Camera.fps
public fps : Number[read-only]
The maximum rate at which you want the camera to capture data, in frames per second. The maximum rate possible depends on the capabilities of the camera; that is, if the camera doesn't support the value you set here, this frame rate will not be achieved.
- To set a desired value for this property, use Camera.setMode().
- To determine the rate at which the camera is currently capturing data, use Camera.currentFps.
Flash Media Server (not required); Flash Player 6.
The following example detects the rate in frames per second that the camera captures data, using the currentFps property and a ProgressBar instance. Create a new video instance by selecting New Video from the Library panel menu. Add an instance to the Stage and give it the instance name my_video. Add a ProgressBar component instance to the Stage and give it the instance name fps_pb. Then add the following code to Frame 1 of the Timeline:
var my_video:Video;
var fps_pb:mx.controls.ProgressBar;
var my_cam:Camera = Camera.get();
my_video.attachVideo(my_cam);
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
fps_pb.setProgress(my_cam.fps-my_cam.currentFps, my_cam.fps);
};
fps_pb.setStyle("fontSize", 10);
fps_pb.setStyle("themeColor", "haloOrange");
fps_pb.labelPlacement = "top";
fps_pb.mode = "manual";
fps_pb.label = "FPS: %2 (%3%% dropped)";
Note: The setMode() method does not guarantee the requested fps setting; it sets the fps that you requested or the fastest fps available.
