hi, Chris, nice program, thanks but I find there is a problem in some browsers if I run embedded file from barcodepedia.com:

On one machine it’s fine, but the other it locks up. I guess it has to be some cross site scripting problem (and tougher settings at the one machine).

So I thought I shold try to run it from my own site, as you share the source code, it should be peanuts, I thought. But first: How do I edit and compile the Barcode Scanner.swc file? What program to use?

And more: I am a complete noob in Flash, but how hard can it be, open, compile and voila? But then; why should that be neccessary, wouldn’t you just share the compiled version as well? So first: what program to use for editing? And second: what parameters do I have to set?

There used to be a trading card game that used barcodes to generate powerups etc… just a thought…

Try adjusting your webcam’s zoom, sadly the component is not as forgiving as competitors products.

Nice one. But doesnt seem to work properly. It would be great, if you could share the source-code. Thanks :).
