Hello to all you good people,

I have a small video record app that, once the video is recorded and the
user confirms they wish to keep it, invokes a PERL script to copy the
file to another location [this will eventually also integrate ffmpeg to
convert the file to mpeg]. Does anyone know whether it is possible that
once this is succesful the PERL script could call a function on th FCS?

Thanks

Mart

Sounds like you need to visit AMF::PERL @ http://www.simonf.com/flap/

Even though this is basically providing REMOTING to Flash - you could also
execute shell commands from the backend PERL code, why not....

Thanks,
Ian

Hmm .. you seem to be able to call the PERL script already? From your
question I'm guessing that you call it from the client. Would you have
called it from the fcs server, you'd probably have known about the
xx_Result.

It bascially comes down to using http://www.simonf.com/flap/
(AMF::Perl). AMF is a way of calling methods on a webserver from within
flash or flashcom. Your method gets called, then executed on the
webserver - the return value comes back to Flash/FCS (whichever called
the method).

Have fun!
