View 1 RepliesI need to implement a webcam for a web chat system. Im trying to avoid that the video data goes through the webserver... it should go directly from client to client (as if they were using with skype).
View 1 RepliesI have a webcam set up in flash. What I want is to be able to talk to someone else who has a webcam via my website. Can someone point my in the right direction? I'll need to do it in as2.
View 2 RepliesI am wondering where I should start with using Flash to create a video chat.
I have experience in HTML, PHP, C++, and SQL... not sure if that helps. But basically I am new to flash and wanna learn how to get a video chat going on my website.
I have started learning about flash about 3 years ago, I had a shot at making a small application for my boss' website and that went down well... but since this first feeling of flash, this technology has evolved rather quickly. I used to write my scripts in AS 2.0, now AS 3.0 has come with a bunch of new stuff like event listeners and such. I have tried to catch up for the past two weeks but I kind of lack some training on all the new stuff added to or changed in AS 3.0.
So to come to the problem, I have tried to make a pretty simple menu from scratch, I wanted it dynamic so I took advantage of reading data in an xml file. I have created buttons but figured that movie clips were actually more flexible so I went down this way and it kind of works except that when i click one of my buttons, the button_down state works once but not twice, it stays as the button_over state even if i click repeatedly. My script is quite ugly as I could not figure out how to loop the creation of my menu buttons from a single set of movie clips (one for the up state, one for the over state and one for the down/clicked state).
I want to create an online q-bank with questions pertaining to a specific medical board examination. This is similar to the way kaplan and other companies creates Q-banks for standardized exams. The reason: No banks exist for these board examinations
what tools would you use to create a Question bank that has the ability to sort questions by user settings, implement timers, keep track of overall performace, display explanations for each questions, and have the options for video explanations. Is ActionScript up to this task?

I am building an enterprise application which involves many to many video chat. Most of the chats at any given time will be idle but they still need to trasmit some frames to keep the video chat alive and let other person know that someone is available. Will I be able to achieve this without any media server such as FMS and wowza? I heard about data packet loss during RTMFP. Is that true? What would be my limitations?
View 1 RepliesAre there any tutorials available that will show me how to create a multiple class program from scratch? I have 2 classes working with a fla and when I add a 3rd class every object I create comes up as an error.1120: Access of undefined property.I'm very frustrated cause I can't figure what the problem is. I have just migrated to OOP so I'm relatively new at this.
View 2 RepliesThe problem is a weird problem, because I can connect to the application through an RTMP test site, Adobe Flash Server reconginzes the connection and allows it. But when I try to connect from the flash applet (It's called Videowhisper), the connection doesn't go through. I was wondering if anyone knew what the problem is? I host Joomla (open source networking site) on a WAMP server, and Adobe Flash Server on the same machine. Adobe Flash Server is acception connections, just not from Joomla, for some reason.

How would I go about adding chat to FMSS during live webcam broadcasts? I will be using FMSS to broadcast webcam.Obviously it is an outgoing stream only as I am told to do cam to cam I need FMIS and at present I do not need cam to cam and I can not afford FMIS.I want the viewers of the webcam broadcast to have a chat window where they can send comments to the person on the webcam and the person on the webcam can type back if they want to.I have glazed over some posts here and saw that it can be done in Flash, I want to know if I can do it with FMSS. It does not need to be elaborate.

View 1 RepliesI have a website which i have built and work on alot, and i would like to create a sort of interactive map (the site is a surf webcam site, and i would love this map to be of the uk, and when you click on certain areas, it zooms in in a sort of google earth type thing, then showing locations of my cameras which the users can click to go to the correct page.) Now I did make something like this ( without the spinny stuff) using jquery and hiding divs etc, but I think to get the best effect would be to make some sort of flash applet. Now I am a complete begineer with flash.

View 3 Repliesi want to create a chat app using flex 4.5 mobile project for android device. For the chat screen, i wanted it to look glossy and stylish. Hence i thought i would use the list component and disable the selection in it. I m able to add the chat messages into the list. But i doubt if large chat data might hinder the performance. Im using a collection and i ve binded it with the list. Whenever i receive a chat i update the collection and it gets displayed in the list. Can someone tell me if his could pose a performance problem as list component is not intended for this purpose.
View 1 RepliesIm trying to do a "Pano" 360 flash app from scratch. Using Away3D I should apply an stereographic image very well, everything is working well.But looking in some apps on web (like Panorama), they load only 6 images and somehow they "merge" this 6 images and, I suppose, apply this merge into the sphere 3D. Or it doesnt use a sphere and make kinda illusion of sphere?Could you help me find out how can I merge the images and "apply" those flat, separate images, in my Sphere primitive or, if this isnt the right way, how can I "emulate" those panorama?

View 4 RepliesI'm looking for resources on making an interactive charting component in Adobe Flash without use of Flex (or, minimal use). That is, starting "from scratch" with Flash and ActionScript 3.0. Is there recommended reading? Perhaps a good recent book on the subject, or a detailed blog article, or an open source project to look at? I'm interested in the development process, and specific design patterns (for example, extending Sprite as the logical base class for your component).

I need help building a site entirely on Flash from scratch. I am a beginner at the software, I know what most tools do, I know how to create basic tweens and stuff, but well, all in all, I'm a beginner. I know absolutely nothing on Action Script (be it 2 or 3), and I want very much to learn Flash now. To do so, I want to put online a portfolio site for me. I already know Photoshop, Illustrator and After Effects quite well, so I think now's the time to give it a shoot. On to business:
1. So, first, what size should it be? I wanted it to be something around 1024 x 768 maybe? Is it possible to set an adapative resolution for the site? (I don't know if that's the correct term, what I meant is that the site changes resolution according to the users who are accessing it.)
2. I heard that if you don't use ActionScript to animate things, the site gets mega heavy. Is that true? What should I use ActionScript for when building this website?
3. Is it possible to organize the loading priorities? As in, the order in which things load, so that the site gets a bit more dynamic allocating the user's connection?
4. Are there global standards for Flash-based websites?
For now, I guess this is it. I'm starting this project today, so I'm still not quite sure what other doubts may pop up.

Does anyone have any tips for how to approach building a two level accordion menu from scratch? ...or better yet a tutorial? I haven't been able to find anything online other than references to the accordion component which I do not want to use.
Right now I got as far as loading in all the 1st level menu items and their child items from an XML file, when you click one of the 1st level items a function is called which moves all of the 1st level items below the one you click on down far enough so that all of that item's sub items have space, they then attach to that item.
I'm using a for loop within a for loop, is there a better way?
