I’m working on a way to proxy stream data from Flash Media Server to client applications on separate domains. There should be a simple mechanism in place to take care of such security restrictions, but since there is not, my plan is to create a proxy SWF that lives on the same domain as FMS …
I’ve completed a new short film called “Window View” which can be viewed at The Memoryspiral. [IMAGE MISSING] “A scene from within a house- looking out at events in the backyard.” I’m very happy with both the concept and the final realization. There were some technical considerations I was able to get around with the …
Twitter is a really strange service. When I first caught wind of this, my immediate reaction was; do we really need to be pouring more ephemeral nonsense into an internet already smothering with useless information? I have to say that after using Twitter myself for the past few weeks, and playing around with the ActionScript …
I fist tried Eclipse as a web development IDE a little over one year ago. At the time, I had mostly just stuck with Dreamweaver for all of my general web/PHP/ColdFusion needs. I had heard that the new version of Flex Builder was being built on Eclipse and figured to give it a shot. I …
Same issues as with BitmapData.draw() and RTMP… SecurityError: Error #2135: Security sandbox violation: SoundMixer.computeSpectrum: RTMP content cannot be accessed using this API. I hate to sound like a broken record… and I know there are probably some really good reasons for this- but there should be a way around this RTMP security restriction. Developers want …

Yesterday, I became so absolutely fed-up with the hosting provider I’ve had since 2002, PowWeb, that I decided to pack up and switch over to BlueHost. After a year of lousy customer service and even worse actual hosting services, it was time to call it quits. I still have some client sites with them, and …
This website will be transferring hosts in a matter of minutes. Things may be disruptive until the DNS servers are all synced up. Sorry!
Can anyone recommend a nice, stable, FAST webhost? My patience with this current host is wearing thin… plagued by mySQL slowness.
So, to delay my unavoidable participation in the initial “Flex/AIR/Flash” waterfall effect, I’ve waited till now to post anything about the massive new beta releases that have been available since last evening. Flex Builder 3: LOVE the new CSS design view. LOVE IT! I’m sure there are plenty more features of direct interest as well, …

Just had a chance to test the Flash Media Encoder and was pretty impressed. We’ve been using Flash Media Server for our VOD materials but have gone to QuickTime for live events. The main problem with FMS with a live stream is that it will only broadcast using the Spark codec and not VP6. FME …
I’ve taken some time today to experiment with Twitter using the ActionScript 3.0 API that is available. It’s a very simple class library and, as such, pretty easy to build a widget around. One thing that has bothered me a bit is the seemingly lengthy amount of time the services take to update the API …
