Flash :: Converting A MovieClip To ByteArray?
May 25, 2011
I have to convert a MovieClip to ByteArray and send it to php using the POST method. The person handling php says that only ByteArray needs to be send and conversion to JPG and PNG can be done from PHP side. When I built the option for saving on the local machine the following steps were used.
Converting to Bitmapdata
Using JPGEncoder and PNGEncoder on the Bitmapdata
Then assiging to byte array variable.
So in this case different byte arrays were used for saving in case of JPG and PNG and it worked.
I found the code to convert movieclip to bytearray in Stackoverflow itself

I'm trying to read out some BitMapData into some kind of readable output.
Reason for this is I'd like to trace out the ByteArray and hopefully cut and paste its details into an .as file and then compare it against another BitMapData Object or byteArray that is generated within the app.
Basically I want to compare differences between the two and report back how many pixels or something are different.
It might seem like a strange or approach.
I can create a BitMapData Object, it traces back as [object BitMapData] - so I thought awesome just loop through the Object... But looping through the Object traces nothing at all back out.
So I tried to create a ByteArray and then convert that to a string, but all I get is wierd 'y' chars with two dots on the top of the char.
I've left some code below,
Code:
public function GetAndCompareBitmapData(target:DisplayObject) {
var bd:BitmapData=new BitmapData(target.width,target.height);
trace("bitmapData "+ bd); // trace [object BitMapData]

I am using [code]...
In the 4th line in the code above i am getting "Error: Error #2030: End of file was encountered." I checked the length of the pixels object which is 4 times the width*height of the rect object. Given that setPixels() functions reads unsigned int from bytearray and sets that value to pixels, I think it should work.
But I have no clue why this wont work. The pixels object is filled after RLE decoding of the data which i get from a server.
Is there any work around or any other method which I could try to use. The loader class wont work as the data that I get from the server is not in any of the recognized format.

I am working on a game, made with Flash (using AS3) The game has a fast ball and when this ball hits an object it has to make a sound... but the sound starts with delay (so the ball is far away when the sound is played).This sound is edited by me and it hasn't got any silences at the beginning.The method i'm currently using is the simplest one:
public var sonidoPuntos1:sonidopunto1 = new sonidopunto1()
and then...
sonidoPuntos1.play()
I am trying to introduce the file into a ByteArray and then playing it from there...

My code is below. I have an external Class AS file doing most of my code but I need some of the moviClips to highlight areas (other movieClips) when they're rolled over. I've kept instance names the same + an H for their highlights to lessen the amount of code and be able to use array's and for loops.
My code is below and brings up this error:
Actionscript Code:
TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert "areanaH" to flash.display.MovieClip. at EnterpriseZone_fla::Layer1_1/end()

I have this bit of code. The highlighted area (I think) is causing "TypeError: Error #1010: A term is undefined and has no properties. at firstStep_fla::MainTimeline/placeDef()" The error appears when I go through the "match" section.
import flash.display.MovieClip;import flash.events.MouseEvent;
var numRight:Number = 0;var originalX:Number;var originalY:Number;var box:Rectangle = new Rectangle(0,0,450,380);

I am trying to convert the [Loader Object] into the MovieClip but could't do it. Please see the comment in to code to see my problem. The reason i want to do this is because i have other movieclips on my code, I like to be able to use those code instead of converting the code to works with the loader object.[code]

I have a reference to a dynamic movieclip that I am trying to access from another movieclip, but I think the problem is flash sees it as a string rather than movieclip. Basically in a movieclip I have the following:

var changeMe = "_root.scrollerClip."+_global.currentlySelecte d; // (_global.currentlySelected is the name of a movieclip i know exists, but adding the

