I'm playing around with streaming live video to the Flash Player. The problem is, it seems (from my logs) that many users will open a live video feed and then just leave it open all day, whether or not they are actually watching it.

Problem is, I need to do it dynamically so I can pick...
I have a SWC file with a skinned version of the ActionScript 3 UI components. I want to use this SWC file on 'some' of my projects so instead of dropping the file in the Adobe Flash CS4\Common\Configuration\Components path, which makes it available to every Flash project, I add the path to my SWC file in the Publish Settings > Flash > Se...

Is it possible to enable the "show redraw regions" programmatically? From AS3 code, I mean. Or is it exclusively a feature of the context menu? Our current C++ hosting app does not pass through right-clicks and I'd like to avoid changing that code. This is all for testing, doesn't have to be pretty. ...
