The NetStream.Failed and NetStream.Play.Failed information objects also have a description
property, which is a string that provides a specific reason for the failure.
The NetStream.Play.Start and NetStream.Play.Failed information objects also have a details
property, which is a string that provides the name of the streams being played. This is useful
for multiple plays. The details property shows the name of the stream when switching from
one element in the playlist to the next element.
Understanding shared object flow
Shared objects simplify the developer’s task in sharing data between multiple users. A Flash
client application subscribes to a remote shared object by issuing a
SharedObject.getRemote() command, which returns a reference to the remote shared
object. The client then issues a
SharedObject.connect() command to connect the remote
shared object to the server. Calling
SharedObject.connect() associates the SharedObject
with the NetConnection object (which is the connection used for sending and receiving data
to and from the server), so the shared object can send and receive updates to and from the
server.
