  • Flashcom 1.5

    Macromedia’s Flash Communication Server MX 1.5 is out. Co-inciding with the Flash Forward, I reckon. You can try the developer edition <a href=”http://www.macromedia.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=flashcom”>here</a>.

    Additional features…

  • JXL Downunder

    <a href=”http://www.daveallbritton.com”>Dave</a> from Atlanta, GA, USA (a highway exit up from me with a better cable connection), was watching my live webcast from Australia and taking screenshots every 5 minutes or so… mainly when I described a subject with body language. Here is the compiled set of images. Can’t you just tell I love this stuff!?

  • Director MX Woez

    Ok, I can connect to my Flashcom server inside of Director MX, but I can’t for the life of me get a Flash video sprite to appear with a Camera attached to it, nor make the settings panel appear by sprite(1).settingsPanel(1). WTF!?!?!?!……….

    I have sumarized the Flashcom stuff, so check the link above for exact changes.

    <b>Flashcom</b>
    – better audio and video syncronization from Flashcom
    – better video framerate in live mode
    – better audio latency in live mode (fewer gaps)
    – new NetStream property in live mode called <code>liveDelay</code> which shows how much audio delay you are experiencing because of varying network delays
    – syncronization of buffered FLV’s between video, audio, and data is now more precise (pre-recorded FLV’s)
    – stream time property is now more smooth in changing whereas before it increased in steps

    <b>Time Zone Fix</b>
    – Fixed invalid daylight savings time offset in the southern hemisphere.

    <b>Nested Masks with Device Text</b>
    – Fixed rendering bug with device text and nested masks. This issue was only present on Windows XP.

    <b>Screen Reader Crash</b>
    – The Windows Tablet PC Operating System ships with the Screen Reader ?Speak Text? on by default. This system along with others that rely on a screen reader were experiencing a crash on certain web sites. This issue has been resolved.
