Same here!!!

But I found that you can use video sprite as an alternative. Then the problem solved, since you can easily destroy a sprite.

I'm getting this error also. Can someone explain what the above poster means by ''use video sprite as an alternative'?

Thanks

You can't destroy a Video while it's still being used as a texture by an Image or Sprite.

You should save a reference from `addToWorld` (which is the Image using the video) then, if you want, destroy the Image first and then the Video.

var video = game.add.video('video', 0.5, 0.5);

video.play(true);

var videoImage = video.addToWorld(0, 0);

game.time.events.add(3000, function() {
    videoImage.destroy();
    video.destroy();
});

Ok, if anyone stumbles across this, the problem was that I was trying to call destroy() on the initial object reference. You can call it on what is returned from 'addToWorld()'

EG:

var mov = game.add.video('myVideo');
var txt = mov.addToWorld(0, 0);

 mov.onComplete.add(function(obj){
     txt.destroy();
 });
