Silverlight streaming from windows media server

Hi All,

 I am new to Silverlight related technologies. Does silverlight 2.0 support audio/video streaming from windows media server (on windows 2003 server) ? If so, what protocols are supported (rtsp or http). Did someone tried this ? Can you share the sample code for streaming media from windows media server ?

I tried multiple times but I get following error:

Silverlight error message

Error code: 4001

Error Type: MediaError

Message: AG_E_NETWORK_ERROR

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Dipak

Dear kamark

I have got the same problem with you both.
Not only the mms from the Windows Media Services but also the common mms will show the error messages.
Maybe the next version will fix this problem.

YOU HAVE TO USE HTTP NOT MMS .SILVERLIGHT DOESN'T SUPPORT MMS .

IF YOU enabled http protocol on wms .and then it should work .

but one last thing before you try it on silverlight player try to check it on media player .

Dear dekus

In fact, Silverlight supports MMS.
At least in version 1, I can use the MediaElement object to play videos coming from mms.
I do'nt think this function will be removed from Silverlight 2.
