flash.events.IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR for FeathersVideoPlayer

crooksy88

How would you use the IOError event with a FeathersVideoPlayer?
This doesn't appear to work.

private static var _player:FeathersVideoPlayer;
_player = new FeathersVideoPlayer(_remoteVideoFileURL,0,80,640,360,false);
_player.addEventListener(flash.events.IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, desktopPlayerTempIOError);

private function desktopPlayerTempIOError(event:flash.events.IOErrorEvent): void {
trace("video error");
}

Are you sure that you aren't using some kind of wrapper component? The Feathers component is named VideoPlayer. If you have added it as a child of another component, you'll need to redispatch all events. They do not bubble.

Additionally, please be aware that you may need to listen for FeathersEventType.ERROR too.

Finally, are you sure that the IOError is being thrown by the VideoPlayer, and not from something else?

Thanks Josh. Yes this was a mix of wrapping and using FeathersEventType.ERROR.
