NAME

FLV::Header - Flash video file data structure

METHODS

This is a subclass of FLV::Base.

$self->parse($fileinst)

Takes a FLV::File instance and extracts the FLV header from the file stream. This method throws exceptions if the stream is not a valid FLV v1.0 or v1.1 file. The interpretation is a bit stricter than other FLV parsers (for example FLVTool2).

There is no return value.

$self->serialize($filehandle)

Serializes the in-memory FLV header. If that representation is not complete, this throws an exception via croak(). Returns a boolean indicating whether writing to the file handle was successful.

$self->has_video()

Returns a boolean indicating if the FLV header predicts that video data is enclosed in the stream.

This value is not consulted internally.

$self->has_audio()

Returns a boolean indicating if the FLV header predicts that audio data is enclosed in the stream.

This value is not consulted internally.
