Need Silverlight Browser Control

I am trying to embed a video on a website. The website cannot host .xap files because the bandwidth is too expensive. For security reasons, the website does not allow iframe or .html so the traditional, src="http://silverlight.services.live.com/invoke/10xxx/Test/iframe.html" will not work.

And free hosting servers or sites like Google do not have the MIME type for .xap supported, or IIS does not recognize reading a .xap application and reads it as .zip.

Is there a Silverlight Browser Control that would allow me to play silverlight apps from my streaming account, and appear as embedded video?

Love you too,

IIS can definately be configured to serve XAP content

Here are some good instructions for configuring IIS to serve up Silverlight applications.

So much love out there ...Thank you for the link. But doesn't this mean I have to tell the places I am trying to host my file on that they must configure their IIS settings to serve up Silverlight applications? So far their response has been "we do not do this because we do not support Silverlight applications."

I guess if you're planning on using silverlight you should find a host that supports it. Once you can host it in one place then other websites can point to it by using some sort of object tag I believe. Or, you could find one place just for hosting your xap then point your main website to that i suppose... but yes someone somewhere has to server up the xap unfortunately.
