Yes, I am planning to use a basic media element.
I tried code below, but it basically just showed a blank screen. I
tried a couple of things like AutoPlay = true / false
I haven't had time to look at it again, but was mostly wondering if I
was on the right track.
Cheers.

m_mediaStreamSource = MediaStreamSourceFactory.Create(melMain, new
Uri("http://mydomain.com.au/Big_Buck_Bunny/Big Buck

...
melMain.SetSource(m_mediaStreamSource);
melMain.Position = TimeSpan.Zero;
melMain.Play();

Hey Ross,
Is the MediaElement in it's raw form no good?
The basic process is (and from my research it's not particularly well
documented at this stage) is that you need to take the MediaStreamSource
class (cannt remember its name) from the AdaptiveStreaming.dll and use
it to load the video from your server.
I know I'm being terribly vague I'm sorry, I've done this once before
but I cannot for the life of me find the sample code.

Subject: Adaptive streaming
Hi there,
I was wondering if anyone has implemented a custom media player using
adaptive streaming in a SL client? I have the IIS side up and running,
and have deployed a test page using a player generated by Expression
encoder. It performs beautifully on a hosted virtual server in the
wild, although we haven't done any load testing yet.
My requirement is that I have to show streaming video, but where the
user doesn't have control over playing / pausing ... , therefore I don't
want to show the normal player style UI. The video will be run in full
screen when the user first hits a screen then will fade and keep running
in the background.
I haven't found a player that doesn't have a UI or lets me hide the UI.
Eg http://www.openvideoplayer.com/ looks good but I couldn't work out
how to hide the UI.
I found the source code for one of the players -> C:\Program
Files\Microsoft Expression\Encoder 2\Templates\en\SL2Standard\Source and
figured out roughly how it works. The key is a project/dll
AdaptiveStreaming.dll that does the hard work.
I referenced AdapativeStreaming.dll and wired it up how I expected but
it didn't work on my first attempt. I haven't had time to go back and
look at it further, and don't expect you guys to debug my app.
I am looking for advice :
1. Does anyone know of a player I can use that has no UI or the UI
can be hidden?
2. Or, am I on the right track using the Encoder's
AdaptiveStreaming library?
3. If the answer to 2 is Yes, Is it legal for me to use the
AdaptiveStreaming library? I expect so, given the source code is
distributed but thought I would ask.
Cheers.
Ross
