Gah!! I found the problem and yes it was a stupid mistake. I forgot to remove the this.RootVisual = new Page(); at the end of my Application_Startup, the default one that's there. So essentially it was all working right except it was the loading the default page with no parameters. I'm using the paremeters to pass in the url so thats why it couldnt find the url.
kicking myself for not finding it a bit sooner but now I can move on! *bangs head against wall as punishment* cheers, Stephen On Sun, Feb 1, 2009 at 11:56 AM, .net noobie <[email protected]> wrote: > yes in the example it does, I just did it as a test to make sure I > remembered correctly > I also the same issues along time ago > > On Sun, Feb 1, 2009 at 8:36 AM, Stephen Price > <[email protected]>wrote: > >> Wouldn't that download the whole video and then set the source on >> completion? >> I want to stream it from the web server. >> I'll have a look at set source, thanks. >> On Sat, Jan 31, 2009 at 8:59 PM, .net noobie <[email protected]>wrote: >> >>> this is just a sample to show how I did a test.... >>> you might want to look at the "SetSource" >>> >>> SetSource(MediaStreamSource) This sets the source of a MediaElement to >>> a subclass of MediaStreamSource. >>> >>> SetSource(Stream) Sets the Source property using the supplied stream. >>> >>> >>> public partial class Page : UserControl >>> >>> { >>> >>> private WebClient wc; >>> >>> >>> >>> public Page() >>> >>> { >>> >>> InitializeComponent(); >>> >>> >>> >>> set1.Click += set1_Click; >>> >>> set2.Click += set2_Click; >>> >>> } >>> >>> >>> >>> private void set1_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e) >>> >>> { >>> >>> wc = new WebClient(); >>> >>> wc.OpenReadCompleted += wc_OpenReadCompleted; >>> >>> wc.OpenReadAsync(new Uri("media/one.wmv", UriKind.Relative)); >>> >>> } >>> >>> >>> >>> private void set2_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e) >>> >>> { >>> >>> wc = new WebClient(); >>> >>> wc.OpenReadCompleted += wc_OpenReadCompleted; >>> >>> wc.OpenReadAsync(new Uri("media/two.wmv", UriKind.Relative)); >>> >>> } >>> >>> >>> >>> private void wc_OpenReadCompleted(object sender, >>> OpenReadCompletedEventArgs e) >>> >>> { >>> >>> this.MediaPlayer.SetSource(e.Result); >>> >>> } >>> >>> } >>> >>> >>> >>> On Fri, Jan 30, 2009 at 9:05 PM, Stephen Price <[email protected] >>> > wrote: >>> >>>> Hey all, >>>> I'm going spare here.
