null for source.
Returns
Nothing.
Description
Method; specifies a video stream (source) to be displayed within the boundaries of the Video
object on the Stage. The video stream is either an FLV file being displayed by means of the
NetStream.play() command, a Camera object, or null. If source is null, video is no longer played
within the Video object.
You don’t have to use this method if the FLV file contains only audio; the audio portion of an
FLV files is played automatically when the
NetStream.play() command is issued.
If you want to control the audio associated with an FLV file, you can use
MovieClip.attachAudio() to route the audio to a movie clip; you can then create a Sound
object to control some aspects of the audio. For more information, see
MovieClip.attachAudio().
Example
The following example plays live video locally.
my_cam = Camera.get();
my_video.attachVideo(my_cam); // my_video is a Video object on the Stage
The following example plays a previously recorded file named myVideo.flv that is stored in the
same directory as the SWF file.
var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
nc.connect(null);
var ns:NetStream = new NetStream(my_nc);
my_video.attachVideo(ns); // my_video is a Video object on the Stage
ns.play("myVideo.flv");
