How can I organize, and compress my flash website so it could load really fast on a broadband or even a 56k connection. I created a basic html website with the same photos and text and it loaded way faster then the same photos and text in my flash document (with no animation).
View 1 Replieswe just set up FMS and basically what's happening is im using the standard run-of-the mill FLVplayback component and I try to run a video (an MP4) file which is streamed through FMS. The video plays, but intermittently chops.
Next test:
Akamai SMIL file with sthe same player plays totally smoothe, no problems.
Next test:
Put new video on FMS server (video chops intermittently) - we then go right next to the server, with literally a 300K second download speed. Still chops.
Next test:
Try different media, same thing.
So essentially the FMS server CANNOT stream any videos properly. Its not a bandwidth issue, and it makes no sense.
I try different video players, tried changing the bufferTime properties, same thing. The FMS server is running at 0% cpu and is a fast machien.
FMS settings I can do to get optimal performance?
On the home page of my website I have a Flash banner near the top, with a slideshow of my work. The problem is that the Flash file is 300k and takes a while to load on slower Internet connections, and I was wondering if anyone had any tips for me to optimise it. [URL].
View 1 RepliesI'm using swfobject to load a flash object on my site and it's loading very slowly on pages with a lot of data...as if swfobject waits until the page loads before loading the swf. Here's an example page with swfobject: [URL] If I change out the swfobject code with an iframe (with the swf as the src) or just use object embed, the flash object loads much, much faster...before the rest of the page loads.
I know there are a ton of page load time improvements I could make to that page (I'm working on that as well), but I'm wondering if there are some specific changes I could make to the way I'm using swfobject to get the same loading speed as an iframe or object embed?

View 2 RepliesI'm using this code to create a netstream connection, to load my external FLV-files
ActionScript Code:
var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection;
nc.connect(null);
var ns:NetStream = new NetStream(nc);
later in my script i use this code to attach a external video in my netstream and start to play it
ActionScript Code:
_root.contentFoto.contentFoto.holder.attachVideo(ns);
ns.play("vids/" + dataList[activeSub].dataInfo[item].pic);
How do I stop that clip and unload the movie of my netstream
Problem is that my rewind and fast forward buttons do not work properly in the sense that they start to mess up when you fast forward or rewind past the current scene. It seems to just skip through the whole movie and totally mess up the animation.the code for the controls is on a single layer and reads as the following:
stop();
play_btn.onRelease = function (){
play();

Some background info: I'm trying to create a website to upload my photography portfolio to; the URL is as such [URL] So what I have done is create a parent page and created a variable that functions as a loader. Whenever a button is clicked an external swf file is loaded into that variable. And within those external swf files are additional buttons that will load an image into another loader.
Here's my question; for those of you who've tried the site will realise the images are taking an eternity to load, everything I learn about actionscript tells me this should not be the case. Each of the photographs are between 100 - 300kb in file size and really should not take more than a few seconds. This leads me to conclude theres something wrong with my code.
The code itself is nothing special, in fact it is the absolute most newbie way of creating a function eventlistener for every button. This is the code for the parent page;
var loader = new Loader();
var Xpos:Number = 440;
var Ypos:Number = 380;
[code]...
Here is where things got hectic for me for a while. I tried using the same type of code in the parent page for the external swf pages, for some reason it does not work, I had use the loader component (component's instance name is interfaceloader);
Product_A.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,Produc tA);
function ProductA(event:MouseEvent):void {
interfaceloader.source = "Product_A.jpg";
}
Once again to summarise my issues; why are 100 - 300kb images taking so long to load even on a ADSL connection and is my code part of that problem?
Im trying to make connection from flex to java and from java to mysql. I managed to connect to java, but having error that class not found: com.mysql.jdbc.Driver. But i downloaded mysql.jar, included it added to library, and connection works when i testing it from clipse scrapbook. Dont know what to do, i spend last couple days on this.
Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver");
String username = "username";
String password = "password";

Basically the solution was simple. Everybody keeps saying to put jar into lib folder, so i done it, but i wasnt realised that i have to put into my servers lib directory, not app lib directory and this miserable mistake cost so much. Anyway i hope this will help for some newbie like me.In this particular situation im using red5, so i putted it into my red5 dist/lib directory and "surprisingly" its started to work.

Got a 31fps .swf that when I play it in Flash from Test Movie plays at the proper speed. However, when I test it in a browser, the .swf plays about twice as fast. The movie does load a H.264 .m4v video at frame one so I'm wondering if that has something to do with it. Does anyone know of a way I can force the .swf to play at 31 fps?

I encoded an AVI w/ Media Encoder and dropped the FLV into a Flash playback component.In my compiled SWF, the video plays in hyperspeed (like it has a really fast framerate), but the audio plays normally.It seems like an encoding issue, but could it be something in Flash?I'm guessing there's some setting mismatch -- different bitrate, framerate, dimensions?[code]...
View 5 RepliesI seem to be having a problem with removeMovieClip.In my little ol' game I've been working on, I have a big problem. The removeMovieClip command only works half of the time. When using the Desert Eagle, a slow-firing weapon, both bullet shells and bullets are duplicated and used properly, and remove themselves when their time has come as programmed. But when using an automatic weapon... it seems to be duplicated shells and bullets so fast that they don't remove themselves properly!
How it works: Let's take the bullet shells, for example. The bullet shells are created and run a bunch of scripts to fall realistically. Once they hit the ground they run an animation which makes a little sound, makes 'em bounce off the floor a bit then stay still for 5 seconds. After those 5 seconds, they're removed. It's that simple, yet it doesn't work.
I hate having to show everybody my stuff every time there's a bug but I trust you guys with my problems (this project is mostly for experience anyways). Try using the Pistol (1) and you'll see it working fine. Then try using the M4A1 (2) or the Steyr AUG (3) and press down on the mouse button for automatic mode. Those bullet shells won't dissapear. Warning: DO NOT aim at the box. I'm also having a problem removing those bullets, so it bugs when you aim at the box.
I have preloader.swf in html (as3) that loads 1.swf (as2) which is my main page, the problem appears when it is in half way of preloading - 1.swf is getting started, it runs several frames, stops and it waits until preloader loads to 100%. I want 1.swf to be started when preloader reaches 100% not earlier.
Code:
preloader.scaleX = 0;
var loader = new Loader();
loader.load(new URLRequest("1.swf"));

Searched around for this one a bit. Kinda sucks that there are a lot of synonyms for HSV.
HSB, HLS, HSL, HSB, HBS, etc.
Basically Hue, Saturation and ( Brightness / Value / Luminosity ).
What I am trying to accomplish is an extremely fast way to convert 24-bit RGB values to 24-bit HSV values. I've tried a few different ways with somewhat unexpected results.
Using a lookup table for every 24-bit color eats tons of memory and is actually slower than calculating the values on-the-fly (doesn't make sense to me).
Here's a partial example of what I currently use:
Code:
package org.peaceoutside.utils

public class ColorMath

You don't have to understand anything the problem is into the intro. It is quite simple but I don't really know how to fix it. The problem is the movie in the first page start before it totally loaded so depending of your connection and your cpu in doesn't start at the begin.
I want to fix that.
Here's my structure.
I have a swf which load the "template" which load another swf which load the movie
index.swf (preloader)--->base.swf--->preloader2.swf---->movie.swf
I think that the only thing you need is the code of the preloader
Code:
//code for the preloader and loader element
var l:Loader = new Loader();
l.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, loop);
