WP8.1 - MediaElement - Detecting State for Stopped

Question

I tried to use MediaElement to play a sound, and use its event CurrentStateChanged, to view the various play states.

In particular, I need to see when it is stopped, so another source can be queued.  But in the following code, the only events I see generated report:  Opening, Playing, Paused.  And then the sound is fully over.  No Stopped ever appears.

What am I missing? I need to bind to it.

XAML

        <MediaElement x:Name="mplayer"  Source="Assets/test.wav" AutoPlay="True" CurrentStateChanged="MediaElement_CurrentStateChanged" >         
        </MediaElement>

CODE BEHIND

        private void MediaElement_CurrentStateChanged(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
        {
            Debug.WriteLine(mplayer.CurrentState.ToString());          
        }

p.s. if I detect the Paused condition, then command a mplayer.Stop(), a stop is generated. But not normally.

Answer 1

I couldn't reproduce the issue you are facing. Can you test with this simple sample app?
