Flash lite audio streaming and offline playing

Hi,
I'm interested in developing a mobile application that will
let the user listen to music (progressive download) and on the
other hand let him listen to songs he downloaded while he is
offline.
One of the project constraints is to make sure the files are
encrypted and couldn't play on any other player but mine.
What are my options using flash lite / flash streaming
server?
Thanks a lot

Laurel,
Thanks for the reply. The following URL states for for Flash Lite 2 and 3 states that the "isStreaming" parameter is ignored, when trying to load external URLs for the Sound object:
http://livedocs.adobe.com/flashlite/3.0/docs/help.html?content=00004718.html#136115
How am I supposed to achieve streaming audio if this parameter is ignored?
Thanks,
Bruce

Streaming audio from my IPAD to my Apple TV from Rhapsody application. when Apple TV go into Screen Saver mode, about 5 minutes after that it stops playing the Audio Stream and goes into Sleep mode.

I am Streaming audio from my IPAD to my Apple TV from Rhapsody application. when Apple TV go into Screen Saver mode, about 5 minutes after that it stops playing the Audio Stream and goes into Sleep mode. I am using the Optical Out from the Apple TV to my receiver, the Apple TV is hard Wired to the Network, the IPAD is Wirelessly attached to the network (it continues to play the Audio Stream). When the Apple TV is turned back on it resumes playing once I manual select it for output from the IPAD. All device are on current releases of software. I have no Video hooked up to the Apple TV. How do I correct this?

Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel or adjusting your multicast rate.
There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first. Networks that have inherent issues can be seen to work differently with different versions of the same software. You might also try moving the Apple TV away from other electrical equipment.

Flash Lite 2.1 and Nokia N95

I was waiting for a new version of Flash Lite for my Nokia
N95 because it can't play videos from ordinary web sites. I was
shocked trying to install new Flash Lite 2.1. I got an error:
"Unable to install. Component is built in." Does it mean I can't
never update Flash player in my phone?

Hi degin,
Ah, I understand now. You wish to view web content in your
N95 mobile browser?
Flash Lite 2.x and mobiles in gerneral support a different
format of video, .3gp or .3gp2. You will not be able to view Flash
.flv or WMP videos on your N95.
I have heard that You tube is going to support .3gp video at
some point, and also Flash Lite may support .flv at some point too,
so all is not lost, we just have to wait.
Regards

Getting Big Headache, What is difference between Flash Lite 3.1 and Flash Player 7

Hello, I am asking questions about the two similar yet different programs for Pocket PC version only:
1) Which came first, Flash Lite 3.1 or Flash Player 7?
2) If I have both in my Pocket PC, will there be product incompatibility?
3) What is the difference between Flash Lite 3.1 and Flash Player 7.
4) I have a Flash Lite 3.1 but uninstall information says "Flash Lite 3.1 for Opera Mobile", did you releaase this? Is this an illegal copy? A developer's copy?
*I don't know exactly where I got it, but I got it from the HTC developer's forum: XDA-developers.com
*I also use Opera mobile, a web browser for Pocket PC's.
5) What is difference between Flash Lite 3.1 and Flash Lite 3.1 for Opera? Is the only difference is that Flash Lite Supports everything flash related, while Flash Lite Opera supports only flash in opera?
Hi, I don't expect all answers, but I hope someone or someone from adobe support can clear some things up for me.

The program under my "remove programs" list is specifically called "Adobe Flash Lite for Opera". The XDA forums people said along time ago that it was Flash Lite, and kept calling it Flash Lite, and not Flash Player 7.
Now what about this:
http://www.adobe.com/products/flashlite/version/
The table shows the differences between FP 7 SDK, FL 2.1, and FL 3.1. And it's quite obvious that FL 3.1 has way more features than Flash Player 7. What does SDK mean? And why are you telling me FP 7 has more features?
With this information, can you or anyone else provide any more details and clarification?

Capture the live stream and than play it as vod

Hi guys,
Could anyone explain how can I record the live stream and than play it as a vod at later time?
Is it possible to achive it?
Can you give any tips guys?

