The DurationElement class is especially useful for creating delays in the presentation of a media composition. For example, the following code presents a sequence of videos, separated from each other by five-second delays.
var sequence:SerialElement = new SerialElement();
sequence.addChild(new VideoElement(new URLResource("http://www.example.com/video1.flv")));
sequence.addChild(new DurationElement(5));
sequence.addChild(new VideoElement(new URLResource("http://www.example.com/ad.flv")));
sequence.addChild(new DurationElement(5));
sequence.addChild(new VideoElement(new URLResource("http://www.example.com/video2.flv")));
// Assign the SerialElement to the MediaPlayer.
player.media = sequence;
The following example presents a sequence of rotating banners. The delays separating the appearances of the banners are created with DurationElements. In addition, the images themselves are wrapped in DurationElements to enable them to support a duration.
// The first banner does not appear for five seconds.
// Each banner is shown for 20 seconds.
// There is a 15-second delay between images.
var bannerSequence:SerialElement = new SerialElement();
bannerSequence.addChild(new DurationElement(5));
bannerSequence.addChild(new DurationElement(20,new ImageElement(new URLResource("http://www.example.com/banner1.jpg")));
bannerSequence.addChild(new DurationElement(15));
bannerSequence.addChild(new DurationElement(20,new ImageElement(new URLResource("http://www.example.com/banner2.jpg")));
bannerSequence.addChild(new DurationElement(15));
bannerSequence.addChild(new DurationElement(20,new ImageElement(new URLResource("http://www.example.com/banner3.jpg")));
