Method Detail

authenticate

()

method

public function authenticate(serverURL:String, domain:String, username:String, password:String):void

Language Version:

ActionScript 3.0

Runtime Versions:

AIR 1.5

Authenticates a user.

Listen for the authenticationComplete and authenticationError events to determine the outcome of the authentication attempt. Multiple authenticate() calls are queued. The AuthenticationCompleteEvent object dispatched for the authenticationComplete event contains contains an authentication token that your application can save.

You can use a saved authentication token, or a token downloaded by another means, to establish an authenticated session with the media rights server in the future. To establish a session using a token, call the DRMManager setAuthenticationToken() method. The properties of the token, such as expiration date, are determined by the settings of the server that generates the token.

Important: The authenticate() method will not succeed when a user's Internet connection passes through a proxy server requiring authentication. Although such users are not able to preload a DRM voucher that requires authentication, your application can obtain the voucher by begininning playback and using the NetStream setAuthenticationCredentials() method to log the user into both the proxy and the media rights servers. Once the voucher has been obtained, the user can view the content offline (as long as the license represented by the voucher allows offline playback).

Parameters

	`serverURL:String` — The URL of a media rights server that can provide a voucher for viewing protected content

	`domain:String` — A domain on the server (not a network or Internet domain name)

	`username:String` — The user account name

	`password:String` — The user account password

loadVoucher

()

method

public function loadVoucher(contentData:DRMContentData, setting:String):void

Language Version:

ActionScript 3.0

Runtime Versions:

AIR 1.5

Loads a voucher from a media rights server or the local voucher cache.

The voucher is loaded according to the setting parameter:

LoadVoucherSetting.FORCE_REFRESH: The voucher is always downloded from the media rights server.
LoadVoucherSetting.LOCAL_ONLY: The voucher is only loaded from the local cache.
LoadVoucherSetting.ALLOW_SERVER: The voucher is loaded from the local cache, if possible, but downloaded from the server otherwise.

The LoadVoucherSetting class defines string constants to use as values for the setting parameter.

When the voucher is successfully loaded, the DRMManager dispatches a DRM status event. Your application can begin playback as soon as the voucher is loaded. The loaded voucher is available in the voucher property of the dispatched DRMStatusEvent object. You can use this voucher object to display the associated media rights information to the user.

If a voucher cannot be loaded from the media rights server, then a DRM error event is dispatched. The errorID property of the dispatched DRMErrorEvent object indicates the reason for the failure. Common causes of failure include attempting to connect to the FMRMS server when the user is offline and attempting to load a voucher when the user is not logged in. Your application can respond to these errors and take corrective action. For example, if authentication credentials are required to download the voucher, you can prompt the user for their account user name and password, call the DRMManager authenticate() method, and then attempt to load the voucher again.

If a voucher cannot be obtained from the local cache and the localOnly setting is used, then a DRMErrorEvent is not dispatched. Instead, a DRM status event is dispatched. The detail property of this DRMStatusEvent object is still DRM.voucherObtained, but the voucher property is null.

Parameters

	`contentData:DRMContentData` — The DRMContentData object from a DRM-protected media file

	`setting:String` — Determines whether the voucher is retrieved from the local cache or the media rights server

resetDRMVouchers

()

method

public function resetDRMVouchers():void

Language Version:

ActionScript 3.0

Runtime Versions:

AIR 1.5

Deletes all locally cached digital rights management (DRM) voucher data.

The application must download the required vouchers again for the user to be able to access encrypted content. Calling this function is equivalent to calling Netstream.resetDRMVouchers().

Throws

IOError — The voucher data cannot be deleted.

flash.net.NetStream.resetDRMVouchers()

setAuthenticationToken

()

method

public function setAuthenticationToken(serverUrl:String, domain:String, token:ByteArray):void

Language Version:

ActionScript 3.0

Runtime Versions:

AIR 1.5

Sets the authentication token to use for communication with the specified server and domain.

Authentication tokens are available from the token property of the DRMAuthenticationCompleteEvent object dispatched after a successful call to the authenticate() method. The token is cached automatically for the session, but you can use the setAuthenticationToken() method to manage tokens directly.

Setting a token overwrites any existing cached token for the server and domain. Set the token parameter to null to clear the cached token.

Parameters

	`serverUrl:String` — The URL of the media rights server

	`domain:String` — The domain on the media rights server

	`token:ByteArray` — The authentication token

Event Detail

authenticationComplete

Runtime Versions:

AIR 1.5

The DRMManager dispatches a DRMAuthenticationCompleteEvent object when the user is authenticated by the media rights server after a call to the authenticate() method.

The string constant to use for the authentication complete event in the type parameter when adding and removing event listeners.

authenticationError

Event

Event Object Type: flash.events.DRMAuthenticationErrorEvent
property DRMAuthenticationErrorEvent.type = flash.events.DRMAuthenticationErrorEvent.AUTHENTICATION_ERROR

Language Version:

ActionScript 3.0

Runtime Versions:

AIR 1.5

The DRMManager dispatches a DRMAuthenticationErrorEvent object when the user is not authenticated by the media rights server after a call to the authenticate() method.

The string constant to use for the authentication error event in the type parameter when adding and removing event listeners.

loadVoucherComplete

Event

Event Object Type: flash.events.DRMStatusEvent
property DRMStatusEvent.type = flash.events.DRMStatusEvent.LOAD_VOUCHER_COMPLETE

Language Version:

ActionScript 3.0

Runtime Versions:

AIR 1.5

The DRMManager dispatches a DRMStatusEvent object when a requested voucher is obtained from the media rights server.

loadVoucherError

Event

Event Object Type: flash.events.DRMErrorEvent
property DRMErrorEvent.type = flash.events.DRMErrorEvent.LOAD_VOUCHER_ERROR

Language Version:

ActionScript 3.0

Runtime Versions:

AIR 1.5

The DRMManager dispatches a DRMErrorEvent object when a requested voucher cannot be obtained from the media rights server.

Note: When an attempt to load a voucher from the local voucher cache (using the localOnly as the source parameter) fails, a DRMErrorEvent object is NOT dispatched. Instead, a DRMStatusEvent object with a voucher property set to null is dispatched.
