I have created a video player using StageVideo and Netstream. It plays video on the iPad but every once in while the app crashes.To debug the behavior, I loop between two videos. After one video stops, the next video begins and it continues doing this until the app crashes. The videos play just fine but again after a few plays, the app crashes. What could be happening?

My users are getting really angry when they lose all their drawings when they need to update their app.  Is there a way of preserving the contents of the documentsDirectory between each update?

I don't have a non-Retina device to test on (yet. Still early in development on my universal first app), so I was wondering if anyone else is considering scaling Retina content down 50% for non-Retina devices? (iPod Touch 3rd Gen, iPhone 3GS & iPad 2) This method would sure be nicer than having to package a bunch of extra images! Testing for appearance in Flash CS 5.5, this scaling method seems to work fine, with the exception of small text; (button labels) doesn't look that great. Anybody have some insight or experience with scaling text on these screens? Will it look better on the actual device or should I import native resolution non-Retina elements for the smaller text?Thanks for helping an iOS noob!

I'm trying to figure out why my mp4 video file is not pausing when my app has lost focus and I have told it to pause?I have created a video player for the iPad using netstream and StageVideo.I have set it up to pause the video when the Event.DEACTIVATE is dispatched.So when a meeting reminder happens from the Calendar app, my app loses focus. The video loses sound but doesn't pause. I cancel out of the meeting reminder window, the video still plays w/o sound and after a few seconds the video pauses. And then the video just goes away, (this last part may be an unreleated issue though).I added a few trace statements in the code and I see that after receiving Event.DEACTIVATE, the video player does call "netstream.pause()"., but the video isn't paused immediately.Another thing I noticed is that the video player is behaving like it is playing streaming videos instead of progressive downloaded videos. In other words, I can skip to any part of the video and the video will play immediately. I

Hi, everyone:It is probably a regular Flex problem, but I will appreciate if anyone can help me with this:Basically, we are building stickyNotes on a Canvas like this:The everything is on a View, each stickynote is a Group component.Inside the Group component, we have an image and a TextArea component. as you can see, the texts are floating over everything. Is there any way to make the texts have the same layer of the image? other alternatives are welcomed as well. Regards,Matthew

Im stuck on a peculiar problem and wonder if anyone out there got any idea of what is going on.I have built a content management system in Adobe AIR for a client.The software generates a folder containing all the data and assets added by the user as well as some other files specified by me.One of these files is a .app file and is added to included files in the .air installer.Problem:- When the software generates the folder including the user specified files and the ones specified by me (including the .app file) the .app file doesn't work any more.- the file size of the .app file changes from 10MB to 12MB when included in the .air installer package.If I just drop the original 10MB version of the file manually into the folder generated by the software, it all runs fine. Something seems to get modified when its added to the installer package.Does anyone have any experience with this, it would be very much appreciated if someone could give me a clue.If you are in London I will buy you a be

Hi there,The 'parameters' property was added to the Flash Player 10.2 and AIR 2.6 runtimes (reference: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/flash/system/LoaderContext.html#parameters) However, any attempt to set the parameters property has been throwing a ReferenceError (ReferenceError: Error #1056: Cannot create property parameters on flash.system.LoaderContext) in Flash CS5.5 with the FLA set to AIR 2.6. If I sent the FLA to 10.2, it does not throw the ReferenceError.This is a bug that must have cropped up in the last four months, as I just compiled this code in December when this worked fine, but now throws the ReferenceError.Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.Cheers,M

my pc wont download adobe air 3.1 can you help plz

Hey guys. I've just released my first app built using Adobe AIR 3.2 for iOS and thought you might want to check it out. It's free and fairly simple, but it's also somewhat addictive. I'm quite proud of it.http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/skidpan/id504331022?ls=1&mt=8My high score is 52. Can anyone beat me at my own game? xD Any general feedback would also be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance, and I hope you enjoy it! (If anyone's interested, it was built using Flash Professional CS5.5, but compiled using ADT as it uses an iAd ANE from Milkman Games. As far as I'm aware ANEs not supported when publishing straight out of Flash Professional. This game took approimately 4 weeks to develop, but that's largely because it's my first flash project.)

