Hey guys ,
I was just starting on doing one of these. I have a problem , can you help please.

When I get my netconnection.nearID (nc.nearID) and try and display it in aan Alert box like , Alert.show(”This is ” + nc.nearID); I dont get anything ( Alert.show(”This is ” ); works fine)? Is this normal , I can see nc.uri or nc.toString(). So what is going on ?

Any help greatly appreciated.

I would rather wait till Flash Player 10.1 for Groups and Multicast stuff as it is going to be much clear and proper to do such things.

Btw: have a look at this article: http://blog.yoz.sk/2009/10/p2pmulticast/

Got it working now. However, when the third peer enters, it starts to lag really badly. I have 1 sendStream and 2 receiveStream instances in the case of 3 peers. There’s only one client instance for the 2 receiveStreams. Could this be causing the lag? I’ll try next if I can get it to work by having one client instance for every receiveStream and combine the data myself. Not sure why it should lag like that.

Yes for just sending to many peers one instance of sendStream seems to be enough. For both sending and receiving I can get 2 peers working, but when the third comes in it just becomes too hard to imagine how it goes haha. I’ll try to instanciate every receiveStream into a separate instance, take the farIDs from DB and start it that way. Any info when is the 10.1 coming? haha Thanks again! Pekka

I meant 3 instances for 3 streams 3 way communication

Pekka, I think you have to create 3 instances for two-way communication. But there might be probably one instance enough just for sending and 3 receiving. I am not 100% sure about this. Just go ahead and try, but anyway - All these kind of multi-user things will be solved in Flash Player 10.1, where you have Groups and Multicast available - so it’s going to be much easier to handle this.

Sorry, I meant NetStream that’s used for receiving when I wrote ReceiveStream.
