Maintaining proportions with full screen flash

hi, I have a flash site set up that allows a mc in the
background containing various images to always take up the full
browser window while the foreground elements remain unchanged. What
I would like to do is keep the background images from distorting
when the window is resized...a good example of this is on
redtettemer.com - it maintains proportions and just cuts off at the
bottom or side if it would cause any distortion.
this is the current code I have on frame 1:
Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";
Stage.align = "TL";
var stageListener:Object = new Object ();
stageListener.onResize = positionContent;
Stage.addListener(stageListener);
function positionContent():Void {
portfolio_bg._width = Stage.width;
portfolio_bg._height = Stage.height;
positionContent();
can anyone help with this?
thanks

No, like cberube said, the graphics aren't corrupt/garbled at all.
The frame rate of the flash video when full screened is the problem here. It has to be something related to OSX and the Adobe Flash player built into the browser. I tried this in both Safari and Firefox to isolate the browser as a variable in the problem.
No matter the quality of the flash vid (it could be an HD TV show from hulu, or it could be some crappy youtube vid) the frame rate will drop massively if you select full screen, but return to normal "smooth" rate when you exit full screen. The only way to fix this is to uncheck "Enable Hardware acceleration" by right clicking on the flash video and entering the flash player settings within the browser.
This is only a work-around as unchecking hardware acceleration means your CPU must now work harder to render the graphics since it seems the OSX on-board graphics unit isn't capable of handling it. Normally, if this happened, OSX would activate the NVIDIA gpu which should be more than capable of rendering a full screen flash video without breaking a sweat. This doesn't seem to be occurring though.
Hopefully this is a clearer description of the problem.

Problem with full screen flash background

I want to use a shockwave swf animation as a full screen
background for a captivate presentation.
If I use, 'rest of movie' to display this swf background,
then any objects I try to put on top get covered over by the
animation... ie. I can't see them.
If I add the swf to each slide seperately ('rest of slide' or
any other setting), I can then see my other objects, but the
presentation gets huge - it sees the same swf multiple times (once
for each slide), even if I copy and paste. I am referring to the
size of the final generated swf file, btw.
I'm using v.1.01.
Thanks in advance..

Every time I think I've heard it all with regard to new
problems and new ways to create them, I see something like your
post, roke2468.
I am not being even a little bit critical; in fact, I admire
your creativity in even thinking of using animation as your
background!!
But the fact of the matter is, I don't believe there is any
way around the problem you are describing. Animation files are
generally large and when added to Captivate, it takes no time at
all to make the Captivate files humongous. Captivate just isn't
currently designed to be used this way - without exactly the
problems you are seeing. Sorry.
Welcome aboard the Community, and if we can figure out a way
to do what you are attempting (without blowing file-sizes and
download times into the stratosphere), we'll sure share it (neat
idea).

Does anybody have any idea why this may be happening, and how
I can solve the issue?
Many Thanks

No harm here. Apple does not frequent this site, but only maintains it for user to user communication, so even a left handed comment directed at Apple gets misconstrued as directed at users. I too would like to see things like simple rotation imbedded within the Photo app, but will not hold my breath waiting for it.
There are certainly more things right with iPad than wrong, so get busy enjoying, and check updates every now and then

Help:How to publish a Flash with full screen HTML

Please, guys, be kind enough to teach me how to publish a
Flash with full screen size in HTML. I have tried to search the
board, but so far no luck.
Originally, I want my .SWF to keep changing its background.
The solution I got was placing colored stage-sized rectangles on
the bottom layer. Then I don't want the viewers to see the HTML
area where I cannot seem to control smooth color changes.
So, after I construct a Flash file with backdrop-color
changing by the method I mentioned above, how do I publish it with
full screen mode in HTML, as you can see
here? Help!
Thanks in advance, guys.

