SWF's and Flash Lite

Hi there,
I have a question in regards to development......The swf's
that are produced, do they have to be run in the browser
environment of the mobile or can they be run just stand-alone...In
other words, the user uploads the swf into their mobile handset,
and just runs it, not in the browser environment, like an .exe
file? Also, it would be very nice if Adobe in the near future,
could somehow install all those nice effects from Adobe After
Effects to work with Flash, that would be something.......Take care
and God Bless...

Hi there Punchkickinteractive,
Thanks for the quick response, I have Flash MX, and it's
been a while since I haven't updated, but when I saw Adove Device
Central and that's included in Flash CS3, then things began to look
brighter for flash. I can still upgrade, right? since I have Flash
MX, $200.00 for the upgrade?
So then the user doesn't have to be in the net(mobile) in
order to view the swf, right? Cause, we all know that folks have to
pay to have access to the internet via their mobile....This is far
better than making a .mobi site, if you ask me...Although,
currently I'm doing one with php and mysql more like a
directory....And Flash offers me the opportunity to do it without
the user having to have access to the internet.........
Yes, you have a good point in regards to AE, I did downloaded
AE a while back, and was completely turned off in regards to the
interface, it's so barbaric, if you ask me. I mean the interface of
Flash is so easy to understand, the timeline, ect......but with AE,
my God............:) Though, it has some awesome effects, but the
price isn't awesome though.....:)
Well, I thank you for the quick response and God Bless
You.....:)

Difference between FP7 and Flash Lite

can anybody tell me what the difference is between FP7 and
Flash Lite? I only want to view content not create it. Can Flash
Lite play embedded media players? (i had FP7 installed on my iPAQ
but i cannot view any of the embedded media players on the BBC News
website. Do i need Flash Lite instead of FP7, or as well as??)
thaks

Hi,
At a time in the past we provided FP7 for PPC devices and
some consumer electronics like the Wii because this was easier to
integrate than Flash.. or met the customers requirements better.
For the past year we have been transitioning OEM customers to
Flash Lite and this is our goal ongoing.
We have launched a new product called Flash Lite
Distributable Player to address the needs of the Windows Mobile
developer community. To be clear PPC is not supported for web
browsing unless your web browser ships with Flash Lite support.

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.
Sandy.

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
site where you
can get info on the format (or at least, there was for flash
lite 1.x)

Captivate and Flash lite 2.1 for Mobile

Hi, I need to visualize a SWF file in my Intermec CN3 HH, but
when I try to do that, visualization isn't good, i've installed
Adobe flash lite 2.1 and MFlashPlayer 7 to visualize my SWF, but
doesn't work, do I still need another program?, or what can I do?,
I exported from Captivate 3 that SWF file compatible with Flash 7,
do i need to make it compatible with flash lite 2.1, do i need to
export to Flash CS3, and then export from there to flash lite 2.1?,
thanks,

There are several things in Captivate 2 that are not viewable
in Flash Lite.
The above article should help you create a project file that
can be viewed
on your mobile devices.

Where are the Push To Talk and Flash Lite applicat...

I can not find the Push To Talk and the Flash Lite in N96,
It does not exist in any folders, even at this folder: Tools --> Connectivity
All others (e.g. Mobile-TV, Bluetooth, WLAN, SIP, etc...) are working properly
What should I do to get the Push To Talk?
Below is my N96 firmware info:
=======================
Software Version:12.043
Language set: 001
Type: RM-247
Model: Nokia N96
Thanks!

The phone has Flash Lite, but it does not have its own icon. Open Flash Lite .swf files with the File Manager, or use them on/from web pages with the browser.
I don't know if it has PTT.

Problem with Nokia 5200 and Flash Lite themes...

My problem is pretty simple to ask, but maybe not to easy to answer...
I downloaded many Flash Lite themes for my Nokia 5200, and my problem is that the animated icons for the grid (that are SWF files) don't show/animate.
Is it supposed to be like that?
The firmware is v5.53

Oh, I forgot this...
In Carbide.ui, the icons DO animate as they should.

Best Practices: Flash Player 10.1 and Flash Lite 4

I've found the documentation for Flash Lite 4. It appears to support most everything you'd want to do in AS3, aside from some desktop-specific APIs like Clipboard, File, ContextualMenu, etc..
I've also noticed that there's a Flash Lite 4 compile target in Flash CS5. Would it be considered a best-practice to target Flash Lite 4 instead of Flash Player 10 for web content? (Obviously, desktoppy web apps would still need to be compiled for 10).

TJ,
Thanks for your great feedback and your kind words. I'll certainly be making sure the team sees your comments, though I can't say we'll have 10.1 in place for you by Monday.
Thanks
-D

Soap and Flash Lite 3

I would like to know if soap is going to be supported by
flash lite 3, and if so, could anyone provide me any sample of code
of a web service request or a reference to the api that could help
me in this task.
thanks beforehand

hi,
Could you find an answer or a solution? I have been looking for the same.

