read/write
System.capabilities.hasAudioEncoder
Description
The Boolean hasAudioEncoder property indicates whether the Player can encode an audio stream (for example, coming from a microphone), normally for transmission to a server such as Macromedia Flash Communication Server MX (Comm Server). In the desktop version of Flash Player 6, hasAudioEncoder is always true, indicating that audio encoding is available. This does not guarantee, however, that the necessary hardware is present.
The corresponding server string for hasAudioEncoder is AE, with possible values of t (true) and f (false). See capabilities.serverString for details.
