send OSC to Flash StringParameter

Post by tvcreate »

It would be great if you could send an OSC message to a Flash StringParameter.

I'm using OSC already to fully control the Arena Media Server, including different parameters to a Flash Movie.
But because I can't send strings to the flash movie, I have to setup a separate communication channel to the swf to get all data on the right place. Because Flash Player restrictions it is also not possible to send OSC directly to the swf (only possible in Adobe AIR).

If I follow the documentation, I should use "/activeclip/video/param2/textvalue" where param2 is a StringParameter. I'm hesitating now if the feature isn't implemented at all, or if it is just a bug or something.

No, this is indeed not implemented.

It's on the list of things we have to look at when it comes to OSC control.
