Depending on the filters/effects you are using it might be too much for the Flash player to handle. How are you deploying your animation? If you are deploying as a video I suggest rendering your animation as an image sequence (FILE>EXPORT>EXPORT MOVIE>PNG SEQUENCE) and then compiling it with a video editing package.

Ugh. This camera seems really great!

But for the animation I’m making, it needs to be HD format, so my stage is 1280×720. Which this camera doesn’t seem to like, as I experience MASSIVE amounts of lag. Although, while working on the default stage size or 550×400, it seems to work fine.

Is there any work around for this?

You can build overlays into the camera. Just make sure nothing goes outside the boundary of the camera and change “visible=true” in the camera code.

Is it possible to use graphic overlays built in the camera? or I have to make my stuff follow the camera object?
Great code btw, I LOVE it!

You are probably using Safari. Try another browser.

Am I the only one that when I click on either of the VCam links I get gibberish symbols, some actual coding, and ending with more gibberish symbols??

Is it possibly my computer?? Please help I would love to use this!

Hey Bryan

Thanks for the VCam it is awesome!! but for some reason when I take the flash exported quicktime into final cut pro 6.04 the vcam effect ie zoom is not smooth, how can I avoid the jerky playback in final cut pro, my flash and final cut screen dimensions are 1920 x 1080 and so is the dimensions of the VCam, my final cut project is HD.

Thanks again for this brilliant tool! Happy 2010 from South Africa

Flash doesn’t compute ActionScript animation when renderning AVIs. Try exporting it as a Quicktime and convert it to an AVI later.

Thank you very much for your free VCam, i have a problem though, im using this for a space game where the cam is fixed to the coordinates of the ship.

This is no problem, but as soon as i shoot ( place lasers in the same parent object as the ship, aswell as the cam) the lasers leave fragments of themselves behind as long as im not moving.
