I know it can read the camera and maybe the monitor size but the above is still remain unknown to me.
I'd like to read or write browser cookies, using a flash client.
Lets say, If I have a website with users... And they can play all sorts of movies (the client). I'd like to have a way to recognize the user. Maybe there's a different alternative?

View 2 RepliesI'm trying to read a xml file from client. After search for it. I have got to upload the file to the server with this code.
var imagesFilter:FileFilter = new FileFilter("*.jpg,*.gif,*.png", "*.jpg;*.gif;*.png;*.jpeg");
fileRef.browse([imagesFilter]);
But what I want to do is to read the file from client and parse it without uploading it to the server.

View 2 RepliesWith flash, is it possible to compress an audio file or convert it to a compressed format such as mp3 after it has been selected using a file browser?
I'd like to compress audio files before they are uploaded to the server to save bandwidth. Although I doubt that such direct binary access and manipulation is possible, I'd like to be sure.
Just wondering what is the standard in the Industry; does the client get the ActionScript Classes and the .fla file?

View 2 Repliesis there a way to have flash read swf from a directory dynamicaly. so if you add a new one it reads it and you could have a next and previouse button to dynamicly browse throught them.
this way you could just upload new swf and it would automaticaly add it to the set so when you hit next at the end it would read the new one.
We are trying to create a sqlite db file using java on the server, and encrypt it.Then we send the encrypted db file to a client's pc, which has an Adobe Air desktop app running.The air app then needs to be able to open/read-from the encrypted db file (client is read-only).We are using java 1.6, flex/actionscript 4.5, and Air 3.1.We can create the sqlite db file on the server and send it to the client, and it can be read by the client without issues, when we do not encrypt it.But we are having trouble with the encryption part. We've read quite a lot of documentation about Actionscript's ability to open encrypted sqlite files using AES + CCM (URL...).And we're trying to use java's crypto package to encrypt the sqlite db file.The encryption is important because we don't want the client to be able to open the sqlite db file with any sqlite browser, only with our Air application.

View 14 RepliesI'm thinking about making a game that would have 3 "save slots", so you could play the game and then load the game later. If you were to save the game, basically flash would store a list of variable values into a text file.
Let's say I have game.swf in a folder named MyGame.Also in that folder I'll have save1.txt, save2.txt, and save3.txt. If I'm loading a game, I'd want Flash to open that txt file, read the values, and then set the variables equal to that in the text file. So if you open save1.txt and you see a=1, b=3, and c=2, I'd want flash to then take those values and set it's own same variable a = 1, b = 3, and c = 2.
On the other hand, if you're saving a game, let's say a=10, b=10, and c=10, I'd like it for flash to open save1.txt and replace the text there with a list of the current variables.Flash would need to do one more thing... if for some reason the file were deleted, Flash would need to create a new txt file. If the txt file is missing, you couldn't load, but if you're trying to save to save1.txt and that file doesn't exist, I'd need flash to create a new save1.txt and then put the variables into it.
I would like to read the source of the flash.net.FileReference class. Is this possible?Where can I find the source files, do the come with the Adobe Flash or Flash Builder?

View 1 RepliesIt is fully finished and before the site was finished we discussed charges for updates. They just requested the source files. We had never discussed this, and I do not want to give away my source files and all of my code. What is standard? Am I wrong to have them go through me for updates since this is what was discussed?
View 8 RepliesI'm been impressed by just how terrible the NetConnection docs are. The NetConnection API:
[URL]. It has a client object that "Indicates the object on which callback methods are invoked" but no where can I find a list of the functions that are actually called?
That seems pretty obscene. I can find people mentioning onBWCheck and other functions that were throwing me errors, and I've seen someone mention onMetaData.. but this is hardly a complete list. Just casual mentions across various websites. I don't understand why this fundamental class is so obscure.
I'm developing an application and because of certain design restrictions I have to do it in Flash. This application communicates with another one done in c++, but just because I need a couple strings, so I thought it would be easy to write them to a .txt file and parse it. But the only way I've found so far is adding a browse event handler and select the file manually. That's no good for me, I need the file to be read automatically given a path, something like:
var data:ByteArray = fileRef['C:whateverPath'];
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
loader.loadBytes(data);
what to set in FMS config files to help me with rebuffering on client side? The player (flash, rtmp) rebuffers a lot (approx. twice a minute) with no good reason - i've tried several players with various buffer settings, clients and server have sufficient bandwidth for the stream (live streaming) - so i guess this can be helped server side - can it and how?

View 1 RepliesI'm just beginning to learn actionscript (I'm using Flash CS4).There's this little project I'm working on as part of my learning activities.I have a folder with 12 jpgs and I want to randomly load 6 of them into 6 mc's that I already have in my stage. I say randomly because I would like to have different images everytime I play my little movie. I know that if the jpgs names where somewhat serialized (i.e. "pic1.jpg", "pic2.jpg", etc.) I could easily do it by creating a variable to contain the numeric part of the name and concatenate it with the rest of the name (or something like that).
The name of my jpgs are pure strings (like "basketball", "soccer", etc.).Can I (via actionscript) read those names and push them into an array even though the names are pure alphabetical strings?If this is possible, I think I can figure out the randomizing after pushing the names into the array.
I have the following to play my FLV files and can't seem to read in cue point. Here is what I have:

nc.connect(null);
var ns:NetStream = new NetStream(nc);

Is it possible to zip/compress assets files into binary or .bin format through Actionscript or AIR? The compressed file will be in binary and can only be read by Actionscript which then parses the file.
Right now I am only able to read/write zip files using nochump's amazing library. I tried using AIR to write the bytes to disk and save it as filename.bin but I am still able to read filename.bin using 7-zip.
The objective is to protect my asset files as much as possible. Are there any other ways?

I'm going to implement a file uploading application using flex 3.5 and php. In the flex code I need to read the content of the uploaded file without calling the FileReference.load() method (Since it is a big issue when uploading large files). I checked many online articles and didn't find a way to do this in flex.access the content of this file without using FileReference.load() method?
