Saving File Takes Too Long?
Feb 6, 2012
I have a problem when saving flash files in a mac. The process is much slower than in my other computer with windows, using the same file. I save my flash files very often and having to wait that long is very annoying. The problem can't be the file itself, I have tried saving different files and there is always more delay in mac compared to windows. In my mac I have OS X 10.7.2 (Lion) with Flash 5.5 and in my other pc, Windows XP SP3 with Flash CS 5. Has somebody experienced this before? What could be the origin? It's weird because my mac is new and is supposed to have better features than my windows pc which I bought many years ago I am a relatively new mac user and I have heard some people complaining about Lion OS X. What is your opinion?

I'm trying to play a 10 minute long video (h264/mp4) which is 39MB in size, after I call stream.play(fileURL) it doesn't start playback until its loaded around 12-16MB of the file (many many seconds later), I finally get onMetaData at this point too. Why doesn't it begin playback right away, or at least w/in a couple seconds? What can cause this bloated lead in time?

For some reason connecting to Flash Media Server 3.5 takes around 40 seconds. The server is running on Windows Server 2008 (64-bit edition) on a virtual server located in a reliable hosting center and I'm connecting to it over the internet. The server is using built-in Windows Firewall with all the inbound TCP ports required by Flash Media Server opened (80, 1935 and 1111).
If I disable the server's firewall the connection time drops to 20 seconds, but it's still pretty damn long time just for establishing connection. We probably have some company firewall at this end (the client side), but other streaming media services works just fine over this connection.

I am loading some XML with HTTPService in Flex. It is taking longer than I would like to load. So I want to do some trouble shooting, but in order to tell what is making a difference I need to be able to time the requests and how long they are taking.
What is the best way to time an http service to see how long it took from HTTPService.send() to HTTPService.result

I'm trying to play some sounds in my flash project through action script. However for some reason in my code the call to Sound.play takes from 40ms to over 100ms in extreme cases, which is obviously more than enough to be very noticeable whenever a sound is played. This happens every time a sound is played, not just when that sound is first played, so I dont think its because the Sound object is still loading data or anything like that...
At the start I have this to load the sound:
class MyClass
{
[Embed(source='data/test_snd.mp3')] private var TestSound:Class;
private var testSound:Sound;//flash.media.Sound
[Code].....
This as far as I can tell is following the same process as other Flash programs I found, however none of them seem to have this problem. Is there something that I've missed that would cause the play() method to be so slow?

I just created a basic flash file to play a video on my web page and it's taking several minutes to load before it starts playback. I'm using progressive downlaod and the file is in *.mov format and is 84MB in size. At first that seemed large to me for web play back, but I thought it could handle it since I thought the way progressive download works is that it would start playing the first frame right away and progressively play other frames as they download. However, this seems to be downloading the whole file first (or a major part of it) before starting any playback at all.
Is there some kind of setting I'm missing or is my understanding of the download incorrect and the file size is too large? Some vitals: I'm using Flash Pro CS5 - To create my flash file, I used the standard import video wizard and selected the a file that is "on my computer" and "load external video with playback component" and then, I selected one of the standard skins.- To deploy the vidoe on my webiste I have three files:
1) swf file containing the FLV component
2) the swf file related to skin
3) the actual video (84MB, mov file) - Web page includes/embeds reference to swf file

step1- I got an xml that is locally loaded(works fine)
step2- the content goes into a datagrid that is displayed (works fine)
step3- In AS3 I dynamically add some lines to this xml file(works fine)
step4- I save it locally (works fine)
step5-and want the datagrid to be updated..(works not-so-well)
So, in step 4, the data is saved into the xml file, but in order to finish the save, the user has to click on the "Save as" windows in order to have the file updated of course.. and that's where's my problem, how can i tell flash to wait till the user actually saves the file, before reload the xml file in the datagrid ? here's the code :

I'm using Flash to create a simple profile on a recording artist for work. I'm trying to embed a minute-long .mov file into Flash, so when someone clicks the "watch" button I created, it changes frames and plays this .mov file.
I have everything uploaded, but the .mov file only shows up on certain computers when someone actually clicks the "watch" button. It works on my Mac, a friend's Mac, but on the three PCs I've tested, it won't show up. The Flash file itself works, but the .mov file won't show up on the frame when it is accessed.
The flash file containing the .mov is embedding onto a .php page made in Dreamweaver. On all computers, when the .swf is accessed directly, the .mov file will work properly. On the PCs, when the .php page is accessed and the Flash loads, the .mov will not load.
Here are the links:
[URL]
- Click the "Watch" button on the Flash page when it loads. The .mov file should automatically load there.

