So I took this code from a webpage and it works but there is a detail. The sound it plays is not the one I want it to play... even if specify the name and assets it looks like it plays some sound from microsoft? Thanks!
Apparently this is a bug in windows 10 and there is no solution to it at the moment.
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/tiles_and_toasts/archive/2015/07/02/adaptive-and-interactive-toast-notifications-for-windows-10.aspx
"...custom audio isn't working. We're investigating this issue. Both
ms-appx and ms-appdata don't work on Desktop, and only ms-appdata work
on Mobile."
Toast notifications can only play a fixed set of system provided sounds - for example, ms-winsoundevent:Notification.Mail. The default sound will be played if a specific sound is not specified, or if an invalid src is provided.
The full list of supported sounds can be found in this documentation on MSDN.

Have read many similar but no solutions: I'm trying to do something (that i think is) really simple,
Take a photo from gallery or camera - and POST this to a URL. No saving / returning to application. The PNG is just used by the webpage in display and user moves onward.
public function postPicture():void {
PNGEncoder2.level = CompressionLevel.FAST;
var encoder : PNGEncoder2 = PNGEncoder2.encodeAsync(_bitmapData);
encoder.targetFPS = 12;
encoder.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, function (e):void {
var png : ByteArray = encoder.png;
var header:URLRequestHeader = new URLRequestHeader("Content-type", "application/octet-stream");
var jpgURLRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("https://myurl.com/mypage");
jpgURLRequest.requestHeaders.push(header);
jpgURLRequest.method = URLRequestMethod.POST;
jpgURLRequest.data = png;
navigateToURL(jpgURLRequest, "_blank");
});
}
Also to note, we're getting some odd characters on the end of the URL: C9%90NG
Hunch is that I'm decoding and then not encoding properly before sending i.e. these characters some part of raw image info.
When I test from chrome POST extension with another image, server side stuff works fine so guessing a problem with AS3.
basically its working when I use chrome to browse > my.png and POST it at the page. Am I missing something with the AS3 png encoder? i.e. how to turn that bmpdata into a 'file' rather than an array of bytes.
thankyou
You need to use multipart upload. It's a common situation with a well defined standards for that. You can implement it by yourself but it will take some time and efforts.
What I've used before is the Multipart URLLoader Class provided by Eugene Zatepyakin, one the best Flash guru's out there :)
It's some kind of old but does the job extremely well. You can add variables, files, whatever content you want to your loader and simply submit it. There are examples with the php side of the thing so you can understand what's going on.
I am using web audio api in my project. Is there a way to record the audio data that's being sent to webkitAudioContext.destination?
.wav files are playing in my browser, so there should be some way to store that data into a (.wav) file . i know this is possible, but not yet find any solution :(
recorder.js can help me, but upto now i found it is only recording the microphone live input, is it possible to record my audio(.wav files) with the help of recorder.js? plz help
i am using this sample for recording https://github.com/mattdiamond/Recorderjs
I have managed to achieve this through a pure WebAudio solution (no Recorderjs needed). You can see it working fully on my discJS project and use the relevant source file to see how my complete code is working. I imagine this is only relevant to recording WebAudio nodes that you are playing yourself programmatically.
First you will need an HTML <audio> to use as a final destination. In this case I choose to show the controls so that the user may easily download the resulting file.
<audio id='recording' controls='true'></audio>
Now for the Javascript mojo:
const CONTEXT = new AudioContext();
var recorder=false;
var recordingstream=false;
function startrecording(){
recordingstream=CONTEXT.createMediaStreamDestination();
recorder=new MediaRecorder(recordingstream.stream);
recorder.start();
}
function stoprecording(){
recorder.addEventListener('dataavailable',function(e){
document.querySelector('#recording').src=URL.createObjectURL(e.data);
recorder=false;
recordingstream=false;
});
recorder.stop();
}
Now the final glue is that whenever you play an audio source, you also need to connect it to your recording stream:
function play(source){
let a=new Audio(source);
let mediasource=CONTEXT.createMediaElementSource(a);
mediasource.connect(CONTEXT.destination);//plays to default context (speakers)
mediasource.connect(recordingstream);//connects also to MediaRecorder
a.play();
}
This is a relatively primitive setup that works fine (tested on Firefox 52 and Chrome 70). For a more proper implementation, see MediaRecorder on MDN.
As found on the github: var rec = new Recorder(source [, config]), where source is an audio node. So it's up to you to put in the right node. If you play .wav files using <audio>, you can send it to the recorder:
<audio id="audio" src="" controls></audio>
var a = document.getElementById('audio');
var context = new webkitAudioContext();
var sourceNode = context.createMediaElementSource(a);
var rec = new Recorder(sourceNode);
I created an app for windows Phone 8 and want to implement Live tiles in my app. I don't even know anything about live tiles. I tried many examples from the forums and all.
But all are in the form of buttons(Like Flip, Cycle) If i click Cycle Button it will direct to the start screen to show the Cycle Tile.
But, How could i implement in my app. i want to shows the lives tiles only when user pins into the start screen.
anyone, help me to solve this????
