Multiple JSON Objects in AS3 Socket

Question

I've got a Socket coming back with this JSON from a camera

      var string:String = socket.readUTFBytes(socket.bytesAvailable);

      string = '{"rval":0,"msg_id":514}{ "msg_id": 7, "type": "video_record_complete" ,"param":"/tmp/fuse_d/DCIM/100MEDIA/YDXJ0149.mp4"}';

i.e. 2 JSON objects in the socket.

Is there any way to split them before decoding?

This is the JSON decode error I get when I try and decode them

JSONParseError: Unexpected characters left in input stream

Sure, just use split():

var strings:Array = string.split("}{");

However, you can probably just extract each JSON message one at a time using readtUTF() instead of readtUTFBytes() with all bytesAvailable:

while (socket.bytesAvailable) {
    var json:String = socket.readUTF();
}
