Hi,
I’ve been fiddling around with After Effects and Flash, exporting tracking data from the former and using it to distort a bitmap in the latter:-
http://www.nooberal.co.uk/trackingtest/
The test works well locally; though online I run into problems where the tracked bitmap slips from the FLV on which it sits.
What binds everything together is an FLVPlaybackComponent firing CUE_POINT events, which provide the location of the four corner points used by an instance of Flash Sandy’s DistortImage class.
It’s not about jerky playback. It’s about the bitmap remaining synchronised with the FLV, regardless of playback integrity. It’s almost as though the CUE_POINT event isn’t being fired when the FLV stutters (next thing to check after the weekend).
Is there anything I can do, has anyone experienced anything similar, or am I reliant on the host being able to serve the FLV at sufficient speed (out of interest, the video is currently coming from a dedicated video streaming server - what goes quicker I don’t know)?
Am I even making sense?
Thanks in advance,