So I'm using blitMask and ThrowProps to handle swiping / dragging of my movieclips.   However inside my movieclips I have some buttons.   I have tried a solution detecting the mouse press MouseY, etc.  to detect if the user swiped or touched. What is happening is that the variable comes up at NaN on the first touch of the screen.  Once the first touch is registered .. then it works.Does someone have a better solution for this ?   Otherwise if a user drags on the button .. the button event will be fired.Here is how I am doing it now.---------// Blitmasking for Section 1 TweenPlugin.activate([ThrowPropsPlugin]); var blitMask:BlitMask = new BlitMask(audioVideoContent_mc, audioVideoContent_mc.x, audioVideoContent_mc.y, audioVideoContent_mc.width, audioVideoContent_mc.height, true);blitMask.bitmapMode = false;var t1:uint, t2:uint, y1:Number, y2:Number;blitMask.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, mouseDownHandler);function mouseDownHandler(event:Mo

Hi Dudes,I am facing a problem in Window vista. It always crash when we open the window component using Adobe AIR. I am creating the Dynamic window and adding the child component as window.rawChildren.addChild(object) like this.. we made the setup , it is running perfect in all OS except Windows vista 32/64 bit.When we work with our AIR application in conjunction with our own h/w product(Tablet Driver).[without connection of Tablet slate with PC it works fine but with it not].S/w Details:- AIR Installer above 2 and SDK above 2.OS- Win-Vista 32/64 bit. AIR application crashes at certain point and shows the error like:- Problem signature:  Problem Event Name:                        APPCRASH  Application Name:                          &nb

I installed Master Collection CS5.5 Trial, and I can run Photoshop and other apps, but Help, Content Viewer and Widget Browser won't run, they give an error message "This application requires a version of Adobe AIR which cannot be found."Before I installed the trial, there was no AIR installed (Clean Windows install)... After the trial is installed, I note that AIR 2.5 has been installed - and yet I get the above message. I try uninstalling 2.5, get the same message. After restoring the previous image (which does not have AIR installed yet), I go to <www.adobe.com/go/getair> as instructed; it seems to download 3.2, it shows up that way in the program list, but still same messages and I cannot uninstall this version either (3.2, same message).I followed the recommendation from here (and Microsoft) to use Mr. Fixit to uninstall, which appears to work successfully, and then reinstall from <www.adobe.com/go/getair>, which also appears to go successfully, but same erorrs as befo

So last night when my computer shut down, it made some updates. I believe it made both windows (Windows 7 64 bit) and nvidia updates (Nvidia GeForce GTX 580). Prior to today, 3D worked great on this machine. Now, all my 3D projects are running slow, spiking the CPU, and showing Context3D.driverInfo is showing “software (direct)". I have uninstalled, reinstalled, and rolled back my Nvidia Drivers but nothing has worked. System Recovery is not completing so I can’t roll everything back… any advice/solution? I am running all Adobe Air 3.2 projects from Flash Builder4.6 with the Air3.2 SDK.

I'm not sure why ..  my compile time just went from approx 20-30 seconds  ... to 2:41       All I've done is add some images and minimal code changes.Any idea why this would happen ?   2:41 compile time is not going to be fun.

Hi there,having an AIR applicaction, that loads several swf:s.In these swf:s i'm loading a several xml:s (from a php on a server) with URLLoadThe server respons correctly (at least when I check from whithin a browser to the same address...)The thing is I randomly recieve some strange characters at the end of file (not always the same - they are are random garbage) which turns the xml non-valid when aI try to cast the data to XML.In some cases there is no data at all (the oncomplete dispatches, but the string recieved is empty...)I could post some code, but prefer to start to ask if there maybe are som known issues?thank you/javier enciso

Hi, recently I was forced to use adt command line, as we need to sign our installer with a migrate certificate. The problem is we use native installer option, so the workflow goes like this.1. I make a release build of .air file from FlashBuilder, sign it with new cert2. call adt from command line with -migrate option, which creates the migrated .air file3. call adt from command line with -package -target native options, which creates an .exe (.dmg) file out of the migrated .air fileAs the command line calls take a load of arguments, I wanted to create a batch script, that would do both. The problem is the batch script always exits after the first adt call (which is successfull), so this leaves me with having two separate bat files that I need to run one after another manually.Other commands that i put before the first adt call works just fine, so I assume it is the adt that exits the batch somehow. Is there a way to force the adt not to exit, so that the batch script can run on....Tha

Hi, I’m sure this is pretty trivial so I am sorry if this is an easy question, AS3 is far from my strong point.I have had a look here http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/flash/desktop/NativeApplication.html but I'm not 100% sure which class will help me achieve what I want to do and how to implement that code.I just want to run a function when the native application re-opens?If someone could help me out or let me know if this is possible that would be great.Thanks, Alex
