Silverlight includes support to play audio and video files.
It can play Windows Media Video (WMV), Windows Media Audio (WMA) and MP3 files.
Adding media to a page is as simple as adding a MediaElement to your markup and providing a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) to the media to play. The following example creates a MediaElement and sets its Source property to the URI of a video file. The MediaElement begins playing when the page loads.
<MediaElement x:Name=”mediaElement” Source=”Bear.wmv” Width=”250″ Height=”250″ />
We can control media playback by using the Play, Pause, and Stop methods of a MediaElement object.
