Seb Lee-DelisleAs cool as bell-bottom pants according to Keith Peters! Which is pretty damn cool. And it can be really fiddly setting up the FLARToolkit, so I’ve finally released some of my AR code. Just in time for it to go out of fashion. 🙂 It uses the Alchemy branch of the FLARToolkit and includes everything […]
On Tuesday night I did a last minute ad hoc presentation to FlashBrighton to share the experiments I’ve done with the microphone capabilities of FlashPlayer 10.1. You should be able to see the recording at live.flashbrighton.org (if it’s not there, bear with us while we try to get it working). Click “media” to see the […]
Original Photo : PhotoCapy I’ve been playing with the Flash microphone input to record and playback multiple tracks. I thought it’d be really easy, but sadly it’s been really really tricky. The main problem is to do with knowing exactly when data from the microphone was recorded, particularly relative to when some audio was played! […]
I’ve just written a post for Influxis explaining how we used their TVStation app, to broadcast Branden Hall’s remote Hype presentation last week. Streaming a remote presentation with TVStation
(previously titled : Flash Player bug? for each..in loops) [UPDATE] Kudos and much thanks to Tim Knip who pointed out that it was in fact my mistake – there’s a stray semi-colon at the end of the line : for each(byteArray in soundSources); Which is of course ending the loop there and just running the […]
… is measured in samples. Not bytes or mils. So if you want to know how it relates to the ByteArray you’re working with, you need to multiply it by 4 (as each floating point sample requires 4 bytes). And if you want to convert it to mils, you need to divide by 44.1, the […]
… is measured in milliseconds. Why do I mention this? Because it seems to have been entirely omitted from the ActionScript live docs and it took me a while to figure it out. Maybe this post will save someone some time in the future. 🙂 [UPDATE] I just noticed that this is actually specified in […]
Yesterday I met Renaun Erickson from Adobe, who told me that he took my basic 3D engine, compiled it with the Flash CS5 beta into an iPhone app, and demoed it the very next day at the 360 Flex conference at Adobe! It gave me a few ideas about how to optimise it so perhaps […]
I just got back from a crazy fleeting visit to Amsterdam for FITC, and now the dust is settling, I wanted to talk about some cool new features in FlashPlayer 10.1, especially now that FlashPlayer 10.1 Beta 3 has just been released on Adobe Labs! RTMFP – Peer-to-peer networking Yes it’s quite catchy name I […]
This has been a massive problem to me lately, particularly with distributing files on my training courses. For some reason, the swf files that I give my attendees don’t open with the stand alone FlashPlayer, instead they often default to Flash CS4 etc. I know the usual way to do this is by right clicking […]