Hi Mark,
You can record a livestream by doing a server side record in you application. For example :
1. Create a folder called test under applications
2. Within this folder create a main.asc in any text editor and add :
var pubCount = 0;
application.onConnect=function(clientObj){
          trace("          on connect ");
          return true;
application.onDisconnect=function(clientObj){
          trace("          on disconnect ");
application.onPublish = function(clientObj,streamObj){
trace("          in application publish : " + streamObj.name);
if(pubCount <= 1)
       streamObj.record("record");
else
       streamObj.record("append");
pubCount++;
application.onUnpublish = function(clientObj,streamObj){
trace("on unpublish : " + streamObj.type + ":" + streamObj.name);
streamObj.record(false);
3. You can then publish a stream with the container. If you're using FMLE publish as : mp4:sample.mp4, then the stream sample.mp4 will be recored.
You can then either host the recorded stream directly in AMS and use as vod file or run the post processor tool f4vpp and use it to play in vlc or other players.
Hope this hepls. Let me know if you have any other query.
Thanks,
Apurva

.mp3 compressed audio stream dose not play in AIR

Hi All,
We are trying to load stream audio file with mp3 compression in the AIR app using the follwoing code using FLash CS4 -
var snd:Sound = new Sound();
snd.load(new URLRequest(""http://67.159.30.133""));
snd.play();
This works fine when we publish for flashPlayer 9/10. When we try to publish it using AIR the sound dose not play.
We have tested with another approach, where we are loading sound with .flv compression. Here we are using NetConnection and NetStream method to play the sound. With .flv compression it works well in both flash player version as well AIR versions. On the other side when we try to use NetConnection and NetStream method to play .mp3 compressed audio stream it dose not pl when we publish in AIR or flashplayer.
If anyone having any info to play .mp3 compressed format in AIR file will be very much appreciable.
Regards,
Kaushik

Add audio files and control play in pdf

Hi, newbie here. I have a set of large text documents in Word and corresponding mp3 audio files. I am trying to create pdf's with the audio files embedded at specific points in the text. I can put audio in and play it, but there is no controls for the audio. I have seen a pdf file with a play-pause-stopbar that works, but cannot figure out how to do it. Any and all help is greatly appreciated. Using Acrobat Pro7 (can upgrade if needed). Thanks
Just another thought, is there a small flash player that can be mbedded into a pdf?

Thanks. I have upgraded and used the new conversion to Flash for the mp3 and
it works well. The look of the player isn't the greatest but it suits my
needs. Thanks again.

Flash player audio chirps and video delays

When playing recorded videos the audio "chirps" and sounds
like a tape deck with the speed varying. The video is anywhere from
1 to 3 seconds behind the audio.

Found this in Techsmith's Camtasia forum, dated 1-10-08,
posted by one of the Camtasia developers:
"We've also been working with Adobe Flash Player TechSupport,
who has been very responsive and helpful. They have confirmed the
bug, and escalated it as a high priority issue to their engineers.
We're hoping that it can be fixed in a future version of the Flash
Player."
FWIW.

Audio stream won't play in Premiere, but does in FCP?

I got some footage to edit from a director who shot the project on the Sony XDCam3. He then converted the footage to MOV's in a software that Sony provides so he could give it to me to edit. He wants the project edited in Premiere Pro 5.5 because that's what he's got on his machine and if he wants to, he'd like to make changes later on. So, the problem is the footage imports fine. The video stream is there and plays, but the audio stream just seems empty. It's there, but no audio. I then tested the same clip in FCP and it works perfectly. Plays fine, video and audio. I'm not sure what the issue is. I'm attaching a screen shot of the specs on the clips if that might help get to the bottom of what my issue is. Thanks so much for any help on this!

