    SilverlightShow Page for all Silverlight and Windows Phone 7 (WP7) things on TwitterMohammad Elsheimy explains how to use video markers in Silverlight to set captions/subtitles for a video.

    Source: Just Like a Magic
    Markers are text annotations embedded at certain points in a media file. They help you in several cases. For example, you might use markers to set captions or subtitles for a video file, or maybe you use it to identify particular points in a media file so you can play the media starting at particular points.

    In another article, Mohammad Elsheimy presents a brief introduction to the new features in media stack in Silverlight 5.

    Source: Just Like a Magic

    Silverlight 5 has undergone few changes in the media stack: 

        • Better Battery Management:
    Less battery when playing media. Plus, no screensaver in the full-screen mode. 
        • Remote Control Support:
    Now you can control the media being played in Silverlight 5 using a remote control. This feature is currently not available in the Beta. [...]

    Mike Taulty is experimenting with the new “XNA” SoundEffect and SoundEffectInstance classes in Silverlight 5.

    As you’d expect, Silverlight can already play audio and has been able to since day one via the MediaElement class which doubles up for also playing video.

    If I remember rightly, audio support is for mp3, WMA7, 8 and 9 and also for AAC but does not include WAV files. MediaElement is pretty easy to use but if you’ve got requirements like; 

        1. Multiple media elements playing back on loops 
        2. Multiple media elements playing back at different volumes 
        3. Multiple media elements playing back at different pitches

    SilverlightShow Page for all Silverlight and Windows Phone 7 (WP7) things on TwitterJoel Ivory Johnson has a code sample that handles streaming directly to IsolatedStorage.

    Source: J2i.Net

    Last week I posted a sample voice recorder on CodeProject. The application would buffer the entire recording in memory before writing it to a file. A rather astute reader asked me what would happen if the user let the recording go long enough to fill up memory. The answer to that question is the application would crash due to an exception being trhown when it fails to allocate more memory and all of the recordingwould be lost.

    Are you interested in creating games for Windows Phone 7 but don't have any XNA experience?
    Then sign up for a 3-day Online Training Course delivered by CompletIT and Peter Kuhn! Read the course agenda!
    Take advantage of the early-bird promo price until May 20th!

    This article is part 8 of the series "XNA for Silverlight developers":

    What would a game be without sound effects and music? Naturally Windows Phone 7 offers enough possibilities to add a rich acoustic experience to your apps and games. However, due to the nature of the device, there are some things to keep in mind. Even with the lack of real multi-tasking, you don't have the whole platform at your disposal exclusively. The user may already listen to music from the media library when they start your game, for example. In addition, a mobile device may also be used in an environment where noise is not welcome.

    SilverlightShow Page for all Silverlight and Windows Phone 7 (WP7) things on TwitterNick Gravelyn talks about the changes in MediaPlayer, the interface for playing music on Windows Phone, that can affect your applications.

    Source: Nick Gravelyn's Blog

    The short is that you are no longer allowed to set the Volume or IsMuted properties when the active media source is the Zune media library and any time you switch between library music and title music, you must reset any properties on MediaPlayer you care about. These changes were made to ensure applications didn’t alter the user’s music playback experience in a way that the native Zune media player cannot reverse (there is no UI in the Zune media player for music-specific volume or a mute control).

    SilverlightShow Page for all Silverlight and Windows Phone 7 (WP7) things on TwitterDen Delimarsky demonstrates how to play existing media content on WP7 using the MediaElement control.

    Source: DZone

    Ultimately, this article started from a simple question - how is it possible to play a media file on Windows Phone 7? There are two ways to play existing media content. The developer has to either use the system player (given that the media content is stored in the media library), or use the MediaElement control.

    MediaElement might be a bit tricky, but it's not that hard as it seems.
