Flash - Servering Mulitple Flv Files From Custom Webserver While Keeping The Sockets Open Stops After The 6th Connection
Jun 28, 2010
This is driving me nuts and because it's a combination of various technologies together I have a hard time tracking the problem. I wrote a tiny HTTP server that serves .flv files; these flv files are encoded on the spot. The flv files are encoded with adobe's screencodec (I started with libflv but that was too buggy so I ended up implementing my own flv encoder). For the problem below it doesn't matter which codec I use or if I serve plain flv files instead of on-the-spot generated ones (the problem also occurs if I just send 12 h264 encoded files).
I also have a swf that I coded in as3. The as3 opens 12 connections to my server and requests 12 different flv's and just displays them as 12 different videos on the page. I tested the setup with Firefox and chrome and am using the latest flash client (version 10). The HTTP server is pseudo streaming those files; e.g. it tells the client the file is of mime type video/x-flv, tells the filesize is 2GB and just starts streaming. For sake of completeness here's a header it generates:

I have a little problem with a simple URLLoader,it simply just loads the data from an url, and processes that data, nothing complicated. But, when ever i run it, it leaves the connection open. At the bottom of the browser it says:
Transfering Data From www....
The data is read sucessfully, so it should close the connection? but doesnt seem to want to do it. Is there anyway to close all open connections, or somehow remove such message?

I have installed FMS 3.5 on an Intranet server, and it installs its own version of Apache.This has now caused the localhost to open the FMS page. Disabling FMS 3.5 returns back to the Localhost page.It is not possible to run FMS 3.5 on an existing Webserver with Apache?

So, we want to move out from Air (Adobe stopping support and really bad implementation for the sqlite api, among other things). I want to make 3 things:
Connect with a flash (not web) application to a local mysql database.
Connect with a falsh (not web) application to a remote mysql database.
Connect with a flash (web) application with a remote mysql database.
[Code]...
if you can connect with socket wit mysql server, why use a web server (for example with php) to connect like a inter connectioN? why not connnect directly? I have done this a lot of times, using AMFPHP for example, but wouldn't be faster going directly? In the case of accessing local machine, it will be a more simple deploy application that only require the flash application + mysql server, not need to also instal a web server.

On my network I have a couple of pc's all running a bespoke server which will return the username of the person logged in when queried.I have the following piece of code.
private function LoopAndList():void
{
var loopSocket:Socket;
var fourthOctet:Number = 6;
[code]....
Now when this runs it doesn't work as I first thought. The iterations go though. the fourthOctet value is decremented. But somethinjg strange happens. You will notice in the above code that I have a hardcoded IP address in the loop. I have put this there to ensure that there is always a valid connection. So am aware it will always be connecting to 192.168.0.4.
But the connection only happens on the last connect call.
The ouput is:
192.168.0.6
Connecting to 192.168.0.6
192.168.0.5
Connecting to 192.168.0.5

I've written a basic FTP client to allow me to upload files through the browser without using the FileReference.upload() func (because it's damn slow). I've got all the socket logic worked out and it works for one upload. When the upload is completed, the FTP data socket is closed by the socket.close() func which triggers a response from the command socket and starts the whole process over again. This logic works perfectly on my Mac in both Safari and FF.
I can upload files and cancel uploads and it all works as I want. When I test it on Windows (IE 8, FF 3.5, Safari 4 on WinXP and Win7) it is busted. I've tracked down the problem to the fact that on Windows, the socket.close() function is not causing the server to close the connection. I don't know if this is because it's not sending a proper command or what... but that's where it's at.

I've have an asp.net app that uses flash for its navigation bar...the flash app uses two class files wrapped in packages that create the functionality of the whole navigation bar.When I run the swf file alone, the flash app works fine...but when I try it in the webserver it fails. Whats more, the flash app in the web server will work fine if I type the full URL to the swf file....it will not work however as an embeded object...and what I mean by that is that the flash app will show up embedded into the .net app but the additional functionality created by the other two class files fails!!!

I'm currently working on a project where I need to access multiple devices with differing IP addresses and Ports. I've defined "buttons" that will go to specific devices depending on the user input (sorry, hard to explain but I'm sure you'll get it). Everything works like a charm but I'd really like to see if there is a better way to code the following (maybe with an array) but I can't get it to work.
I will have up to 20 different devices so I'd like to streamline the code instead of having a bunch of "if" statements. As you can see, it's all the same just incrementing the TKsocket name.

I have a flash app which will send/receive a constant stream of data. The flash app should open a connection to the Java server, keep it open, and attempt to reconnect on socket failure. Are there any good APIs that offer this functionality? Smartfox Server is one option, but if I had my way I'd embed an API in my app rather than contort my app to run under Smartfox. Ideally it would offer an API on the flash end, another on the Java end, and efficiently (java nio preferably) handle the network component in between. I would just define handlers on both the client & server.

I installed Flash CS4 Professional trial version for school use. It wouldn't install successfully. I deleted the font files the troubleshooting guide said to, tried again, but gave up. (I'm afraid to run regedit and mess up everything else I have loaded.) (I previously had the Fireworks CS4 trial version loaded, then uninstalled it.) My problem is this- I have it running, but it saves files and then they can't be opened, even if I use the save function often- it's worse when I create the file, test the movie and then save.If I try to open it again, it says "cannot open file." Once it opened a copy I had saved, and it appeared blank, even though it was 544 kb file size. I only need it for a few more days, one more assignment and I'm afraid my previous files are corrupt. I have Windows Vista Home Edition.

I have three movie clips which launch three different sections of my flash site when clicked. These clips are tiny images of three products.
When you click them I want another group of 3 clips which contain animations of the products zooming in to play an appropriate frame when they are clicked to zoom in.
Then, once the animation is done... the appropriate section loads.
Here is the problem. I can do the button actions fine. BUT -- When the next product has to zoom up I cannot get the one that is already zoomed up to zoom down and then play the next products zoom up animation.
Anyone know of a way to track and update the states of these? Or determining which of the 3 products was clicked and let them zoom in and out dynamically?

I am displaying a photo from an external link when called upon from my swf. When the user clicks a button, up pops a corresponding photo in a new browser window. After the photo window has opened, if the user clicks another button the photo browser will update but its no longer in front. I know I need to use the focus() command but cannot figure how to incorporate it into my AS3 code.[code]....

I make all the Flash banners for my company including onsite events and IMAX films. There are pre made banners that I (we) are allowed to download and use from trusted sites (Paramount/Universal/IMAX/ etc). These are sent out so we can plug in our branding to promote the films locally. In the past year, all the Flash files that I have downloaded or had mailed to me on a disc will not open. The error that I get says:Failed to open document./Users/myname/Desktop/Flash Banners/FLASH/genericflashfile.fla.I first though that maybe the studios were using CS4 or now CS5, but the icon that comes with the .fla files are definetly CS3. I even purchased the SWF Decompiler as a work around, but once I decompressed the swf file, and then re-exported as a fla file, I received the same failed to open error.Files I create on my own work fine.I was wondering if I missed an update for CS3, but I double checked and am up to date.
