Damn You Flash Player 9.0.115.0

4.01.08 @ 9:41 am

Well, Flash Player 9 patched up a security hole for Bitmap.draw() on NetStream video… Yes, I know, this is a good thing, but it broke my code for this, this, this and this. I have managed to partially fix a couple of them, but this is really my fault as well since the code I wrote for these presentations lacked, um, long term thinking… OK, the code was a mess.

You can read the details of the subject here. I hope to have these presentations fixed next week.bitmap draw, flash player 9, netstream, security video

I’m sorry you were caught by unhappy surprise like this. I can’t do more than apologize at the moment, but I’ll make sure that your voice is heard by others inside Adobe, in hopes of avoiding similar surprises in the future.

Oh, I’m being more sarcastic than anything. It’s ultimately a turn for the better, and I should have built my apps to be prepped for something like this.

Thanks for the response though!
