Adobe Flex AIR download videos in Android device

I want to download a set of video files to a default folder path in an Android device and then have access to the path and files. The FileReference class does not support this features. Is there another way? Thank you.

I dont use file reference at all. I use a Loader to download the file. I then create a new File object with the path where I want to save the file, and use a FileSteam to write the data from the loader to the file.

var req:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url);
loader = new URLLoader();
loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, handler);
loader.dataFormat = URLLoaderDataFormat.BINARY;
loader.load(req);

function handler(e:Event):void{
    var file:File = new File(path);
    var stream:FileSteam();
    steam.open(file, FileMode.WRITE);
    steam.writeBytes(loader.data);
    steam.close();
}

something like this should accomplish what you are looking for. I wrote this code from memory so it may not be exactly correct but should be good enough to get you going. Make sure you put this in a try/catch since file and filesteam both throw exceptions
