Samsung - Flash Air and Flash Player will no longer be supported from February 4, 2014 ?

What are peoples thoughts on this?
We have been alerted that Adobe will no longer continue to support Flash on Samsung Smart TVs and BluRay players. As a result, Flash engines will not be supported in 2015 Samsung products. Going forward, Flash-related features will be excluded from SDKs released. Although Flash engines will remain to be equipped on existing Samsung products, including 2014 models, there will be no technical support from either Samsung or Adobe. Accordingly, any applications developed with Flash Air or Flash Player will no longer be acceptable. Samsung recommends using either HTML 5 or Javascript based applications if the application in question is Flash-based. Beginning on February 4, 2014, any Flash-based application, including any updated versions of such will not be acceptable for submission.

Not being able to deploy Adobe Air in Samsung devices is a huuuuuge kick in the teeth suley?

I'm not an Adobe or Samsung expert, but it seems to me that...
on Samsung Smart TVs and BluRay players
..is not the same as (all) "Samsung Devices".

Samsung SE-506BB Blu-Ray Player/Writer no longer working after latest OS X update

Since downloading the latest OS X update ("Command Line Developer Tools for OS X Mavericks") that rolled out today, I've discovered that my external Samsung SE-506BB Blu-Ray player will no longer read any discs and that ejecting and restarting the device and updating the device firmware does nothing to solve the problem.
This exact issue has been reported numerous times since January on these forums
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5829322 (1/26)
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5836103 (1/27)
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5895950 (2/12)
and in each instance deduced the problem to be the direct result of some software glitch in the most recent Mavericks update.
Is anyone else experiencing this issue currently and/or managed to fix it on their end? Moreover, admins, what if anything is Apple doing to correct this problem given that it's clearly a persistent issue? Please comment below if you happen to know anything so we can all get to the bottom of this mystery.

I just noticed this today with my player as well, which had otherwise been working perfectly since first purchasing it a couple of months ago.
The only source to my immediate problem that I can think of is the "Command Line Developer Tools for OS X Mavericks" update that rolled out today, which I installed shortly before attempting to boot up my drive -- the only thing I can ascertain is that this has to be an ongoing software update issue with Apple that affects some/all of the players with each problematic update round, since others have reported experiencing similar problems from as far back as January.
Were you able to fix your problem at all?

Adobe Air and Flash: Safe or Unsafe?

Adobe Air and Flash-- I use PoserPro2014, and it makes use of Adobe Air to run the Library. I'm getting requests to update the Air component. The tutorials use Flash. I get messages that the Flash "is out of date" and can't watch the tutorials. I
I'm running 10.9.4. My concern is about how Air and Flash may cause problems for my computer. Are the latest versions of Air and Flash safe to upgrade to?

Flash and Java are the two top vectors for malware on any computer. It is imperative that you keep Flash updated to the latest version at all times. As for your concern about problems by updating Air or Flash the prudent thing to do is to create a bootable clone of your working system using a well known cloning app such as Super Duper. Create the bootable clone on a freshly formatted, external hard drive, then boot from that clone, update Flash and Air on that clone to the latest version, then test to see if you have problems with your PoserPro software. If all is well then restart from your normal boot drive and update.
I note that PoserPro is a product of Smith Micro Software, Inc. This company has a very bad reputation regarding OS X compatibility, timely updates, and responses to customer service issues.

Showcase cross platform air and flash game

Just wanted to show off a game I (& teammates at gogogic) have been working on for a while and is finally out on both ipad and web on shared codepage in one shard persistant world.
It uses adobe Air and flash (although no-stage 3d), (current ipad version built on Air 3.7 with Flex.
Scout was an absolute life saver in squesing more perfomance out of the ipad (and as a side effect web as well)

Testing the water on possible Flash Professional and Flash Builder integration

Hey,
I just wanted to throw this out here instead of the bug area to see if I'm off my rocker or I'm on to something.
Basically one of my major pains is that any application design I do, I do it in Flash Pro and I code in FB. Switching back and forth between apps just to press CTRL + ENTER seems like a) a waste of time and b) a waste of system resources.
So what I'm proposing is having FB integrate with FLA files.
When you create your product you have the option to specify a target FLA (or multiple with a build order) so that when you test your project it will actually build your FLAs in order (in the situation that the final SWF requires others) and you're off to the races.
You could also have the currently associated FLA files have a checkbox next to them which could temporally disable them for a build.
If you still need to make design tweaks later on, it's a mater of opening Flash and doing them, but it would be so slick to be able to have FB render the FLA for you in the same app (no more random CTRL+ENTER in FB anymore!)
As far as where it could go. I think it would work the best if it was just a new tab that could be added to the perspective. Would allow drag+drop of FLA files to it, drag+drop ordering and also have the checkboxes to disable any FLAs from the build.
So there we go, does that sound like a decent workflow?
Cheers!