AE CS5 (10.0.1.19) Ram Preview - Audio stops and continue playing randomly

I already reported this issue to Adobe as a BUG but I want to ask here if somebody else have this problem or can confirm it.
Audio breaks/stops and continue playing randomly when 'Ram Previewing'
It happens mostly when the RAM is fully filled up with image cache files! When the Ram is not filled up totally with image cache files it happens rarely!
Steps to reproduce BUG / issue:
1. create a new composition with a length of for example 5 minutes.
2. create a new solid with size of 50x50 pixel and animate the position of the solid for a very long time so when ram previewing the whole ram/memory gets filled up with different image cache data (this is very important!). Alternatively you could use a long video file to fill up the RAM completely.
3. import a wave file .wav 16bit 48khz uncompressed which is very long for example 5 minutes.
4. insert the wave file in the earlier created composition which contain the animated solid or video file.
5. Set the work area bar (preview range) for the whole composition.
'Ram Preview' the composition until the whole RAM/memory is filled up with image data.
AE has to stop rendering because there is no more space available in RAM.
make sure 'from current time' checkbox is off.
6. listen to the audio which stops playing randomly for about 1-2 seconds and comes back and continues playing (***BUG***)
7. Now set the right handle of the composition work area bar (preview range) to less then the maximum RAM size
(less then the green cache indicator on the right side)
8. "Purge image caches" or "Purge All"
9. Ram preview the now smaller work area
10. listen to the audio. The audio breaks are gone! (***Workaround***)
Additional information:
I have the latest After Effects CS5 update installed (10.0.1.19)
This behavior is tested with different audio drivers inside After Effects CS5 (After Effects WDM Sound, Generic Low Latency ASIO Driver, ASIO DirectX Full Duplex Driver)
I also tried different Sample Sizes Buffers (alternatively to the default 2048 samples) but without success.
Reducing the amount of RAM which After Effects can access didn't solve the problem!
System:
Win7 64bit all latest Updates, 8GB RAM, CPU: intel Core 2 Extreme QX9300, nVidia Quadro FX 2700M, IDT High Definition Audio Driver v6.10.0.6227
There is no driver problem on my system because After Effects CS3 & CS4, Premiere & Soundbooth CS3 CS4 CS5 have no audio problems!
I have lots of other professional audio software like Steinberg Cubase 5.... on the same system and they all work fine.
I also turned off AVG Anitivirus and Windows firewall for testing without success.
AdobeQT32Server.exe, dynamiclinkmanager.exe, PProHeadless.exe, afterfx.exe do not get blocked by firewall they have full permission.
The CS5 Production Premium installation went fine and without errors and antivirus protection was turned off for the installation.
Any help would be nice!
Felix

Yep, I agree with craulmedia....
It's 1 month ago after my initial post and no valuable feedback from Adobe although I filled out the bug report in addition to this post and provide my email for further information.
The only reason for upgrading from CS4 -> CS5 production suite was the use of all my 8GB RAM in AE and now AE can use it but when it's using it the audio have issues.
CS5 is on the market for nearly a year and still have such essential issues... And my fear rises there will be no valuable update fixing these issues but instead Adobe forces me to upgrade later this year to CS6 in hope something change...
I have had support request for different Adobe products in the past including telephone support, web support via Adobe ID... none with success the web support answered my request 3 weeks later with the message they will look into it... time went by and in the end the result was "Yes we know it's a known bug" the bug did not get fixed for that CS version. it even exists in the next major CS release! (talking about EncoreDVD here). Once the web support answered weeks later when I was in holidays and after some days I was not able to respond they closed my case. I reopened the case but never got an answer! Telephone support is nearly waste of time because in 95% of all cases it does not help to reinstall the whole operating system and talking to people who know less about computers in general or Adobe products then my mom - it's a waste of time.
I don't want to blame here anybody for things happend in the past I just want to point out that this time I choose an other support channel (bug report and forum post) but it seems that this support channel is also a waste of time after 1 month with no valueable feedback!
I bumped up this post 2 times and thanks to craulmedia for the third time.
And now here is my fourth time *BUMP*
All I got so far is: "I saw your bug report it's in the queue"
Is it still in the queue? which queue nr. does it have? how long will it take to get any answer? is it reproducible? Is it confirmed as a known bug by Adobe? Is Adobe working on a fix? When will this fix be available? Is the fix provided in form of an update or in the next major release?
OK, I know this is a user to user forum and Adobe people only stop by in their free time and there is no guarantee for any real support.
But it started out so good in the first time...
Last 2 things I want to add here:
1. Why should I provide my email in the bug report? Sure so Adobe can get back to me for further information... but wouldn't it be nice if Adobe would be so kind to give some status report to that given email as a small present for the enthusiastic beta testers ?
2. please Adobe take a look at www.uservoice.com already Autodesk started to move there with 3ds Max.

Flash 8 audio stream

I have designed a small media player reading a continuous
audio/video stream (broadcast).
Using "test movie" on flash 8, it works very well.
Uploading the swf file to the server and having included the
<embedded> code, the player does not play, although the
buttons, display, texts and so on work. What have I forgotten?
The site is www.tinmandownloads.com, and the stream is
http://212.72.165.26:9386.
Any idea?