I had an old AS2 trick that I named "menuStatus" that I would use to for a file where I had several buttons. Each button would have it's over state, off state, and "current" state. When the button is in it's "current" state, it moves to a 3rd frame in the respective button (for this example - a basic color shift). I'll also eventually remove the listener when it is in this state. But first things first: I can grab a button's name using the "event.target.name" and assign it to a variable. But when I try to tell that variable to gotoAndStop(3), I get an error:[I]1061: Call to a possibly undefined method gotoAndStop through a reference with static type String.
ActionScript Code:
stop();
var current:String = new String();
var myBtns:Array = [one_btn, two_btn, three_btn, four_btn, five_btn];

I'm creating a quiz that has the user press a submit button.Everything was working perfectly until i tried to make the button look better by going in the clip and converting the rectangle to a movieclip.now the button looks great but says its calling a null reference.if i go in an break apart the mc on the first frame (up) then it works.why is it doing this? is putting a mc in a btn bad? is there a way around this.I really like the way by buttons look but dont know how to get the same effects without it being a movieclip.

I have a slider that the values are passed to a concatenated string.
Example:
trace ("object" + event.value + "_mc");
this gives me "object1_mc"
Now, what I would like to do is use that string to set the alpha to 1
Example:
object1_mc.alpha =1;
It will not work because it is a string and not a movieclip...

I'm trying to convert the frames of a MovieClip (mc) --which are vector graphics-- to Bitmaps in order to improve performance.
The Logic is simple: During the first time play of the mc on every frame I convert the vector display of the mc to BitmapData with their appropriate transformation applied and store these BitmapData instances in an Object with the frame number as the key. I use these BitmapData instances to create Bitmap instances and use them in place of the actual mc during the successive play.
Everything works fine except that there is a random but small position error for the created Bitmap instances so it looks like its vibrating in its place. I have no idea what is causing this.
I have attached the Flash Builder 4 AS project for anyone who wants to look at the code. The swf file can be found in the 'bin-debug' folder when extracted.

I am using Flash Professional CS5 and a sequence of small images that I want to convert to a MovieClip to use in actionscript 3. I have a blank actionscript 3 file. I go to Insert -> New Symbol, name it 'blue', set it as a Movieclip and tick 'Export For Actionscript'. Then I press OK. I get the message about creating a new class and click OK. Obviously this creates 'blue' in my library. I then go to File -> Import -> Import To Stage and select my first image of four, 'blue1.png'. It asks if I want to import the sequence of images. I have blue1.png, blue2.png, blue3.png, blu4.png, so I click Yes and the images appear on the timeline, stage and my library. Can I now use the class 'blue' in my main actionscript file? Currently, in my main actionscript file, called BubbleVillage, I have some very simple code:
Code:
package {
import flash.display.*;
public class BubbleVillage extends MovieClip {
public function BubbleVillage() {
private var firstblue:blue;
firstblue = new blue();
addchild(firstblue);
}}}
When I save and test the movie, I get a blank screen.

The BLOB field (pic) is turning out as 0 Bytes when trying to send ByteArray through as3 to PHP, so i assume the PHP script or the HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA isn't working.I think the Flash part is working, I have set a trace() to see if the bitmapdata is coming through and it seems it is, so I'm assuming its my php side.3

var bmd:BitmapData = new BitmapData(600, 290);

What is the simpliest way to find an occurance of some sequance of bytes (string) in a long byte array?
UPD: I tried to do
my_byte_array.toString().indexOf(needle_string);
the problem is that in flash/air string consist of utf8 characters, so indexOf will return value different from offset of "string" in a byte array (actually it's zip archive)

I'm using URLStream to download a big file and save locally on a mobile app. To do this, i need to store the downloaded bytes on a ByteArray:
private function handleStreamProgress(event : ProgressEvent) : void {
if ( urlStream.bytesAvailable == 0 ) return;
if ( urlStream.connected ) {
[Code]....
Are these bytes from the downloaded file stored in Memory? (Profiler doesn't show any excessive memory consumption, though...)
Should I clean the byteArray after each sequence of bytes is stored?
