Adobe Flash has an External Interface to communicate with the container application:

Is it possible to use it from Python and implement a Flash controller module?

Thanks for your answers!

Hi,

No external interface in Flash is for Javascript (so for a browser).
You should use socket ('import socket' in python, 'import flash.net.Socket' in actionscript).

Some folks use FLOSC to communicate with Flash movies playing in modul8.

you can use localConnection to communicate between two SWF's, one of which is playing in modul8.

Externalinterface is meant to connect to surroundings other than swf movies. (it should be possible to use externalinterface to connect to modul8, but modul8 would have to support it too)
