Example how to setup serial communication between Flash and Arduino in combination with the Messenger library for Arduino. This is usefull if you want to use Arduino in a different way than as a sensorbox (if you want that check out the As3glue Firmata combination in my other post).

In this follow up article (Processing ControlP5 example 1) an example on how to style (font, color) the ControlP5 interface elements and how to set their values, so you can use them also to monitor variables. Read Processing ControlP5 library example 2 : Style and setValue »

The controlP5 library for Processing makes it easy to add knobs and buttons to your Processing applications. In this article an example how to add some interface elements (buttons, sliders etc.) and how to listen to their events. Read Processing ControlP5 library example 1 : user interface »

The AVCHD codec is a very processor intensive codec. A lot of computers have problem displaying and editing 1080i video ( resolution 1920 by 1080 ) video. When editing video its important to have fast and smooth playback. You can also apply and preview effects a lot faster when not working with AVCHD. In this article some options to convert AVCHD to DV to work with AVCHD in a more fluent way. Read Convert AVCHD to other codecs for more fluent editing »
