Modest Maps
by camel & 4 others
Modest Maps is a BSD-licensed display and interaction library for tile-based maps in Flash (ActionScript 2.0 and ActionScript 3.0) and Python.
Our intent is to provide a minimal, extensible, customizable, and free display library for discriminating designers and developers who want to use interactive maps in their own projects. Modest Maps provides a core set of features in a tight, clean package, with plenty of hooks for additional functionality.

flv streaming with lighttpd
by camel & 2 others (via)
1.4.11 got a new module for streaming Flash movie files called mod_flv_streaming. This module allows you to seek in FLV files using the high performance infrastructure of lighttpd.
The idea is simple and explained and implemented on ‘Streaming’ flv video via PHP, take two at http://www.flashcomguru.com/
But instead of streaming the file through PHP we do it in the webserver. The module expects a request for the URL which matches flv-streaming.extensions and can handle a ’?start=’ as part of the request.
The information to pass into the ‘start’ parameter is extractly by the flash-player from the meta-data of the flv-files. The meta-data can be setup with flvtool2
Now I leave it to you to combine this with mod_secdownload to create a flv-streaming server for free with deep/hot linking protected movies.
server.modules = (
...,
"mod_secdownload", ## optional
"mod_flv_streaming",
...
)
flv-streaming.extensions = ( ".flv" )
Take the flash-player from flashcomguru and adjust the URL in the player and try yourself.

by kasi77 & 13 others
Are you a Gmail, Facebook, Campfire or Pandora fanatic? Do you have 20 or more browser tabs open at all times? Are you tired of some random site or Flash ad crashing your browser and causing you to lose your (say) Google Docs data in another tab?

NCAM/CC for Flash
by julie & 1 other
NCAM has developed a Flash component that can be used to display captions of Flash video and audio content. These captions are stored in external files formatted in the W3C's DFXP format which can be created with MAGpie, NCAM's free captioning application. CC for Flash can also display captions saved in Apple's QTtext format. QTtext files can be created by professional caption authoring tools, with MAGpie or with CaptionKeeper, NCAM's line-21 caption-conversion tool.
