Want to get text from a Flash swf.

[rush4hire 1]

I have been searching for hours.

I just need to get the text from this Macromedia Flash chat client found here: http://www.maniatv.com/mip/mip.html

To start with. Then I want to send stuff maybe. Mostly I want to log the chat with the window closed.

Also. Is there anything that works with winpcap ? any winpcap / autoit projects ?

Thanks.

Oh btw. Here's what I've tried so far:

expandcollapse popup

;~ opt("WinDetectHiddenText", 1)
;~ $x = ControlGetFocus ("ManiaTV! Interactive Player (BETA) -")
;~ $x = WinGetText ("ManiaTV! Interactive Player (BETA) -")
;~ $x = WinGetClassList ("ManiaTV! Interactive Player (BETA) -")
;~ $x = WinGetProcess ("ManiaTV! Interactive Player (BETA) -")
;~ $x = ControlGetText ( "ManiaTV! Interactive Player (BETA) -", "Turtle: in some way or another", 129492648 )
ControlSend ( "ManiaTV! Interactive Player (BETA) -", "", 129492648, "hi" )
;~ $x = ControlListView ( "ManiaTV! Interactive Player (BETA) -", "", 129492648, "GetItemCount" )
$x = StdoutRead(3140)
InputBox ("","",$x)
;; WinGetProcess
;3140

;;;; focus
;~ MacromediaFlashPlayerActiveX1

;; window text
;~ http://www.maniatv.com/mip/mip.html

;~ Done

All I can suggest is WPE for the sending part.

[rush4hire 1]

Can't find WPE.

I have no idea what that means.

WPE Pro. Packet editor

[rush4hire 1]

Ok so this is like WinPCap? only different somehow ?

Thank you guys, and I'm seriously checking into this.

Ok I give up. I can't find this program. I'll just try WinPcap then.

Uhm.. OCR

Do a quick search and you'll know what i mean. Flash text isn't normal windows text (I always like to check wether you can select it and copy it normally, but flash may 'simulate' this.).

Yeah, its hard to find ^^

Maybe, try searching.

Windows Packet Editor Pro

Thanks.

I'll search for that. I think OCR would require the window to be visible right ? So that would not be very good.

O ya you can select the text. But I might try to work with the packets.

It will just take a bit of time to find out how the packet programs work.

But I need to learn about those anyway.

Is there anything on this forum dealing with packet manipulation ?

Another project would be to stop those dam porn bots in the yahoo chat rooms from booting ppl when they block them.

And that would take packet manipulation.

Couldnt you use the TCP functions or something?

Oh yeah, and, "I bypassed the censor "

[rush4hire 1]

O ya there are TCP functions. I dunno, I havent even looked at those.

Good thinking.

First of all I can't find a way to detect the port the process is using.

The process would be found by the browser window, but in this case it uses a different port each time. It has has used these ports last several times I went to this chat:

4259

4345

4779

5324

I can get the packets with WPE PRO. You don't have to find the port, just select a process ("Target program" menu) It will put the ip/port with each packet recieved.

I can't even get the packets when I have the port here.

Now it gives me the msgbox.....

All I have is this little test so far and now it just gives me the msgbox..

; I guess if no chat is sent for 60 seconds it will timeout....
Opt("TCPTimeout",60000)
$ip = "192.168.2.3"
$port = 5324

TCPStartUp()

$sock = TCPListen($ip, $port,  100 )
If $sock == -1 Then
    msgbox(0,'','not working?')
    Exit
Else
    $s = TCPRecv ($sock, 100)
    FileWrite ("pactest.txt",$s)
EndIf

WPE Pro, Shows the port & IP to connect to, but apparently, theres somthing to do with https, but I dont know that works.

[rush4hire 1]

I guess I'll have to use WinPCap. And the installation of this will have to come with the package.

[rush4hire 1]

Now i can't even get the socket. I got it once. Like this doesn't work.

And the port is different..

Is this impossible?

Or are there some examples of packet stuff?

What would I search for?

; I guess if no chat is sent for 60 seconds it will timeout....
Opt("TCPTimeout",60000)
;~ $ip = "8.3.208.85"
;~ $port = 443
$ip = "192.168.2.3"
;~ $port = 1170
$port = 1775

TCPStartUp()
While 1
    $sock = TCPListen($ip, $port,100)
    If $sock == -1 Then
        Sleep(100)
    Else
        ExitLoop
    EndIf
Wend
msgbox(0,'',$sock)