Here's an AS2 and a AS3 version I got from David Stiller
2 small details you have to add 1 in publish settings set Dimensions to percent 100 100
and in the html set <style>body {margin: 0; padding: 0}</style>
// AS2
import flash.display.BitmapData;
Stage.align = "TL";
Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";
var tile:BitmapData = BitmapData.loadBitmap("tile");
function fillBG():Void {
beginBitmapFill(tile);
moveTo(0, 0);
lineTo(Stage.width, 0);
lineTo(Stage.width, Stage.height);
lineTo(0, Stage.height);
lineTo(0, 0);
endFill();
fillBG();
var listener:Object = new Object();
listener.onResize = fillBG;
Stage.addListener(listener);
// AS3
stage.align = StageAlign.TOP_LEFT;
stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
var bmp:Tile = new Tile(50, 50);
var tile:BitmapData = new BitmapData(50, 50);
tile.draw(bmp);
function fillBG(evt:Event = null):void {
graphics.beginBitmapFill(tile);
graphics.moveTo(0, 0);
graphics.lineTo(stage.stageWidth, 0);
graphics.lineTo(stage.stageWidth, stage.stageHeight);
graphics.lineTo(0, stage.stageHeight);
graphics.lineTo(0, 0);
graphics.endFill();
fillBG();
stage.addEventListener(Event.RESIZE, fillBG);

Website with Full Screen Background Images

I'm trying to create a website with full screen background images (or possibly, a video) that will crop to the browser window. It's also important that the image be center-justified. The Die Antwoord site does pretty much what I'm trying to accomplish. I'd also like to know how they can use such high resolution images. If I try to use a high res image, the file size is enormous. Another site that uses similar technology only with a video is the TV on the Radio site.
I am fairly new to Flash so please forgive me if this is a rudimentary question. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Hi Bob,
Thanks for your reply.
What I'm concerned about is the crispness of my full-page images. Am I right in assuming with a PDF folio, static images won't be as crisp? Is there a way to maintain its sharpness?

Full screen Flash video is extremely slow

I have a 2010 27" iMac with an ATI Radeon HD 4670 graphics card. Full screen Flash video (e.g., Hulu) is extremely slow and choppy on it (4-5 frames per second). Full screen Quicktime or HTML5 video is fine. On my previous iMac (2008, 24", NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GS), full screen Flash video is smooth as silk. I realize my current video card is low- to mid-range, but should that really matter? I'm not sure if this is a video card issue, or something else. Here's a list of other things I've tried:
Other web browsers
Uninstalled and reinstalled the current version Flash
Uninstalled and reinstalled an older version of Flash
Installed Shockwave
Disabled hardware acceleration
Reinstalled Mac OS X Snow Leopard
As much as Apple wants to distance itself from Flash, I would be really shocked if a modern iMac was incapable of doing what a 3-year old iMac could do effortlessly. Anyone else have any ideas, or do I just need to upgrade my video card?

in youtube one can choose various level of resolutions
like hd or sd and the hd's are in various levels of high resolutions
if performance is the issue the first place I would look would be the resolution of
the set stream

Need help with full screen slideshow image quality

I am looking to display some images with full screen slideshow. The images I add are very large, over 5000 wide. When I publish the site some images retain their quality while others lose it and look like crap. Why would this be and how can I fix it. I tried to resize them to the 2560x1707 that muse does, and then add them. This doesn't change the end result of poor quality.

Go to Assets Panel and locate the image you want to use at original size. Right click the image and chose 'Import Larger Size'.
See if that helps retain quality for that image, since Muse does not resize/interpolate that image for you.
Cheers,
Vikas

www.all-aboutsp.com.
and my second question, how do i embed a video from another
website but yet use my own Player like www.southparkzone.com ?
thanks in advance

Lion Screen Sharing with Full Screen apps on Remote Lion

Has anyone figured out how to EASILY work with multiple desktops and full screen apps on the remote mac when Screen Sharing with one Lion mac from another? All of the standard methods of switching between desktops and full screen apps (swipe, cmd + <arrow>, etc) all take place on the the local Mac, and not the remote one.
The only real effective methods I have found so far are using the dock (not elegant with full screen apps), and removing an app from full screen. Either way, these methods are clumsy and do not compliment the new features that Lion provides.

You're not going to believe this.
Problem was on my buddy's end. The slash key "/" was stuck down on her keyboard.
Sometimes the solution is so far out of normal troubleshooting, you're luck if you ever find it...
Nothing to see here, move along...
