Description

Hello,

I am using flashlsOSMF.swc in an AS3 Air desktop app, everything is working , great plugin ;)

Plugin is included as such :
import org.mangui.osmf.plugins.HLSPlugin;
streamFactory.loadPlugin(new PluginInfoResource(new HLSPlugin()));

Occasionally a stream I use experiences issues which cause TSDemuxer to throw "TS: Could not parse file: sync byte not found @ offset/len 1/188" type error.

My problem is I would like to handle this gracefully, but I cannot get my head round how to addEventListener to capture it. Have tried on the MediaFactory/MediaPlayer and MediaElement.

Is it possible ?

Sorry if this not a direct flashls question.

Thanks
Ian

Research direction

Start by tracing the TSDemuxer "sync byte not found" error through the HLSPlugin and the MediaFactory, MediaPlayer, and MediaElement event paths mentioned in the report. Determine whether the parse failure is exposed to an event listener, and verify that the resulting behavior lets an application handle the stream error gracefully.
