Keynote score board with feeds?

Hey everyone,
im working on a project where im going to project a keynote presentation that includes a few things to make a score board. Basicly i want it to have live feed from my webcam, a timer that counts down and 2 small boxes to keep the score for that team.
Now i have finaly managed to get live feed from my camera using quartz composer. Now for the count down i have no idea, but that is the least of my problems. I need to be able to upadate a table with the scors for each team without taking the presentation down. So i was thinking, if i make an rss feed of an exel table, (Whitch i can do no problem) i could rss feed it into the keynot... but i tryed quarts composer and it doesnt work, any ideas on how i can get it to work, or how i can do it another way?
What about the countdown timmer? any ideas for that? (maybe just a video counting down, that may be ok)
But yeah the score is what is realy buzzing me...
Please help
Thanks

That is AS2 code so you should repost your problem in the AS1/2 forum if you continue to have a problem.  You should try making the other score work again and show the code you are using that is not working.
Since you have little familiarity with coding, you will do best to not approach coding the way you are.  Putting code "on()" objects is not a good practice.  You should place all the code in the timeline and assign instance names to objects to enable the timeline code to target the objects.
If you have a button in place merely to support having the code for keyboard interaction processing, then you should do away with that and just have code assigned to deal with the keyboard specifically.  Here's some code that might get you started... if you cannot get it working for you, then please repost your problem in the correct forum.  The code goes in the timeline. Instead of the traces, you would be changing the score values...
var keyListener:Object = new Object();
Key.addListener(keyListener);
keyListener.onKeyDown = function(){
   if(Key.getCode() == 38) trace("up");
   if(Key.getCode() == 40) trace("down");
   if(Key.getCode() == 37) trace("left");
   if(Key.getCode() == 39) trace("right");

  • Flash Game High Scores Board

    Hello everyone,
    I know this is a subject that gets covered a lot as i have found a ton of tutorials that show a million dfferent ways to create a high scores board on a flash game.  So i decided to go out on a limb and pick a tutorial out to try.  Well I have now tried 3 different ones and have yet to get a working high scores board with my game.
    http://www.flashkit.com/tutorials/Games/How_to_c-Nick_Kuh-771/index.php
    That is the link to the most recent attempts to creat my high scores board.  When i finished everything the way the tutorial said it seemed like everything would work and then it just didnt.  After spending oh about 40 plus hours trying to make a high scores board i am getting very frustrated.  My game is scripted in AS2 and i have access to mysql and can set up unlimited databases.
    Can anyone please help me by sending an easy to follow tutorial that will work with AS2?  I would just like any kind of help right now as I feel ALL of my valid ideas have been ehausted.  Thanks in advance to anyone that can help!

    Okay not a problem.
    This is my code on the very first frame of the game that initializes the the highscores.php script
    command = "init";
    _root.loadVariables("highscores.php?"+int(Math.random()*100000), "POST");
    This is the code that I have on a submit button, next to the input text box where the user enters their name for the scoreboard.
    on (release) {
    if(name ne ""){
    command = "update";
    _root.loadVariables("highscores.php?"+int(Math.random()*100000), "POST");
    gotoAndStop ("highScores");
    In every place the code says _root. I have also tried this. and neither of them work.  I have also tried a million other things.  So far the game plays through, goes to the game over screen where it asks for a user name and tells them their score.  Then once they press submit the game goes to the highScores screen but the name and score are not there.  The high scores screen cosists of 2 dynamic text fields one named "players" and one named "scores".  I hope this helps because I spent another 5 or so hours after my initial posts trying more tutorials with still no luck.  (the problem i am having is that i am new to flash, however not to PHP)

  • Score board for a game show

    Hi all, Ok here goes.
    I need to create a score board for a game show at work for staff.  The score board must keep score on the left and right parts of the screen. score must start as default on 0.  Then every time I press for example the left arrow key the left score must increase by the value of 1 and when I press the right arrow key the left score must decrease by 1.
    Same goes for the right score only with differant keys example up and down keys.  This sounds very simple and I managed to get it to work when I tested with only 1 score, but failed when adding the second score to the picture.
    Please help me out on this as I don't know how to program in flash and I'm not getting any replies from other forums.

    That is AS2 code so you should repost your problem in the AS1/2 forum if you continue to have a problem.  You should try making the other score work again and show the code you are using that is not working.

