Client-Side ActionScript Language Reference

Camera.names

Availability

■

Flash Player 6.

■

Flash Media Server (not required).

Usage

public static names : Array [read-only]

Description

Class property (read-only); retrieves an array of strings reflecting the names of all available
video capture devices (including video capture cards and cameras) without displaying the
Flash Player Privacy dialog box. This array behaves the same as any other ActionScript array,
implicitly providing the zero-based index of each camera driver and the number of camera
drivers on the system (by means of

Camera.names.length

). For more information, see the

Array class entry in the ActionScript 2.0 Language Reference.

Calling the

Camera.names

property requires an extensive examination of the hardware, and it

may take several seconds to build the array. In most cases, you can just use the default camera.

Example

The following example uses the default camera unless more than one camera is available, in
which case the user can choose which camera to set as the default camera. If only one camera
is present, the default camera is used.

Create a new video instance by selecting New Video from the Library options menu. Add an
instance to the Stage and give it the instance name

my_video

. Then add the following

ActionScript to Frame 1 of the Timeline:

var my_video:Video;
var cam_array:Array = Camera.names;
if (cam_array.length>1) {
System.showSettings(3);
}
var my_cam:Camera = Camera.get();
my_video.attachVideo(my_cam);
