CopyPixels alternative in Flash Player 6?

I've written an app in Flash Player 8 that relies on
BitmapData and its copyPixels method to dice up a bitmap image into
little tiles. I've now learned that this app needs to work under
Flash Player 6 as well, but neither BitmapData nor copyPixels seem
to be available to Flash Player 6. Is there some alternative I can
use, or do I have to do it the hard way (dice up the image by
hand)?

You can't use the FLVplayback component - you have to use a
media controller.
Look in the Components window for Media - Player 6-7 and drag
over the MediaPlayback component to the stage. Select it, and open
the component inspector. Put in the file name of the flv in the URL
parameter.
Here is a sample, sorry for the poor quality but it is to
show it works only:

This was created with Flash 8 Pro. The "publish settings"
were changed to Flash Player 6 before final publishing.

  • What is the iPad alternative to Flash Player?

    What is the iPad alternative to Flash Player?

    There are alternate browsers that redirect flash content to their servers, change it to stuff that works on iOS and send it to your device.
    They mostly kind of work.
    Look at skyfire, photon, iswifter, puffin.
    Read some reviews and see if one will work for you.

  • Alternative for flash player

    Is there any iPhone alternative for video requiring a flash player?

    You can try the Skywire app and service. People report various levels of success.
    If you don't mind leaving your computer running you can try one of the remote desktop apps such as SplashTop.
    Both are in the Apps Store.

  • Alternative to Adobe Flash Player for Macs running Yosemite

    Is there a reliable and secure alternative to Adobe Flash Player for Macs running Yosemite?  I keep getting websites telling me that I can see a video because my Flash Player needs to be updated.  But I haven't wanted to install it as I've heard negative things about it and Macs.  Is there an alternative to Flash Player?  And if so, what is it and where do I find it?

    Being that Flash is very insecure, I've completely removed it from my MacBook Pro. The best alternative is to uninstall Flash from your system and download Google Chrome as it has Flash build into it and you're not vulnerable unless you're browsing in Chrome. If Safari is your main browser, as mine is, then you need to open Safari Preferences, go to Advanced and click the checkbox for 'Show Develop menu in menu bar'. Once you've done this, the Develop menu bar menu shows up and you can click it and choose 'Open Page With' and choose Chrome. It is a bit cumbersome, but it removes the vulnerability when browsing in Safari as many sites are now using HTML5. Hope this help.

  • Basics on using Adobe Flash Player

    I'm trying to get a better understanding of some of the basics concerning Adobe Flash Player. 
    I'm developing a web page with some third party software and have been provided with an HTML file to add to the site.  If I try to launch the HTML file either in the web site or stand-alone, nothing happens.  However, the person who provided me with the file sees an animation, apparently because she has Flash Player installed and I don't. 
    There's a large user community who will view the site and rather than expect all users to install Flash Player, I'm looking for an alternative.  What I'm missing is how Flash Player effectively creates an animation from the HTML file that I was provided with ... HTML files are by themselves static.  I was hoping that I could somehow convert this animation into a WMV or similar file type that could run without having the site users install any software.
    I'd appreciate any ideas on this.  Thanks.

    Flash content on a web site is usually in the form of a SWF file.  The Flash Player browser add-on will then play its content.  That, of course, requires that Flash Player is installed on the client side.
    The alternative to Flash Player is HTML5, which is supported by all modern web browsers, and does not require the installation of any browser add-on.  See http://www.w3schools.com/html/html5_intro.asp

  • Flash Player not supported on Android

    If I'd known so many websites rely on Flash Player to run their content I would not have wasted my money on an Android tablet. I did not know that Adobe has withdrawn support for Android devices. I have version 4.1.1 and I've downloaded the archived Flash Player version that is available on the Adobe site, which only goes up to version 4.0 and so it makes no difference, I still cannot watch content on web sites that use Adobe Flash Player. I have made sure I have ticked allow unknown in settings but that makes no difference. Does anyone know please of a solution or are all Android tablet owners stuffed and at the mercy of having to wait months or years for web site developers to create alternatives to Flash Player for running content on Android devices?

    "Why should a retailer have told me that?"
    I don't know... probably the same reason a For dealer should tell you that a  Focus ISN'T the ideal vehicle to pull a 26 ft cabin cruiser. We live in an age where a company can be "killed" in a day by "viral" complaints from consumers. Look at B of A and what happened when they decided to gouge people for electronic transactions in 2011. Nearly a million and a half customers dropped them in seventy two hours... over a $3.50 fee. Imagine if everyone like you, who bought a tablet with the mistaken perception that it was "ready" to run Internet video, decided to "stick it to" Samsung, or Amazon or Apple... or all three over it. I mean, a tablet costs a LOT MORE than $3.50, and you basically just wasted your money, like a fee for something everyone does anyway.
    As to who fired the first shot in the war over Flash that goes all the way back to the first iPhone and Apple. THEY set the standard that mobile devices wouldn't be Flash friendly. The reason? Another thing retailers won't tell you:
    Flash content is VERY processor consumptive, and as such eats batteries in mobile devices. That was Apple's number one reason for making iOS incompatible with Flash more than six years ago. The rest of the mobile industry followed suit. Adobe didn't see the sense in pursuing continued development of something that was used less and less with each passing week. Flash is a dying technology and it WILL be replaced by HTML5 video content in less than two years. As a web designer, the "mobile web" has changed about 80% of what I do. That includes no longer developing "inaccessible" Flash content for clients, even over their objections.
    "I would not have known to have had a specific question such as 'does this device support Flash' why would I?"
    An uninformed consumer is an easily suckered consumer, and if a retailer like, say... BestBuy, won't let you "fire up" a tablet and check it out before you buy, there's something they're hiding from you. That alone should be a red flag. On the other hand, if you just "bought the first tablet you saw advertised", then there's really no place to stick the fault, is there?  I've NEVER bought ANY electronic device without researching it first, and with one exception where a retailer sold me one thing, ( a G5 iMac) advertised and described as another (a 1st generation Intel iMac),  for which I received a FULL refund, I've ALWAYS known exactly what I was getting and what it would or would not do. "Caveat Emptor" as they say. I'm not saying this is your fault, but it's not liek this "snuck up" on the Android market overnight. We're talking 18 to 24 months ago.

