MediaFailed Event
Occurs when there is a media related error.
| XAML |
<object MediaFailed="eventhandlerFunction" .../>
|
| Scripting |
[token = ]object.AddEventListener("MediaFailed", eventhandlerFunction)
|
AddEventListener Parameters
| token | integer A token that is returned from the function, which you can optionally retain as a variable. If you intend to call RemoveEventListener to remove the handler, you will need this token. |
| eventhandlerFunction | object The name of your event handler function as it is defined in script. When used as an AddEventListener parameter, quotes around the function name are not required. See Remarks. |
Event Handler Parameters
| sender | object Identifies the object that invoked the event. |
| eventArgs | object This parameter is always set to null. |
Remarks
Conditions in which this event can occur include:
- File not found.
- Invalid file format - unrecognized or unsupported media format.
- Unknown media error during playback.
Setting a cross-domain URI for Source will either succeed, or will not return a valid status for any failure. An error is thrown on the SetValue method call for setting "Source" in this case.
You can also add handlers in script using a quoted string for the event handler name:
object.AddEventListener("MediaFailed", "eventhandlerFunction")
This syntax also returns a token; however, the token is not an absolute requirement for removing the handler, in cases where the handler was added by using a quoted string. For details, see RemoveEventListener.