Hi guys,
Have you considered Testing the water on doing your design work in the new Flash Catalyst software http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flashcatalyst/ for your skins instead of Flash CS4.
You would be able to export directly in the new FXG format and integrate it directly in your FB4 coding.
There is a tremendous productivity potential gain there.
I am planning to abandon eventually completely Flash CS4 for both design and coding and substitute it eventually by simultaneously working in FB4(coding) and Flash Catalyst(design) with input symbols directly linked to photoshop and illustrator related files.
For those of you who would like to wet their toes and initiate a quick dive, Lynda.com has already released, on june 11, an 1h40 min course on this subject. Here are the details.
Length: 1 hour
Online Training Library® exclusive!
Flash Catalyst Beta Preview
with: Mordy Golding
Flash Catalyst is a new Adobe application that is currently in beta and available for downloading atlabs.adobe.com, that allows designers to quickly create interactive Flash content and rich internet applications without having to write a single line of code. In Flash Catalyst Beta Preview, Mordy Golding demonstrates a workflow that emphasizes the intuitive nature of the tool, and shows how to achieve results in a short time. Meant to bridge the gap between designers and developers, Flash Catalyst allows the designer to work with familiar applications, such as Photoshop and Illustrator, while automatically generating the necessary code in the background for the developer. Exercise files accompany the course.
Topics include:
Creating interactive content from Photoshop and Illustrator design compositions
Turning ordinary graphics into functional components like buttons and sliders
Using smooth transitions and animation techniques
Moving content between Flash Catalyst and Flash Builder
Declarative Graphics
Flex 4 will make good use of FXG, the new graphics interchange format used with the CS4 graphics applications. Flex 4 and Flash Player 10 can together render FXG graphical elements. These include:
graphics and text primitives
fills, strokes, gradients, and bitmaps
support for filters, masks, alphas, and blend modes.
FXG graphical elements can be used in Flex 4 in a number of ways. FXG elements can be used within an MXML file or component and can also be saved as an .fxg file format. The CS4 tools will typically export an FXG using the FXG 2008 namespace. Because these files are designed to be shared between graphical applications, you’ll find that they have a stricter format to what’s used in Flex; the Flex compiler will only use the FXG-specific tags. Adobe’s new application, Flash Catalyst, will make it easy to create FXG graphics compatible with Flex 4, which you can then use to complete your application’s user interface and appearance.
New effects have been added to Flex 4 that can also be applied to FXG graphical elements. These new effects will work on both new and old components alike. Standalone effects must now be declared within fx:Declarationstags instead of the body of the application. Once again, Flash Catalyst has additional tools to help make using these effects easier.

Trying to understand capabilities of Flash Professional and Flash Builder 4

I recently purchased the CS5 Master Collection and am struggling to understand the uses for Flash Professional and Flash Builder 4. I was inspired by Jay Pavlina's Super Mario Crossover game and wish to make similar applications.
However, I am confused about whether I should be using Flash Professional or Flash Builder 4 or both? I purchased the two books that Jay Pavlina recommended "ActionScript 3.0 Animation Making Things Move!" and "Essential ActionScript 3.0". I've been trying to find resources that will help me understand exactly the purpose of each of these applications.
It appears to me that ActionScript 3.0 is used in both? So which one should I be using? Or both? Or is one more design oriented and the other more development oriented? Can one make flash game like Jay's using just one or the other? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I thought about it a bit more. I think you should take my advice with a grain of salt. I am still standing behind what I said but there are some circumstances that we are not in control of.
If your task is to be the beginning and the end of your code - don't bother with Flash IDE. BUT, if you plan to monetize on your Flash/ActionScript skills, you may not have choice but be familiar with as many environments as possible.
Here is my personal experiense that illustrates this point.
I always prayed to gods, chanted to mandalas and made offerings to spirits to avoid a single thing - not ever deal with custom Flash components. Rightly or wrongly I perceive them as one of the lamest Macromedia creations. I am not talking about SWCs but about this thing that you create with preview and all other crap. Above all, it did not (and still doesn't) make much sense to me from functionality standpoint.
Anyway, as, I guess, a karmic retribution, I was dealt this card. I got involved in a project(s) where I was not told that my main task would be to, you are right, write and reverse engineer Flash custom components. If I did not know Flash IDE I would be totally lost. Custom components are so counter-intuitive that only people without programming background can view them as a convenience. Well, it is a convenience if they are written correctly.
The point is that, if you want to make a career out of it, you should gradually get involved with Flash IDE for now. The truth is that there are tons of agencies out there that do not have resources to hire high level developers and they employ "drag n' drop, cut n' paste" individuals. And this is a real market segment. Even well seasoned development houses have to succumb to this reality and cater to such entities.
It is your choice, of course, but I thought it wouldn't be fare to you to be very fascist about pushing my one-sided views.

