to FMS 4.5 and play h264 live video stream on ios devices over the appstore approved http-live-streaming protocol right? Just to be clear
is there anyway to make a flash chatroom with video webcam capabilities without using flash comm / media server?

View 2 RepliesI am trying to build a flash player for my company's Shoutcast server, and have seen a few articles about it on the 'net, including this SO question here. However, I can't seem to get the audio stream to actually play. It seems to be connecting alright, but calling stream.play() doesn't seem to do anything.

private var sStream:Sound = new Sound();
sStream.load(url);
sStream.play();

I've ran into a weird problem while trying to send a JSON command to my company's flash player. Basically, i am unable to pass a playlist to this player - nothing happens - using the following command:
player.sendEvent("LOAD_PLAYLIST", json_str);
but the weirdest part is that if I print the entire command using Firebug's console.log, copy it and paste it into the code (thus hardcoding the playlist), everything works like a charm.
For instance, the following code:
player.sendEvent("LOAD_PLAYLIST", "{"streams": [{"src": "rtmp://xxx.xxx.xx:80/redirectvodxxx/nas2.share/h264/512x384/progname1/prog_1_20110804.mp4"},{"src": "rtmp://xxx.xxx.xx:80/redirectvodxxx/nas2.share/h264/512x384/progname2/prog_2_20110804.mp4"},{"src": "rtmp://xxx.xxx.xx:80/redirectvodxxx/nas2.share/h264/512x384/progname3/prog_3_20110804.mp4"}]}");
was obtained using
console.log('[loadNewListofContents] playing the following content list: player.sendEvent("LOAD_PLAYLIST", ' + json_str.toString() + ');');
and if i hardcode it, it works!I've tried all the toString() tricks I can think of (ex: json_str.toString(), '"' + json_str.toString() + '"', etc...) but so far no such luck.
How do you or your company require designers to deliver their assets to coders? Do they deliver a PSD? A series of 24-bit PNGs?
If you are a coder, what would you include in a best-practice guideline to designers? If you are a designer, what questions would you like to see answered in such a document?

However, we were able to call the following successfully.
I have 3 banners on a website.Each of them rotate to different "ads" with different urls.When they are viewed at the direct url file location everything works perfect.They click to the correct place.However when they are viewed together on the main site they will not click through.
View 7 RepliesI was wondering of any methods to sync two flash banners? What I mean is that when the page loads neither banner starts until both are ready? I will have two flash banners like this: |Banner 1| (something else between them, html css) |Banner 2| Both banners will contain video, that needs to be played in sync. Any ideas? I would prefer AS2, because the site I will run these two banners on prefers AS2. I read something about LocalConnection in AS3, anything similiar in AS2? And does it work on all OS / browsers? Can it be done with Javascript?
