Hi Smelter,

Nice to meet you here, just curious if you are from thebitstream.com so obviously your are the guy behind the thundersnow project by which I can call it as "ingenious project" you rule it man!.

Sorry maybe now is my chance to ask this question as I cannot find it anywhere to ask , latest version of Adobe Flash player is a bit buggy and SoundMixer.computeSpectrum does not work even the policy file has been served correctly so I plan to get the spectrum directly from the raw data of ByteArray which is came from your Transcoder Class of thebitstream, so my question is; are those data from ByteArray is similar to computespectrum? or still unprocessed AAC raw?

do you have any suggestion on how to extract audio peak values or VU meter from those raw data?, if you can make me a working example I'll be happy to pay for your effort if you require.

best regards

I hope i being here right with my question. I have question to the demo player inside the thundersnow package. How its possible to create a new skin? The player works fine but the default skin is very small and i need the player in higher resolution. In the package is not a source to the skin.

[Smelter]

ill see if I can dig it up

Smelter, give it news? I need only the source to your player for resizing the video interface. If you don't want give it free, then rebuilded for me but without any message is it not realy cool.

Im just too busy