I tried the suggestion of setting the buffer time for the
netstream object, and that didn't solve it. After a lot of digging
and tweaking of settings, it appears that it is a problem with the
hardware in relation to Flash.
The sound card is the SoundMax Integrated Audio (included in
most Dells). What makes it tricky is that it is a particular
revision of the card. When looking at the device details (Device
Manger->Sound, video and game controllers->SoundMAX
Integrated Digital Audio->Details), the device version is
VEN_8086 DEV_24D5 SUBSYS_017A1028. The drivers are the exact same
as a similar piece of hardware that has the device version VEN_8086
DEV_24D5 SUBSYS_01511028. The only difference between the two is
017A vs 0151.
The problem that exhibitted itself is a slowdown of the
recording stream by a factor of 6. So a 5 second clip becomes 30
seconds. Interestingly, with Flash 7, if the buffer is set, it
doesn't have this problem. However, if the buffer isn't set, the
problem arises. In Flash 9, however, the problem always occurs,
regardless of the buffer being set.
Furthermore, in Flash 7, the NetStream.silenceTimeout is
2000, but in Flash 9, it is undefined. I know this is a hardware
related problem, but I'm hoping there is something I can do in the
software to work around this problem.
I also played around with Breeze a little bit. With both
Flash 7 and Flash 9 using my hardware, if I have two instances of
Flash running (two browsers open), if I press the talk button
immediately after enabling the microphone it slows down by a factor
of two. Once I release the talk button and the re-click it, it
works fine. This leads me to believe that Breeze is doing some
microphone calibration or something.
Hope all this information helps, as this is quite a sticky
problem.

Flash animation with stream sound not playing in mac

Dear all,
I have made a 5 min animation with stream sound. Its playing perfectly in PC. But in mac, its not playing. Stream sound starts from frame 60. So mac plays the swf plays till 60 frame, after that it pauses. I tried importing different sound format (wav, aif, mp3) and tried with all sound export setting but the problem remain same; its playing only till 60. When i removed the sound, it played till end. Even with event sound, it plays till end. But with stream sound, the problem. The problem is only in mac; in pc its perfect.
I am using VMware Mac OS x leopard in window xp for testing purpose. I tested it in laptop with mac; but the problem is same. What could be the solution?
Thanks in advance. Waiting for solution.

Dear all, I solved the problem myself. The problem was with the sound driver of mac. After installing sound driver, the problem is gone. Bhushan

Flash player for web and offline

i saw a tutorial series that uses the same player for
online: flash
windows .exe
mac: .app
well the player looks the same once launched
is this just a matter of creating the player in flash and then exporting to each of the 3 ? (flash, exe, app) ??

can you also export air player

SetSoftKeys is not working in Flash lite 2.0 and up!!

Guys,
I followed the Adobe tutorial hosted at "http://livedocs.adobe.com/flashlite/2/main/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/html/wwhelp.htm?context=L iveDocs_Parts&file=00000050.html#163054" but still nothing works in the emulator. Please help.

There is no way to know what will change in the future. This
is the solution that works now. It will probably remain in place
for the reasonable future.

Flash player 11.3.31.230 on google chrome: audio stream issues

Hi,
Just to let you know that i get an audio stream bug on google chrome with the latests 11.3.31.230 realease.
the received streamed audio in visio chat (i use Adobe LCCS to stream and receive it) is messy (echos etc).
When i disable this latests release, it works fine again.
with 11,3,300,271 realease
Funny thing is that:
if i receive the audio stream and get the bug on my website.
and if at the same time i open a new tab with youtube
the bug is fixed for my website, even if i close the youtube tab after that.
but whenever i try to close and reopen the audio stream again, the bug comes back.
I don't believe its a bug associated to my specific configuraiton, but its for every one.
i get the bug on other computers too.
Thanks
Regards,

I noticed the past two days that Solitaire Blitz game on Facebook and Jewel Quest game on Yahoo are flying now. I installed 11.4 a few days ago and still have protected mode disabled, but I didn't notice this change until Tuesday evening. The only thing different about my computer Tuesday is that I had disabled Java. (I received an email tip from Kim Komando saying Java has security flaws and should be disabled until they can be patched.) Could there be a conflict between Flash and Java, with Java causing Flash to be slightly slower? This isn't a real "problem" for me, as I thought both games were working fine prior to disabling Java; but I did notice they were even faster the last couple of days.
