Flash Media Server Architecture

The NetStream.Failed and NetStream.Play.Failed information objects also have a description
property, which is a string that provides a specific reason for the failure.

The NetStream.Play.Start and NetStream.Play.Failed information objects also have a details
property, which is a string that provides the name of the streams being played. This is useful
for multiple plays. The details property shows the name of the stream when switching from
one element in the playlist to the next element.

Understanding shared object flow

Shared objects simplify the developer’s task in sharing data between multiple users. A Flash
client application subscribes to a remote shared object by issuing a

SharedObject.getRemote()

command, which returns a reference to the remote shared

object. The client then issues a

SharedObject.connect()

command to connect the remote

shared object to the server. Calling

SharedObject.connect()

associates the SharedObject

with the NetConnection object (which is the connection used for sending and receiving data
to and from the server), so the shared object can send and receive updates to and from the
server.

NetStream.Record.NoAccess

Error

An attempt was made to record a read-only
stream.

NetStream.Record.Stop

Status

Recording was stopped.

NetStream.Record.Failed

Error

An attempt to record a stream failed.

The initial publish to a stream was successful.
This message is sent to all subscribers.

NetStream.Play.UnpublishNotify

Status

An attempt to unpublish from a stream was
successful. This message is sent to all
subscribers.
