public pause( [ flag : Boolean] ) : Void
flag Optional: a Boolean value specifying whether to pause play (true) or resume play (false). If you omit this parameter, NetStream.pause() acts as a toggle: the first time it is called on a specified stream, it pauses play, and the next time it is called, it resumes play.
Nothing.
Method; pauses or resumes playback of a stream. This method is available only to clients subscribed to the specified stream, not to the stream's publisher.
The first time you call this method on a given playlist (without sending a parameter), it pauses the playlist; the next time, it resumes play. You might want to attach this method to a button that the user presses to pause or resume playback.
The following examples illustrate some uses of this method.
my_ns.pause(); // pauses play first time issued my_ns.pause(); // resumes play my_ns.pause(false); // no effect, play continues my_ns.pause(); // pauses play
In the following example, suppose you have a playlist of three recorded streams.
var my_nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
my_nc.connect("rtmp://localhost/appName/appInstance");
// Create a NetStream for playing back in a Video object named my_video.
var my_ns:NetStream = new NetStream(my_nc);
my_video.attachVideo(my_ns);
// to play record1
my_ns.play("record1", 0, -1, false);
// to play record2
my_ns.play("record2", 0, -1, false);
// to play record3
my_ns.play("record3", 0, -1, false);
// You click a button to pause while record2 is playing.
my_ns.pause();
// Later, you want to resume the play.
my_ns.pause();
// Later, you want to start a new playlist.
// to play record4
my_ns.play("record4", 0, -1, true);
// to play record5
my_ns.play("record5", 0, -1, false);
// to play record6
my_ns.play("record6", 0, -1, false);
NetStream.close(), NetStream.play()
