View 2 RepliesDoes anyone know if adobe flash player cache data is available to other users on a system? For example: A user logs onto Windows XP, then uses my adobe flex application... and in the process of doing so downloads the signed flex lib... He then decides to mow the lawn and log off. At about 3pm the same day, his Mum can't hear the TV over the sound of the mower, so she decides to log in using a different XP user account. She proceeds to use the very same flex application. Does she also need to download the flex lib again, or would the data already be cached in the flash player?

View 2 RepliesI know there is a way to determine how many users can connect or "join"( in a manner of speach) per second, and how to set a maximum number of users in the queue to join, this does not mean though, that the server will reject all or any petitions after a certain number of players are connected or viewing a stream, which is what we need to do. anyone know if its possible to do this and how?
in other words,we need to set a limit on how many users can be watching a stream at any given time, be it by stream or by server, it matters little, we just need to get it set..

I am trying to find the best way to improve the user experience when interacting with a context menu in a Flex application. I already know that the context menu in Flex is quite limited in terms of how it is constructed and what it can show.
What I was hoping to do was to implement something similar to what Microsoft Word does in 2010 or later, where when right clicking a little floating palette is displayed above the common popup menu. I was hoping that there was a way to 1) listen for an event that is triggered when a context menu is displayed, and 2) determine the location of the context menu so that I could display a floating palette above the context menu as in Word. So far, I have not found out how to accomplish either of these things.
I suspect that there might be some focus and stage management issues with this approach generally, but I was hoping to at least get to the point where those issues were discovered.
I'm trying to accurately determine how many seconds of a video (NetStream) have been loaded so I can scrub/seek correctly. First I tried doing duration*(ns.bytesLoaded/ns.bytesTotal) but this is inaccurate by maybe 15%, ie if that calculation says 20 seconds is loaded and I scrub to 20 seconds ns.time will tell me it can't go past 17 seconds.
I think this is because the size of the file loaded doesn't map perfectly to the number of seconds loaded (obviously), ie as the video loads, some of the bytes loaded aren't the actual video but are overhead of the container/file the video is in. So to load 1% of video you have to actually load 1.15% of the file's size.
Does flash.display.Loader determine the file by filename or header?
The reason why I ask is that I'm getting an IOError: "Unknown File Type" when loading an swf which has a strange filename (in the form of "filename.randomnumbersandletters.swf").
When I set up 3 input text fields, I allow the user to change the font and size of those fields. If the user selects each one with the mouse and modifys them then no problems are seen. But if the user first changes the size and font of text field 2, then tabs to that text field and starts to change the text. The font and size properties revert back to the default.

I could re-apply the formating everytime the text field changes, but that seems like a bandaid to the problem.
I have some shared code between an Adobe AIR App and an Adobe Flex App.
On one line of this code, the program must behave differently depending on if it is running within the Air runtime, or the Flex runtime.
How can I programmatically detect the difference?

View 2 RepliesImagine you have a large number of video files stored on a server, and a Flex app which lets users play those videos they have access to. How can you best set this up? Wouldn't the Flex app just be sent the name of the video to play... in which case couldn't someone else write another flex app if they knew the file names? Can Flex play videos hosted on other sites? Is there some clever piece on the server I'm missing, which sits between the Flex video player and the files?

View 1 RepliesI'm developing a very simple flex application on Windows 7 64 Bits.It retrieves the user url and then show it:
public var bm:IBrowserManager;
protected function button1_clickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void{
bm= BrowserManager.getInstance();
bm.init();
Alert.show("Your URL is : " + bm.url);
}
On my Windows 64 Bits machine (Chrome, FF), it works fine and returns the URL.But, when I run my project on a Mac OS X machine (Safari, Chrome, FF) : it shows:
Alert.show(Your URL is : Null);
I think that it cannot retrieve the browser instance or cannot init the browser manager.
Now I am using Adobe Cirrus in my Flex app, but I think that Flex is too complicated for such simple application.

View 1 RepliesWe have a Flex application which doesn't currently use the Flex framework as an RSL. We're considering switching, but we're not sure what proportion of users will already have the framework cached.There's an added complication in that we're using the data visualisation components too, and we may have a choice as to which version of the framework we use.
View 2 RepliesWe have a Flex app that is currently loading an XML file that contains Multiple Choice Question data. I don't want a user to be able to access this file via http, but if I use HTTPService to load the file (what we're doing currently) it seems as though I have to place the XML file within the public_html folder on our server.
Is there a better way to load the XML file so that users wouldn't be able to see it in their activity viewer/access it via http://