SWF file and flash player

Quite a few people said that they cannot see my movie clip
swf file on their browser even I asked them to go to Flash player
download center and install the latest flash player.
I made this file with Flash 8.
I have read a little bit something about the stand alone
player which call projector.
Can anybody tell me why people cannot see my file even they
installed the flash player 9 and also how can I study about stand
alone something which I have no idea at all?
My website is www. theartoftaichi.co.uk. The swf file is the
black and white ball in the center of the first page .

Thank you very much for your message.
But 50% of viewer can open it but others cannot see it even
they downloaded the Flash player 9.
I wonder if I am asking them to download the wrong Flash
player.

SWF Frames and Flash Player Frames

Hi,
Could I have the definition about these concepts?
What is the relationship between them?
In particular, I would know if they are paired each other or not during execution.
Thanks in advance.
Cheers.

I'll try to explain what i need to understand.
Could you underscore when the Flash Player Frames (understood as the time period between two consecutive enterFrame events) take place?
Suppose an application with two frames (FR1 and FR2) and a specific frame rate
The Flash Player streams in the SWF:
1 Flash Player starts to load FR1
2 FR1 is completely loaded
3 FR1 calls stop() method
4 Flash Player is waiting to load FR2
5 FR2 is completely loaded
6 FR2 calls stop() method
To summarize: Can Flash Player Frames can be took place many times per SWF Frame?
Thank you again

SharedObject and Flash Lite 2 --has anybody made it work?

[URL]http://www.mediafire.com/?uytnzzyn4md[/URL]
I made this little sample file to get a handle on SharedObjects. Got it functioning just fine in Flash Player 10. (AS 2.0)
But I tried to make it work in the emulator, and couldn't get any phone that supports SharedObjects to read the data back into Flash once it's written out.
I tried Nokia 6290,6600,7210, and others that have a device profile that shows support for the shared object.
But none of them read data back off the disk.
Has anybody been able to make the shared object work in the emulator?
:<)McFrisco

Yeah, it does work, both in emulator and mobile device. You should keep following things in mind while working with SharedObject in FL:
1. Use a listener object event handler when reading the SO
2. Make use of getSize() method to determine whethet the data exists in SO or not
3. Reading/Writing to SO is slow on mobile devices so, you might want to give it some time by giving 1-2 frames interval
4. Store the returned value of flush() method; it returns 'true' if data was successfully written, 'false' if not written and 'pending' if it is taking time
5. Most important:
- You CANNOT share SharedObject data between SWFs even if you have given same SO name. One SWF can access it's own SO, if you create a copy of the same SWF then also it would not be able to pick the same SO.
- The SO changes everytime when you publish and deploy the app on a device.
There is a very good article on DevNet about FL SO: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/devices/articles/persistent_data.html

Flex 2 and Flash Lite 2

Been looking all over and can't find a solid answer. I have a
Flex 2 application, how do I make it usable on my phone, PDA, or
Blackberry, etc.. Any handheld mobile devices?? Or is it
possible??

Hi,
Unfortunately this doesn't have anything to do with the FlexUnit code itself. These are bugs inside of the Flash Builder plugin. You may want to post on their forum as well to try to get some support.
The only advice I can offer, is that things seem to work much better if I consistently use the Execute FlexUnit Tests, which can be found under the run button. They work much less well if I right click and tell it to execute tests.

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?

Does Flash lite support live stream?

I use Flash CS4 and AS3 to build a flash client side live stream swf.
It can publish and play live video and encode by flash.
Can Flash lite support it?
If so, can mobile browser play flash swf?

Yes flash lite 3.0 / 3.1 support rtmp streaming. you can check your device for more info on rtmp support. Here s a project about what you want:

streaming from camera to flash lite device with rtmp.

Flash Lite 2.1 on OS X???

Hi Macromedia guys-
The 2.1 update with emulator update only exists for Windows?
Please help me understand how to best access Flash Lite 2.1
on OS X and
it looks like my only option right now is to use the 2.1
player on a
test unit (cell phone). Is that correct?
Is it possible to get the documentation at least?
Thanks for a great product, looking forward to FL 3 and
seeing some of
the kinks ironed out. FL and S60 seems like it holds
explosive
potential...
Best,
Chris Rawley

Hi hayden,
Thanks for this information.
If i want to use a swf which is builled on Flash Lite 2.1 on
my SE hendset (K790i), so their is no why to do so!
If i want to use or test the same swf (builled on Flash Lite
2.1)on mobile, so i have to buy a nokia phone?
If it is right then that means SE is not competabel for Flash
Lite 2.1, and
THIS IS THE LIMITATION OF SE PHONE'S.
