MetadataEvent

()Constructor
public function MetadataEvent(type:String, bubbles:Boolean = false, cancelable:Boolean = false, info:Object = null, vp:uint = 0)

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Product Version: Flash CS3
Runtime Versions: Flash Player 9.0.28.0, AIR 1.0

Creates an Event object that contains information about metadata events. Event objects are passed as parameters to event listeners.

Parameters
type:String — The type of the event. Event listeners can access this information through the inherited type property. Possible values are MetadataEvent.CUE_POINT and MetadataEvent.METADATA_RECEIVED.
 
bubbles:Boolean (default = false) — Determines whether the Event object participates in the bubbling stage of the event flow. Event listeners can access this information through the inherited bubbles property.
 
cancelable:Boolean (default = false) — Determines whether the Event object can be canceled. Event listeners can access this information through the inherited cancelable property.
 
info:Object (default = null) — Determines the dynamic properties to add.
 
vp:uint (default = 0) — Determines the index of the VideoPlayer object.
