I'm using Flash Builder and created a spark-application Flex project that will stream video from the local camera. If I use mx.controls.VideoDisplay
; there is no problem since it has attachCamera(camera)
method. But Spark's VideoDisplay
component does not have that method. I know I can use mx controls inside a Spark app but I want to know:
spark.components.VideoDisplay
and mx.controls.VideoDisplay
?spark.components.VideoDisplay
?thanks.
EDIT: In the documentation this is mentioned: "Starting with Flex 4.0, Adobe recommends that you use the spark.components.VideoPlayer class as an alternative to this class. (mx.controls.VideoDisplay)"
Here are the specifics to get this working:
import mx.events.FlexEvent;
import org.osmf.net.StreamType;
import spark.components.mediaClasses.DynamicStreamingVideoItem;
import spark.components.mediaClasses.DynamicStreamingVideoSource;
private var _cam:DynamicStreamingVideoSource = new DynamicStreamingVideoSource();
private var _dynVideoSource:DynamicStreamingVideoSource;
protected function application1_creationCompleteHandler(event:FlexEvent):void
{
_dynVideoSource=new DynamicStreamingVideoSource();
var videoItems:Vector.<DynamicStreamingVideoItem>;
videoItems=new Vector.<DynamicStreamingVideoItem>();
videoItems[0]=new DynamicStreamingVideoItem();
_dynVideoSource.host= "";
_dynVideoSource.streamType=StreamType.LIVE;
_dynVideoSource.streamItems=videoItems;
mycam.source=_dynVideoSource;
var cam:Camera = Camera.getCamera(); //Camera.names[0]);
cam.setMode(640, 480, 15);
cam.setQuality(0, 80);
mycam.videoObject.attachCamera(cam);
}
