Remote control through smart phone.

[Smelter]

Hey guys, I took the brass monkey flash library and made a app to use your iphone as a remote control. It took 20 minutes to write the flash code. Im just goofing off with the flash lib.

if you want to try the remote control on your iphone/ipad/ipod

The online service url is here

Open this in app store to get brass monkey.

We could add volume controls , etc to the remote too using the touch lib.

THis is all the code it took to accomplish.


public var remote:BMApplication=new BMApplication();

public function boot():void
{
while(idLogo.numChildren)
idLogo.removeChildAt(0);
idLogo.addChild(new WinampLogo());
remote.initiate('Winamp Remote Control',1,'f056231599dd49a786216bb7aefb5b7d');
remote.addEventListener(DeviceEvent.DEVICE_LOADED, onDevice);
remote.addEventListener(DeviceEvent.DEVICE_DISCONNECTED, onDevice);
var clip:RemoteControlScheme=new RemoteControlScheme();
remote.session.registry.validateAndAddControlXML(BMControls.parseMovieClip(clip));
remote.start();
}

public function onButton(event:DeviceEvent):void
{
if(event.value.name=='onPlay' && event.value.state=='down')
ExternalInterface.call('window.external.Transport.Play');
if(event.value.name=='onPause' && event.value.state=='down')
ExternalInterface.call('window.external.Transport.Pause');
if(event.value.name=='onPrev' && event.value.state=='down')
ExternalInterface.call('window.external.Transport.Previous');
if(event.value.name=='onNext' && event.value.state=='down')
ExternalInterface.call('window.external.Transport.Next');
}

public function onDevice(event:DeviceEvent):void
{
if(event.type==DeviceEvent.DEVICE_LOADED)
event.device.addEventListener(DeviceEvent.SCHEME_BUTTON, onButton);

if(event.type==DeviceEvent.DEVICE_DISCONNECTED)
event.device.removeEventListener(DeviceEvent.SCHEME_BUTTON, onButton);

}
