Recording trial-based responses from Flash (case 434)

[zlevin]

Hi,

I'm fairly new to both MediaLab and DirectRT. I'm using the 2008 version of both softwares.

After browsing through the help files, I have some questions regarding the use of Flash files (SWF) in my experiment.
First of all, I would like to know if it's possible to embed Flash files in DirectRT, because my experiment is trial-based and I prefer to use DirectRT.
As far as I know, I can only do this in MediaLab... right?

Assuming I have to use MediaLab for this, I would very much like to know:
1. What types of communication are possible between a Flash movie and MediaLab? My subjects will perform a Flash-based visual task and I want to record their responses, as well as their response time.
2. Each subject will perform many trials, repeating the same Flash-based visual task. Can MediaLab handle trial-based results?

Thank you, Ziv
