FLVRecorder

The FLVRecorder class is a powerful tool for software developers, designed to record a stream of BitmapData to a FLV-file. The class provides a superior solution to converting BitmapData to ByteArrays with the byte shifting class, which can cause unpredictable results. The FLVRecorder class overcomes this challenge by saving the BitmapData to a temporary file, preventing RAM overloading. Once the recording is complete, the class then converts the temporary file to an FLV-file.

Developers will appreciate the user-friendly design of the FLVRecorder class, complete with helpful events that indicate progress when recording starts and stops consecutively. With the ability to record BitmapData, Bitmaps, Flex and Flash components such as FLVPlayBack, VideoDisplay, Sprites and MovieClips, the FLVRecorder class offers a comprehensive range of recording options.

At present, the FLVRecorder class does not support sound recording to the FLV-file. However, this feature is planned for future development, so stay tuned. In the meantime, developers can take advantage of AirCam, a small application that shows the potential of the FLVRecorder class. With AirCam, webcams can be used to record and save results on the desktop as an flv-file.

If you want to view the source code used in the AirCam project, simply right-click on your screen and select "view source." In summary, the FLVRecorder class is an essential tool for software developers looking to record and save BitmapData as an flv-file.