Thanks in Advance.
The first thing you need to know is that LiveTiles on Windows Phone 8 can be implemented only from C#/.NET code, not C++. The native libraries don't have access to LiveTiles, so you need to use the .NET API.
Next... if your app is written in C++ with DirectX, you need to use XAML with Direct3D interop. This means you will have at least 2 VS projects, one using XAML/C#, the other using C++. LiveTiles will be updated through callbacks and delegates, sending events from the C++ component to the C# XAML component.
(If your app is using only C#/.NET, you don;t need any callbacks)
One more thing: the only type of LiveTile which always works on Windows Phone is FlipTile type. If you use iconic tiles, WP8 usually ignores colors, and shows only white&transparency.
Here is a snippet from my C++ component:
std:string dummyStd = "test string to display";
std::wstring dummyWs.assign(dummyStd.begin(), dummyStd.end());
Platform::String^ dummy = ref new Platform::String(separatorWs.c_str());
m_d3DInterop->OnLiveTilesUpdates(dummy);
and a snippet from the C# component:
public void OnLiveTilesUpdates(String s)
{
String szTitle = "title";
String szText = s;
ShellTile oTile = ShellTile.ActiveTiles.First();
{
FlipTileData oFliptile = new FlipTileData();
oFliptile.Title = "";
oFliptile.Count = 0;
oFliptile.BackTitle = szText;
oFliptile.BackContent = szTitle;
oFliptile.WideBackContent = szTitle;
oFliptile.SmallBackgroundImage = new Uri("/Assets/Tiles/FlipTileFrontSmall.png", UriKind.Relative);
oFliptile.BackgroundImage = new Uri("/Assets/Tiles/FlipTileFrontMedium.png", UriKind.Relative);
oFliptile.WideBackgroundImage = new Uri("/Assets/Tiles/FlipTileFrontHigh.png", UriKind.Relative);
oFliptile.BackBackgroundImage = new Uri("/Assets/Tiles/FlipTileFrontMedium.png", UriKind.Relative);
oFliptile.WideBackBackgroundImage = new Uri("/Assets/Tiles/FlipTileFrontHigh.png", UriKind.Relative);
oTile.Update(oFliptile);
}
Remember you need to bind the two snippets of code using events and delegates/callbacks (only if you use XAML with Direct3D interop).
Also, if you arrive here, you should know that the best component to use for rendering is DrawingSurface, because DrawingSurfaceBackgroundGrid has some z-order issues in WP8, and SwapChainBackgroundPanel is not supported in WP8.
PS: you should also do some research regarding secondary tiles.
I want to write a Windows Store App that can capture video (without any sound) and take pictures. Imagine a digital camera: you can preview the picture on the screen of your device before pushing the button which takes the pic.
The problem I'm facing now is the fact that the Windows.Media.Capture namespace has only classes for objects that capture video with sound (CameraCaptureUI, MediaCapture). I'm not troubled by the objects' capabilities, but by the fact that I will have to include in the manifest of the app the Microphone capability and it does not make sense for the app to use it. I need a class that uses only the Webcam capability.
Any ideas?
I found the answer and I thought I should share it. I'm sorry for answering my own question, but here goes:
One can specify in the settings of the MediaCapture object, when initializing it, that it will use only the Video part:
var mediaCaptureMgr = new MediaCapture();
var captureSettings = new MediaCaptureInitializationSettings();
captureSettings.StreamingCaptureMode = StreamingCaptureMode.Video;
await mediaCaptureMgr.InitializeAsync(captureSettings);
RTFM!
I want to create an AIR application in which i need to show the notification that when AIR application is minimize then at some interval of time message shows from the system tray similar like giving information.
I have visited this LINK, its a nice component but tutorial is not that much good as component. I need to create a component like that or source is available from this site so modification in this component will also be acceptable. so please help me.
EG: When you minimize the Yahoo Messenger and some one is sign-out or sign-in then it gives notification i want component similar like that...
Thanks in Advance
First Step, We have created a Custom Popup control for Notifications display.
In the second step, we have controlled the display of that popup using the following code
if(!this.stage.nativeWindow.visible || this.stage.nativeWindow.displayState == NativeWindowDisplayState.MINIMIZED)
{
stage.nativeWindow.alwaysInFront = true;
fadeTimer = new Timer(5000,1);
fadeTimer.start();
fadeTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER_COMPLETE, fadePopUp);
popUpWindow = new PopUpWindow();
popUpWindow.isAlerts = true;
popUpWindow.Message = "<b>You have "+event.numNewMessages+" new notification messages<b>";
popUpWindow.type = NativeWindowType.LIGHTWEIGHT;
popUpWindow.open(true);
popUpWindow.fadeInEffect.play();
popUpWindow.nativeWindow.x = Capabilities.screenResolutionX - popUpWindow.width - 10;
popUpWindow.nativeWindow.y = Capabilities.screenResolutionY - popUpWindow.height - 35;
}
The condition used above is what we have used to find out, whether our application window is minimized to System Tray or not. Even though it is not a perfect fix, It didn't fail me yet. It's quiet stable for my app.