I have never worked on flash - I used a developer to code a flash based webcam recorder that runs on red5 as backend. He provided me with the swf file and the source like mxml file.This recorder has 3 images and the total size of swf file is 800KB.Now when I load it on my production server - this page takes sometimes upto 10 secs to load. I'm completely lost as to what the reason is and not sure where to start debugging.I'm not sure if the problem is in the flash code or is it that red5 is taking a long time to establish the connection.

im following some suggestions to cut my flash website into a few sections to make preloading a bit easier.
so all i want is to make a small round ring rotate as long as the file is loading. so i looked and followed a lot tutorials but all the preloaders tutorials are much more compliceted then i need. they all have persentige sowing, and a bar that is filling according to how much the file has loaded, and colors changing etc. so i tried to take from the tutorials wat i need for my simple preloader to work but i get stuck.i built the animation of the rotating ring, but i get stuck with the actions i need to make the animation work as long as the file is working. i called my ring animation "circularloader". here is a image of the page with the ring:

I've got a file upload that's working just fine except for the fact that the Event.COMPLETE event seems to take way longer than it should to fire. The Progress event is firing just fine and filling up the progress bar, and on top of that the entire file arrives on the server just fine, and way before the complete event fires. I've read I need to echo something back from the server, but I have no idea what that should be.

After reading previous forums I've realised there is a corrupt picture that was imported into the file. I've deleted this in the library as people have suggested but still no luck saving the file. It just saves as 1K file.

I have made a cartoon section that needs to go into a video movie, it uses a lot of movie clips etc. It needs to be very high resolution- 1920x1080 When I just export it as an avi, none of the movie clips animate- they just slide around on the first frame of their animations.
When I export is as a .mov the file size is huge and I am not even offered the ability to compress it. It is like 8 gigs. When it was finally done the movie played in slow motion- the clip was about twice as long as it should have been.When I saved the file as an swf, and then tried to convert it to an avi using a converter, all the movie clips moved in doubletime, while the animations in the timeline were fine. How can I get my flash file to play in a standard video format.

I have created an xml driven application with which the client is very happy. They currently use notepad/dw to create the xml files.They now want a "form" of some description to create the xml file to avoid writing tags and so on.I have had a good look around. There is some info about creating the xml itself in as3 (looks pretty easy), but very little about how to save that file to the clients server. I gather that the flash doesn't do this for security reasons?would i be better using php to create the form for my user rather than flash as3. Or is it better to create in as3 and then append a little php to upload the doc? Or am I going abouit this the wrong way!

I have students whose flash file works until it is saved. For instance, they create a untitled.fla file, press ctrl + enter and the swf file plays perfectly. At the end of class they save it, the next day they open it, and none of the AS is executed. The swf file plays as if no AS was ever written.
To make things even more puzzling, the file will play from different drives. For instance, if the .fla file is saved to a thumb drive, everything works. If the file is placed on the desktop everything works. If the same file is placed in a different students directory, everything works. I've contacted Adobe support, they directed me to read their (worthless) forums. I have recontacted their support trying to find some real assistance.

I was wondering if it was possible to save the contents of the output window to a separate txt file like notepad. I'm doing a project that involves testing the execution speed of flash by putting more and more objects on the screen as it plays and I need it to save the result when it freezes up or crashes.

I am opening and testing data using the FileStream class which is supposed to avoid file security issues. It works fine until I try to save to a local file. When I test under adl I get a security error which I though was ok (at least it was attempting to save) until the app was packaged and tested on a device, but the file fails to save.
