The NCManagerNative class is a subclass of the NCManager class and supports native bandwidth detection, which some Flash Video Streaming Service providers may support. Check with your FVSS provider to see whether they support native bandwidth detection. Native bandwidth detection means that the bandwidth detection is built in to the streaming server and performs better.

When an NCManagerNative object is used, the main.asc file is not required on the server. If bandwidth detection is not required, the NCManagerNative object allows connection to any version of the Flash Media Server (FMS) without the main.asc file.

To use this instead of the default fl.video.NCManager, put the following code in Frame 1 of your FLA file:

     import fl.video.*;
     VideoPlayer.iNCManagerClass = fl.video.NCManagerNative;

streamLength:Number [read-only] [override]

Language Version:

Length of the stream, in milliseconds. After the VideoPlayer.ncConnected() method is called, if it returns undefined, null or less than 0, then the VideoPlayer object knows that there is no stream length information. If stream length information is returned, it overrides any existing steam length information including information set by the totalTime parameter of the VideoPlayer.play() method, the VideoPlayer.load() method or information received from the FLV file's metadata.

Implementation
override public function get streamLength():Number
