var is:ImageSnapshot = myImagesnapshot;
var str:String = ImageSnapshot.encodeImageAsBase64(is);
As of now, I am sending my jpeg data to the server with the code above. The problem is that it almost doubles the size of the data. Is there a way to send the image data directly without using any encoding.
I want to take a snapshot of a movieclip and add the snapshot to the stage on every frame.

i'm creating a visual editor in flex and need to let users export thier projects into Image format. But i have one problem: size of the canvas is fixed and when user add element which is out of these sizes some scroll bars added. And user continue working on the project. but when he want to take snapshot of the canvas he just get the visible part ot the canvas with scrollbars. how to get image of the fullsize canvas?
The only solution i found is to check the positions and sizes of canvas child objects and rezise it to fit them. then take snap and resize back. But it hmmmm... too complicated i think. Is there some "easy methods"?

Using Flex, what is the recommended way of taking a webcam snapshot picture? Something along the lines of:
var camera:Camera = Camera.getCamera();
var image:Image = /* magic goes here */
In my application a canvas object has height = 90 px & width = 86400 px (indicating number of seconds in a day [60 * 60 * 24] ). The canvas is scrollable and the user can add or delete components in that.Now, I want to have snapshot of the whole canvas & shrink it to size 910x30 to draw taken snapshot in another canvas.Can anybody tell me how to take snapshot of such large Component?I have tried to take snapshot in BitmapData object but as it max width is 2880 can not give whole canvas snapshot.

View 1 RepliesI'm trying to scale text from 1 to 5, a sort of zoom in type of look. I'm using the code below:
<s:Scale target="myLabel" autoCenterTransform="true"
duration="2000"
scaleYFrom="1" scaleYTo="5" scaleXFrom="1" scaleXTo="5"
>
The text scales terribly. So my goal is to take a snapshot of the text label at a large font, add it to the display list, set the scale to a 5th and then animate the scale up to 1. After that I have to set the text again and do it all over again.
This is a Flex app and that's where my question comes in. I don't know how to take a snapshot, then what to add it to (group?) and then how to erase it and start over again?
var snapshot:ImageSnapshot = ImageSnapshot.captureImage(someSprite);
var file:FileReference = new FileReference();
file.save(snapshot.data,'abc.png');
n the above code I am able to capture an image.But I also want to apply a scalingMatrix(for zoomIn/Out) and a clipping rectangle to it. How to do it? I tried capturebitmapdata too, but with that I can't even get a proper image. See here. So I don't want to use that.
I have a video display in my flex app. which is attached to the camera. The camera resolution can vary depending on the user's selection, While the video display (preview) dimensions are fixed. I am then doing this:
bmd.draw(vidDisplay);
Where bmd is the bitmap.. The problem is the resulting bitmap has the correct size of the camera settings (which is set) but the capture from the video is always the size of the video display inside the bitmap.. I hope i am making sense. The result looks like a little picture inside a bigger image top left justified. I want to have a video display preview with fixed height, but be able to take snapshot with varying resolution.
I've made a custom compontent wich mails your own drawings to you. But I have a problem to send an e-mail with attachment. I use the HttpService to send the data to the php-file, but I always get the Fault message (form phpFault()). This is my code in Flex:

I am building a really simple Chat server/client using PHP and Flex. I have followed many tutorials and have a working server in PHP and a working client in Flex, except that if I use the client on Windows I can't send any messages.When I send a message on my Mac it goes through to the server and gets sent to all the clients, including any Windows client I may have connected. The message will actually display on Windows clients as well, it's only when I try sending from Windows that it doesn't work.
I've tried adding a crossdomain.xml file served by a PHP script listening on the correct port, but none of the clients ever seem to ask for it, and if the client works on Mac I assumed it should work on Windows. By the way I'm exporting the project as an AIR file (dunno if that makes a difference).I can't find anything regarding this so I'm wondering if I'm being stupid somewhere or whether I need to takes some special measures for Windows clients?I have pasted my client code below.

I trying to import an XML file, and send bits and pieces to a custom component. My XML file is structured like this:

When I save the project, I do not get any errors or warnings. However, when I attempt to output the values in the component, the projectPositions piece comes back as Null.
I succeeded in sending typed objects from a PHP application to a flex front-end using Zend_AMF as per this question. The problem I am facing now is that I would like to send a typed object from flex to PHP and on the PHP side, be able to receive it as a typed object instead of stdClass.
Here is the class in flex:
package com.mysite{
[Bindable]
[RemoteClass(alias="CTest")]
public class CTest {
public var stuff1:String;
[Code] .....
After some testing, I removed the namespace from the PHP object and moved it into the global namespace. This seems to have resolved the issue. I have tried setting RemoteClass to modules estingCTest and also modules.testing.CTest. $_eplicitType was then set to the same value for both tests. The result is that when I use modules.testing.CTest, this is the classname that Zend_AMF sees. If I use namespace notation, Zend_AMF sees modulestestingCTest, as all the slashes get stripped out. But how can I get this working with php namespaces?
I am using remote object in flex to call a method in amfphp. I have project setup properly with a services-config.xml in d src, d end point uri pointing to the gateway.php.

View 2 RepliesI am developing a website in php hosted on a shared linux server.I need to allow the users of my site to upload and play flv videos with flowplayer.It would be fantastic to show a snapshot of the video before it starts, something like these: http:[url]...My server doesn't support pseudostreaming and it has no ffmpeg/mplayer support (it's a shared host after all...)
I am guessing how can I take a snapshot of the nth frame of the video with only php or javascript or action script.I read something about bitmapdata class in flash >= 8, but i don't know how to do all the work automatically without the user's input.
I am in search of a "simple" way to implement the generation of a JPG from a Flash SWF housed within an HTML page. DETAILS: Once a visitor has assembled draggable objects within the SWF, and to their liking, I would like for them to have the ability to click a button that would render a JPG version of their layout. Hope this makes sense. I have found source codes online, in conjunction with PHP scripting, but am struggling to make this work.
View 1 RepliesI have a flex app which allows user to create some content. this content will then be sent via xml back to the server:
private function saveBackXMLToServer():void {
var params:Object = {};
params["xml_file"] = XML_content();
http_Service.send(params);
}
My problem is, that the transport of the data this way is very slow... It takes about 20 sec for 10'000 lines of XML... How can this be done better?
I'm trying to follow all of your hints, but they don't seem to be simple to change. My code is done in a way that I can't get access to every Object, and save it. So what I do is to load the swf file with one xml, and return the whole xml after I run it. My guess is, that the time isn't spent on transporting those lines to the web server (this task gets done quickly normally), I thing that there happens something on the send function of the HTTPService that every object must get changed, before sending...
UPDATE2: I just realized that it is not a matter of the flex app it is a matter of the rails app. It receives a 700 KB String. I guess it is not done for handling such a object. How to transport it then? I tryed to work with the file upload but couldn't get it done... Error 2037 was occuring! I'll go on trying.
I'm using Mate's RemoteObjectInvoker to call methods in my FluorineFX based API. However, all requests seem to be sent to the server sequentiality. That is, if I dispatch a group of messages at the same time, the 2nd one isn't sent until the first returns. Is there anyway to change this behavior?
