Question

Are actionscript cue points stored for the whole video? or just that client stream?

I was just wondering whether or not actionscript cuepoints created via the default cuepointManager on a FMS stream be seen by other clients viewing the same video?

For example if I were to do this: (where vidVideo is an instance of VideoDisplay in flex 3)

vidVideo.cuePointManager.removeAllCuePoints();
var cuePointArr:Array = new Array();
cuePointArr.push({name:"stopClip", cuePointTime, type:"actionscript"});
vidVideo.cuePoints = cuePointArr;

Will other clients viewing the same video be affected by these cue points? or are Actionscript cue points maintained only on that stream?

    The CuePointManager is a local class... the information isn't sent to the server. Users viewing the stream who do not have the cuepoint data supplied to them in the .swf will not receive the cuepoint events.

    If you want to broadcast stream events to all clients, use Stream.send, or embed the cuepoint data into the video file before uploading it to your FMS.
