I am trying to write the server element which will render a image constructed in Flash. I'm using ColorMatrixFilter in AS3 but it takes a 4x5 matrix, whereas the PHP version takes 5x5. I don't understand what the 5th row is? I think the last column is brightness. I don't understand how ColorMatrixFilter works on AS3 either but this is what I have

The third argument is the colour matrix.

see
http://www.imagemagick.org/script/comma ... lor-matrix
http://designstacks.net/color-matrix

Other two elements besides the main RGB are alpha and constant offsets

In IM "-color-matrix", the matrix rows represent output, and columns represent input. For RGB images, the 5 rows and columns are: red, green, blue, alpha, and offset. For example, if the first row has values "a,b,c,d,e" then the output red channel will be:

R' = a*R + b*G + c*B + d*A + e

where R,G,B and A are the input values.

The final row of the 5x5 matrix is meaningless.

Would you mind showing me an example? For a function with the following params

function($image, $flash_array, $alpha = 255)

I can't seem to get it working x(!
alpha = alpha of the colour matrix

Play with the online interactive color-matrix at http://designstacks.net/color-matrix. That should allow you to figure it out.

I haven't use ActionScript for years. Looking at the link Fred gave, the differences to IM seem to be:

In AS, the offset is typically in the range 0 to 255. In IM, this corresponds to 0.0 to 1.0.

In IM "-color-matrix", I generally use 6x6 matrices. For RGB images, the six columns and rows are: red, green, blue, alpha, unused, offset.

I think snibgo is correct, in IM the offsets are in the range 0 to 1.

The IM matrix uses 6x6 to permit c,m,y,k,alpha,offset for a CMYKA image

For RGBA image if you need the offset, then you can use 5x5. If no offset, then 4x4 and if no alpha, then 3x3 are permitted.
