Adobe Flash Player Settings not show Remember button - html

I have an Adobe Flash Player Application, when the page loads it shows a popup ( the Adobe flash player settings ), but in that popup it doesn't show the Remember checkbox.
Please help.

There are two different kind of popup:
The first one is displayed when then application try to access a webcam or a microphone. This one does not display a remember option. That the one you see in your application;
The second one is displayed programmatically by performing a call to Security.showSettings()
It is good practice to open the security panel before trying to access any of the webcams / cameras / microphones of the user anyway.
In case you don't develop this application but still want to display the popup with the remember option, you can do so by right-clicking on it and select Settings.... The privacy tab should be the second one.

SystemMediaTransportControls track name click event

I'm using SystemMediaTransportControls to control audio playback throughout my Windows Phone 8.1 Universal App.
The controls seem to have a one specific behaviour - the track name and artist act as a clickable button and clicking on it fires the OnLaunched event for the app.
Is there any way to either change the behaviour of this button or at least detect if the OnLaunched event is fired due to user clicking on this button?
Specifically, I need to direct the user to the currently playing album's page in the app when she clicks on this button.
The current behavior is that it launches/reactivates the app associated with the background audio playback. The same behavior applies to the Windows Store Music app.
Here's what I think you could try:
If your app has multiple album pages for currently playing audio, then you might consider subscribing to foreground messages from the background task. You can use "BackgroundMediaPlayer.SendMessageToForeground" to send messages to the foreground and navigate appropriately. Try making the call in the OnLaunched event before the Windows is activated. You should also be able to get currently playing audio information and use that accordingly.
Take a look at the Background Audio for Windows Phone 8.1 sample for more details on how to use background audio. Then you should try what I mentioned to see if that works for you.
Hope this helps.

Use AS3 to open an swf. in a browser without the browser toolbar (forward / back buttons)

I have developed a very large swf. that will only be accessed in-house. There are over 100 scenes & 10000 frames (I had no idea the project would grow this large). I have developed a navigation system within the swf., but I have found that many users are clicking the forward / back buttons in the browser toolbar (IE8). This is a big issue for me, because the user then has no way to return to the location in the swf. that they were in before hitting the back button. Is there a way to code into the swf. using AS3 to ensure that the browser toolbar is disabled?
Disabling the parts of the user interface that the users are using a lot is a very bad idea.
Instead, simply use the browser buttons for navigation.
SWFAddress let's you do that
You can have deep linking, too. (allows users to send a link of where they are to other people)

Sliding control in wp8

I have developed wp8 app and looking for a control to slide. I am showing single verse in the page and I want the user to slide (forward and backward) to show next verse, verses may reach 286. I have seen this feature in many application in windows phone store, but I don't what wp8 control they are using.
appreciate your feedback!
Panorama is that you have one image in the background you move a little everytime you go to one side, it is what is used in the image app.
But since you need 286, you should not use the panorama control. Then you should rely on the pivot but beware of microsoft not wanting the users to be confused and caught inside 286 pages, so you need to give the user and overview and use a button that can return a person to the start page.

Least intrusive webcam capture in browser

I need to capture webcam images from inside browser. I am planning to use Flash but since am not experienced in it, before jumping into it, I want to ask you experts :
Will Flash ask for Webcam permission every time user refreshes the page ? Isn't there some global security setting to allow a website.
Is it essential to display the webcam feed on the browser to be able to capture it / take snapshot and upload to server. I totally don't want to show live feed on the webpage, all I want is to take snapshots and upload it in the background.
The purpose of above requirement is that we are trying to add proctoring to our online assessment platform, and hence we don't want to reload / ask for permission again every time candidate views a new test page. One alternative can be making the whole site a single page webapp, but definitely that will add quite some overhead.

Allow my app to be opened with camera button

I'm working on a WP8 app that will utilize the camera for a feature. I've read that, as of GDR2, you can now change which app opens with the camera button, but:
it appears that an app needs to be specially written to be used like
this; not every photo or camera app can be configured to launch when
you press the Camera button.
Question: What do I need to do in my app for it to become an available option in the "Pressing the camera button opens: " drop down when navigating to Settings -> Applications -> photos + camera?
Additionally, part 2 of this question would be (if part 1 is possible), when the application is launching, can I determine if the user opened it via the camera button (so that I could go straight to my camera feature)?
I've seen this article but it only describes how to use and handle the shutter button, it doesn't mention how to allow this button to open the app.
Has anyone been able to accomplish this?
This thread (http://forums.wpcentral.com/windows-phone-8/234751-changing-default-camera-app.html) seems to suggest that only manufacturers can create apps that can do this. Not sure if it's definite, but I've never heard of a 3rd party camera app that can do more than register as a lens.
