(Flash Professional only)
The streaming MediaPlayback and MediaController components respond to mouse and
keyboard activity; the MediaDisplay component does not. The following table summarizes
the actions for the MediaPlayback and MediaController components upon receiving focus:

The Pause/Play and Go to Beginning/Go to End

mouse button is pressed, the onscreen button
highlights in its pressed state, and when the mouse
button is released, the onscreen button reverts to
its unselected appearance.

files are playing.
Slider controls of a
given controller
Move slider back
and forth
The playbar indicates the user’s position within the
media; the playback slider moves horizontally (by
default) to indicate the playback from beginning
(left) to end (right). The slider moves from bottom
to top when the controls are oriented vertically. As
the slider moves from left to right, it highlights the
previous display space to indicate that this content
has been played back or selected. Display space
ahead of the slider remains unhighlighted until the
slider passes. Users can drag the slider to affect
the media’s playback position. If media is playing,
automatic playback begins from the point at which
the mouse is released. If the media is paused, the
user can move and release the slider and the media
remains paused.
There is also a volume slider, which moves from left
(muted) to right (maximum volume) in both the
horizontal and vertical layouts.