Flash will no longer be supported for mobile devices. Is Flash Builder also going to stop building m

Flash, specifcally mobile Flash, was effectively sentenced to death a while back. The first inklings came when Abode put out their own non-Flash media tool “Edge,” and then was confirmed when the company dropped 750 employees and halted all development of mobile versions of Flash, ostensibly forever. It’s not until now, however, that we’re seeing Flash really start to crumble. Android, once open to the protocol, will no longer be supporting Adobe Flash with its newest version, Jelly Bean.
What is the faith of Flash Builder? PC apps only?

Yes Flash is no longer supported in the browser...   I am a Flash Developer and I think this is a good thing. I personally believe that Browsers in general on mobile devices will die a slow death.
Have you tried using them ... no matter what device you choose and how good the browser is, the experience is horrendous. Flash running in the browser on a smartphone is painful.
Browsers will be replaced by apps.
Let me give you an example.
I was upgrading the OS on my daughters iPod Touch Devices and noticed that their Safari Browser was in a folder called "Junk" along with the compassVoice MemosNews Stand, Stocks, etc.
I asked them "Why is your browser in a folder labeled Junk and how do you find anything online? "
Their response
"If I need to look anything up I search in the App Store"
Example: Daughter needs a Dictionary to do her homework... she wont go to www.dictionary.com   she opens up her app store and downloads a dictionary app.
I see the app stores as the new Google.
The beauty of this is that us developers can sadnbox our experience and deliver it in whatever technology we choose to. We no longer care if Browser A supports Flash or which browser supports which HTML tag.
I have a 3 yr old son .. and I am convinced he will one day say to me.   " Dad... I cant believe you used to have to type WWW dot bla bla bla    SLASH bla bla bla SLASH bla bla bla   "

Does the Flash 8 and Flash Lite 2.0 has the same SWF file format?

Flash Lite 2.0 is based on the Flash Player 7 and supports
most of the features in that version of Flash Player, also, the
Flash Lite 2.0 provides serval features not avaliable in Flash
Player 7.
My Question:
I've download the File Format Specification of Macromedia
Flash (SWF) and Flash Video (FLV) Version 8 from Adobe web site,
but, I don't know whether the Flash Lite 2.0 has the same SWF file
format?
If the SWF file format is different, where can I get the file
format for Flash Lite 2.0?
Thanks in advance.

Yes .. it is a little different .. got some extras and has
some
restrictions. But there is a lot that is the same.
There is a separate section on mobile devices (in the Adobe

can get info on the format (or at least, there was for flash

ScrollPane in Flash MX and flash Mx 2004 professional

Summary:
The refreshPane method works differently in Flash MX and
Flash MX 2004 Professional
What went wrong?:
I have used scrollPane component in Flash mx and loaded some
content. I changed the content size i.e. width and height
at runtime and after that called the refreshPane() method to
resize the scrollPane. It works fine with Flash MX
But same I tried with Flash Mx 2004 Professional, but it
doesn't work, since in Flash Mx the refreshPane() method resizes
the content and in flash Mx 2004 Professional the
refreshPane() metod reloads the content.
What should have happened?:
Can there be a method in flash Mx 2004 Professional which
just resizes the scrollPane and not reloads the whole content?
Since if I have to generate a content at runtime and resize
it also at runtime then just by calling the method refreshPane() in
flash Mx 2004 Professional, it loads the content what it was
originally and not the changed one.
Product version: flash Mx, Flash Mx 2004 Professional
Product: Flash
Component: scrollPane
I would like to request you to help me in the same as early
as possible.
Thanks and regards,
Shreeram Shiralkar

Flash MX creates .swf files. Dreamweaver CS4 creates HTML
files, and
has the capability of inserting .swf files in a web page. It
doesn't
matter which version of Flash you use to create your .swf
files; they
can be inserted into a web page in any version of
Dreamweaver.
