On the Flash client side, how do I detect when the server purposely closes the TCP connection to its video stream? I'll need to take action when this occurs - maybe attempt to restart the video or display an error message. Currently, the connection closing and the connection being slow look the same to me. The NetStream object ushers a NetStream.Play.Stop event in both cases. When the connection is slow, it usually recovers by itself within seconds. I wish to only take action when the connection is closed, not when it is slow.

Here's how my general setup looks like. It's the basic NetConnection->NetStream->Video setup.

this.vidConnection = new NetConnection();
this.vidConnection.addEventListener(AsyncErrorEvent.ASYNC_ERROR, this.connectionAsyncError);
this.vidConnection.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, this.connectionIoError);
this.vidConnection.addEventListener(NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS, this.connectionNetStatus);
this.vidConnection.connect(null);
this.vidStream = new NetStream(this.vidConnection);
this.vidStream.addEventListener(AsyncErrorEvent.ASYNC_ERROR, this.streamAsyncError);
this.vidStream.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, this.streamIoError);
this.vidStream.addEventListener(NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS, this.streamNetStatus);
this.vid.attachNetStream(this.vidStream);

None of the error events fire when the server closes the TCP or when the connection freezes up. Only the NetStream.Play.Stop event fires. Here's a trace of what happens from initially playing the video to the TCP connection closing.

connection net status = NetConnection.Connect.Success
