Krishnan Sent: Tuesday, 25 March 2008 9:12 AM To: listserver@ozSilverlight.com Subject: [OzSilverlight] Question on Media control and encoding Hi all, I have a couple of Silverlight questions from a client: 1. The first involves the Silverlight Media control. He has created an ASX file with a list of media files that needs to be played and uses the Media control to play it on the page. When the next track button is pressed in the media control, it actually just skips a few seconds (rather than skipping to the next track). The client wants it to skip to the next track and hasn't been able to figure out how to do it. 2. While using encorder.exe, they are sometimes getting a Cannot find Codec message when trying to convert mp4 files and even some wmv's. However, they convert OK in the GUI. It is only failing while using it from command line. Any ideas/advice on how to fix these problems would be much appreciated.

Has anyone found a good walkthrough of laying Silverlight over the top of HTML? My ultimate goal would be to put a Javascript tag into my blog page which then runs my Silverlight app/site over the top of my Blog. Am using wordpress. I've not seen it anywhere yet (I'm sure its out there) but hey, maybe I'm the first to think of it? (haha nah...) I'm going to make the Silverlight app expand and cover the blog while you are using the Silverlight component, and then shrink back to a sidepanel when using the Blog. So far my attempts of have put the Silverlight at the top, and the HTML comes after it on the page. cheers, Stephen --- OzSilverlight.com - to unsubscribe from this list, send a message back to the list with 'unsubscribe' as the subject.

RE: [OzSilverlight] Custom print-ad creation with Silverlight
That is awesome. Sorry we weren't much help. Shane From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Craig Dunn Sent: Thursday, 20 November 2008 3:04 PM To: listserver@ozsilverlight.com Subject: Re: [OzSilverlight] Custom print-ad creation with Silverlight I prototyped the Ad-Builder UI back in January in about a week, for budget approval. 3 person team started in March - prototype was discarded and rebuilt. It's been in testing for a little while before release. Xaml-Jpeg and XPS-PDF were two of the chunkier tasks: the first due to memory issues and the second due to testing with our printers - colour correction; greyscale/newsprint printing and many other issues arose along the way. Adobe originally told us we _could_ use XPS2PDFLib via their 'LiveCycle' product, then turned around and said it wasn't supported - this added at least two months (probably more) to the project in my opinion as we searched-for and implemented an alternative solution (NiXPS). Now on to Silverlight 2.0... On Thu, Nov 20, 2008 at 2:47 PM, Jordan Knight [EMAIL PROTECTED]mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi Craig, This looks pretty sweet.

The Help Videos http://diyads.com.au/DIY/DIY030.aspx show how it works, if you don't feel like taking it for a test-drive (sic)... Although the Silverlight 'Ad Builder' is kinda cool; what is more interesting is the behind-the-scenes processing from Xaml 'templates' to Jpeg previews using WPF; then transforming the XPS to PDF snippets which are later stitched together into the actual magazine pages that are sent to press. Note that using WPF classes on the server to render Xaml-to-Jpeg is 'not supported' but it seems to be possible if you are willing to play around a bit to work around the possible memory-leak issues... Adobe was openly hostile when asked for assistance with this project (tried to sell us Flash, of course, and *refused* to provide any tech-support to assist in converting XPS to PDF, despite having the XPS2PDFLib component that can do it) and Microsoft wasn't much help either. We found NiXPS (http://nixps.com/) to be a great product with very responsive support staff - highly recommend their product if you are interested in XPS/PDF print solutions.