  • How do I use AT-A2150 board with LV 5.1 ?

    Hi,
    I'm trying to find a way of using my old AT-A2150 board with labview 5.1.
    I followed some posting tips from NI knowledgeBase (1JACI8U3 and 1JO8TB2O
    ) and installed NI-DAQ 4.9.
    The only problem is that now I'm getting broken arrows on my DAQ VIs. My

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Use a Mini DisplayPort adapter for that monitor type.

  • Can we replace an old serial board with a new one found available on your site?

    So.. we are using Lookout 5.0 to operate a plant, and we have a PCI SERIAL RS 232/485 ISOLATED 2 PORTS board, with the code 185726C-02 printed on that board, which is used to comunicate with some solenoids modules. I search your site for a replacement for that board, and I found the PCI-8433/2 board which seems to be compatible. Question: is it ok to use this board instead the old one with Lookout 5 if we update the NI SERIAL drivers from your site?
    Thanks in advance ..

    We want to use two 1409 boards with two sony xc55 cameras to acquire two images simutaneously. From the attached files, you will find what I have done and the problems. I just followed the example program from you. But it doesn't work well. Could you help me? thank you very much.

    Kobel,
    Both cameras are being triggered at the same time, and both boards are aquiering the image at the same time. The problem you are seeing is related to copying the correct image.
    The IMAQ driver is not currently multithreaded, therefore your second copy opperation can not execute until your first one is done. The trouble is that you have the immediate terminal set to false which forces the copy to wait for the next available image before returning.
    Since the second copy does not execute until the first one is complete, it will consider the frame that just passed as old and wait for the next available frame.
    The quick solution is to change the immediate terminal to true on both copies. The best solution depends on your entie application. You may want to re
    ad this application note on Ring Aquisitions for ideas.

  • Score board

    Hello gurus,
    what is score board and how do we create it?
    Priya

    Scoreboard is the generic phrase; scorecard is the technical phrase.
    This is "THE" word in performance measurment / evaluation.
    Organizations will plan for 3-5 years and decide where it wants to be in terms of sales, profit, customer sartisfaction, etc. They give a target values for such parameters. As the time proigresses, the actuals will be measured aganist the standards and the resut will be displayed in the scorecard in the form of scores.

  • Where can I find commands for wireless key board with my Ipad?

    how do I find a command list for using my apple wireless key board with my Ipad?

    you will have to power off the wireless keyboard...or go into your settings and turn off the bluetooth when you aren't using it.
    the default for hte ipad is to only have one keyboard at a time. And if your ipad senses a blue tooth attached, your onscreen one will not be visible.

  • MSI working on a fix for using SB chips on p67/z86 boards with new IB BIOS?

    I've got an MSI Z68A-GD80 B3, I updated to the version 20.0 BIOS which supports IB chips, but I'm currently running an i7 2600K. My machine seems to be stable with the new BIOS (better than previous BIOS versions actually), but for whatever reason when I went to the v20.0 BIOS I lost all ability to overclock. The only option which shows up in any BIOS menus is AUTO. No multiplier adjustment for the CPU, no V adjustments for anything, no RAM adjustments, etc...in fact the closest I can come is by adjust whether the RAM is running XMP profile or not. Everything else appears normal, but for all intensive purposes I've given myself an H variant board with no OC options by updating the BIOS.
    So, my question is, since every other MB manufacturer seems to have figured out how to support both IB and SB chips on z68 systems why hasn't MSI? Is this support forthcoming or do I need to invest in a new MB or a new CPU just to be able to OC again?

    No bashing intended, just tellling it like it is. Almost everyday, if not everyday, there are threads of users bricking boards flashing Ivy UEFI/BIOS's when an Ivy is never to be installed. Most of these are user error not reading the SOP, or not having a bootable USB stick, or whatever. Most flashing isn't even necessary unless a specific function or feature requires it. Too many are 'flash' happy for no reason at all.  MSI's goal 'may' be to develop and release a 'universal' UEFI/BIOS that works decent for Sandy or an Ivy. These 'compromises' often are not ideal. Try the last official revision xmad mentioned, or try the Beta for the (G3) I linked.

    This 'question' itself is somewhat bordering on 'bashing', so I think it has been satisfactorily answered. Further comments about it are just going to head towards an argument. You have the link to MSI Technical and the (G3) Beta thread.
