FLVPlayback.CONNECTION_ERROR

Availability

Flash Player 8.

Edition

Flash Professional 8.

Usage

mx.video.FLVPlayback.CONNECTION_ERROR

Description

A read-only FLVPlayback class property that contains the string constant "connectionError". You can compare this property to the state property to determine if a connection error state has occurred.

Example

The following example forces a connection error by specifying an invalid FLV filename (nosuch.flv) in the contentPath property. The example uses the CONNECTION_ERROR property to detect the error in a listener for the stateChange event.

Drag an FLVPlayback component to the Stage, and give it an instance name of my_FLVPlybk. Then add the following code to the Actions panel on Frame 1 of the Timeline:

/**
 Requires:
  - FLVPlayback component on the Stage with an instance name of my_FLVPlybk
*/
import mx.video.*;
my_FLVPlybk.contentPath = "http://www.helpexamples.com/flash/video/no_such.flv";
var listenerObject:Object = new Object();
listenerObject.stateChange = function(eventObject:Object):Void {
    if(my_FLVPlybk.state == FLVPlayback.CONNECTION_ERROR)
        trace("State: " + FLVPlayback.CONNECTION_ERROR);
}
my_FLVPlybk.addEventListener("stateChange", listenerObject);