  • Possible to uninstall Flash Player for specific browser with Uninstaller program?

    Greetings,
    I'm using a domain login script to deploy Flash Player across 400 or so PCs. Currently the script is set up to run the Flash Player Uninstaller executable prior to running the IE Flash Player Installer executable. The problem with this is that the Uninstaller seems to uninstall Flash Player versions regardless of browser type, whereas the installer is always for a particular browser.
    Specifically, in our environment our supported browser is IE, but we allow users to run other browsers such as Firefox and Chrome (but they must apply security updates themselves). When we deploy a new login script to install the latest version of Flash Player, the typical user will be unaffected because they use only IE. However, users running Firefox will suddenly be unable to use flash after the Flash Player installer script is run.
    So is it possible to use the Flash Player Uninstaller program to uninstall Flash Player for only a specific browser? Alternatively, will Flash Player uninstall cleanly (and the keyword is _cleanly_) if the installer is run without using the Uninstaller program?
    Thank you in advance for your reply.

    You may get a more official reply from Adobe here.
    To the best of my knowledge your observation is correct: the uninstaller tool will always uninstall all installed versions (ActiveX 32-bit, ActiveX 64-bit, plugin 32-bit, plugin 64-bit).
    From my experience, the uninstaller from Control Panel will uninstall cleanly - as long as no browser is running during the uninstall.  With cleanly I mean that no files are left behind; I have no knowledge if there are registry entries left behind (with the uninstaller tool, or with the Control Panel uninstaller).
    For your specific problem: why don't you always install both the ActiveX and plugin for all users? The plugin is just a single dll that is added to the install folder (two, respectively, on 64-bit systems).

  • What operating system smartphone is compatible with Adobe Flash Player?

    What operating system smartphone is compatible with Adobe Flash Player?

    Hello,
    Flash Player is no longer supported on mobile devices.  With that said, you can manually install the last supported version of Flash Player for Android devices using the instructions here "Why can't I install Flash Player on my Tablet?" (Kindle or Samsung Galaxy). Do note that this is very old and has not been updated with any security fixes.  This FAQ offers some alternatives to Flash Player on Android devices.

  • Why are egreetings telling me I need Adobe flash player when I have already downloaded the app?

    Why are egreetings telling me that I cannot view a card because I haven't got Adobe flash player when I got the app from the store recently, I am new to the iPad and being a silver surfer I could be doing something wrong. Please help.

    There is no Flash Player for the iPad. I don't know what you downloaded, but if it was from the iTunes Store, it wasn't Flash Player. If you search this or the Using iPad forum for "flash", you'll find a number of suggestions as to alternatives to Flash Player, such as Puffin, but whether any will work with the card site you wish to use I can't say; none of the solutions work with all sites.
    Regards.

  • Flash Player 10 and OS X 10.3.9

    Is there an alternative to Flash Player 10 for OS X 10.3.9 users? or are we out of luck? Adult Swim has a videos section that used to work, but now doesn't unless I upgrade my flash player to version 10. This is the URL:
    http://www.adultswim.com/video/index.html
    I do have iBook G4 upgrade install CDs to 10.4, but they don't work for the PowewrBook G4 I'm using. Unless there's a way to get them to work?
    Thanks

    This Adobe page lists the hardware & software requirements for Flash 10.
    http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/systemreqs/ Does your Powerbook meet the minimum hardware requirements?
    If so, you need to upgrade the Powerbook to OS Tiger 10.4, using a retail install version. But Tiger install DVDs are in short supply. Tiger is no longer available at the Apple Store but is still available for $129 by calling Apple Phone Sales @ 1-800-MY-APPLE (1-800-692-7753). For other sources, do a Google search for MA453Z/A and M9639Z/A . Also look on eBay. Be sure & buy a retail version (black with silver X) and not a model specific version (gray).
    Also check this web store http://www.lacomputercompany.com/cgi-bin/rpcart/index.cgi?command=dispitem&type= sku&sku=19521
    Possible Alternative - OS X Tiger 10.4 Upgrade DVD $74.95
    http://www.yourmacstore.com/shop/shopexd.asp?id=376&bc=no
    The gray OS install disc(s) that come with a Mac are specific to that model Mac and can't be used on another model Mac.
