StartPreview or StartRecording from video clips or URLs

Previewing or recording video clips

It is possible to preview or record a video clip (or a streaming URL) by invoking StartPreview or StartRecording as follows:

• set VideoSource = vs_VideoFileOrURL

• set VideoSource_FileOrUrl = "http://.....YourStreamingUrl..." or ("mms://...yourStreamingUrl....")

• (optionally) invoke SetAuthentication (ap_StreamingUrl, "...username...", "...password...")

• then invoke StartPreview or StartRecording

Authentication

If an authentication is required to connecto a streaming url, there are 2 ways to set an username and password required:

• either by invoking SetAuthentication (at_StreamingUrl, "...username...", "...password..." ) before invoking OpenPlayer,

• either through the OnAuthenticationNeeded event that will occur when connecting if SetAuthentication has not been invoked yet.
