Can't play video in Silverlight

Question

Hi,

I've created a new player using the media encoder,

when I am trying to change the video url in the StartPlayer.js (under the get_mediainfo function) to something like the follow link:

http://switch3.castup.net/cunet/gm.asp?ClipMediaID=966752&ak=null&st=00:00:13.296&dr=00:10:57.487

I am getting an error: "Sys.InvalidOperationException: Unable to load media ..."

I even tried to use the escape on the link, but nothing helps.

 

please advice

Thanks ...

Answer 1

The video has to be compatible with Silverlight.  Is the video a WMV?  Also, your Silverlight currently needs to be the same protocol as your video file (e.g. https and https, or http and http.  can't mix http with https).

Answer 2

How can I know if my Silverlight is compatible?

I don't know if the video is WMV, I've got only the link, but even so, can Silverlight play only WMV file ?

btw, my Silverlight and the video are on the same protocol (http)

The documentation discusses what is supported as far as Media (see MediaElement).  I think that its WMV, WMA and MP3 but I dont' have it in front of me.
