Hi, I am currently digging into the whole Flash 3D stuff and I am quite unsure which engine I should use. I really prefer haXe for development but ActionScript 3 is also fine. Therefore I would like to ask you about experiences you have made! If you answer this question please consider the following points: Easy to use? Easy to learn...
Hi, My Flex application is built using ant. The html wrapper task is as follows: <target name="wrapper"> <html-wrapper title="{$title}" file="login.htm" height="300" width="400" application="app" swf="Main.swf" version-major="9" version-minor="0" version-revis...
What is the simple way to protect Flash Media Server? Here is what i mean. Will suppose FMS used only for publish and play operations (simple video chat). So anybody can use this server for own needs... What is why i ask. Maybe when swf was downloaded from my site, pass into parameter like session id, and after FMS can make rpc call to...
We are using a flash media server to serve streaming media (H.264) for our application. Within the application itself we have implemented authentication (CAS) and authorization so only certain people can see certain videos. The problem, however, is that if the users just looked at the source they could see the external link to our flash ...

I am interested in streaming audio on my website, but I have no clue where to begin. There are two types of streaming I hope to achieve. The first would be streaming a playlist of songs stored on the server and the second would be live audio streaming. Can anybody recomend any good sites or plugins to use? ...
In MXML-based apps, you set the target framerate for the app and I believe this is a core part of Flash as well. Two questions... In many games you want the game to run as fast as it can for graphical smoothness, with some upper cap like 50-100Hz. How can you have variable framerates in Flash, or is it really not how things work? What ...
I have an RTMP stream loading and would like to know the drop off time of the video. Is there a method of knowing when a person abruptly leaves the video session by closing the window, back button, address bar, etc? Or do i need to make an external interface call from JavaScript to Flash using something like onunload & onbeforeunload ev...
Does anyone have experience with printing directly to a Photo ID Card printer in a web browser? I have a web application that manages user data, photo, and so forth. I'd like to add a Print ID Card feature to it. The web application is a single page javascript application that talks to a RESTful web service via JSON. I'd like to display...
I have been asked to research teaching a module in game development to beginners (no programming skills) of the age group 18-30, at a secondary school level. The course will run for roughly 8-10 months and each student would probably get 3 hours of teaching time per week. My initial thoughts were to propose using Flash, since the stude...
I have 3 questions to clarify my workflow of AIR apps: Can I use Spark components when I'm making a game with Flash CS5? Can I import SWC (created in Flash) in my AIR for Android projects when I'm using Flash Builder? Can I load a full SWF game (created in Flash) in an AIR for Android app (example: Main menu of the game written in MXML...
Basically, I have two routines: One is a CDK collision check, and the other is a generic verification of an array. They're both inside the same Timer Event. There are two arrays - the collisionList and the MasterArray, and the object is in both of them. First, the collision routine: var collisions:Array = collisionList.checkCollisi...
Hey guys, This is probably something simple but I'm scratching my head over easing with the Animate class in Flex 4. Basically I'm just trying to set easing via: anim.easer = spark.effects.easing.EaseInOutBase(EasingFraction.IN_OUT); however, it complains, saying Type Coercion failed: cannot convert 0.5 to spark.effects.easing.Ease...
Hi there I'm busy communicating with my Flash file with a PHP script which in turns communicates with my db, I need to pass an array from PHP back to Flash, which happens correctly I assume, but I'm unable to unserialize the string correctly when it returns, my string looks like this: memberNum=2&success=1&teamMemberID%5B0%5D=1&teamMem...
I'm trying to simulate a rollercoaster game with ActionScript 3, but i don't know exactly if I should use a 2d engine (like Box2d) or do it from scratch. For any of those I would like to see some code example. Any ideas, pointers, suggestions... Thanks in advance! ...
In AS3, I'm trying to check whether an object is an instance of, or extends a particular class. Using something like if (object is ClassName) works fine if the object is an instance of ClassName but not if it's an instance of a class that extends ClassName. Pseudo-code example: class Foo {} class Bar extends Foo {} var object = new Ba...
Hi, I received an swf (AS3) file that works when you pass it variables through flashvars. I can't recompile it to work in a different way because we only bought the compiled swf, not the source. We could use it in an HTML page, but the problem is we must use it (in a sort of proprietary) Windows form (fundamentally, an application that t...
