I am using the as3crypto library to encrypt mp3 files in an Adobe Air application.

The code below runs without error but I realized that only the first few bytes of the mp3 file are getting encrypted but not the whole file. I have no idea whats the problem. Could someone please be so kind and have a look at my code below? import com.hurlant.crypto.symmetric.AESKey; import com.hurlant.crypto.symmetric.DESKey; import com.hurlant.util.Hex; import mx.controls.Alert; private static var stream:FileStream; private static var stream2:FileStream; private static var file:File; private var fileToEncrypt:ByteArray; private function encrypt():void { file = File.documentsDirectory.resolvePath(airenc/file1.mp3); fileToEncrypt = new ByteArray; stream = new FileStream(); stream.open( file, FileMode.READ ); stream.readBytes(fileToEncrypt); stream.close(); file = File.documentsDirectory.resolvePath(airenc/file1-enc.mp3); var key:ByteArray = Hex.toArray(myEncKey); //var aes:AESKey = new AESKey(key); var aes:ICipher = Crypto.getCipher(simple-aes-ecb, key,Crypto.getPad(pkcs5));
aes.encrypt(fileToEncrypt); stream2 = new FileStream(); stream2.open( file, FileMode.WRITE ); stream2.writeBytes(fileToEncrypt); stream2.close(); }

in the meantime I found the solution. If I replace:

var aes:AESKey = new AESKey(key); with var aes:ICipher = Crypto.getCipher(simple-aes-ecb, key,Crypto.getPad(pkcs5)); It encrypts the whole file.
