How to play MPEG-TS (transport stream) from WPF and Silverlight

Question

I've tried MediaElement with a .ts file - its not interested (HRESULT: 0xC00D11B1).

The TS file plays with WMP no problems (Cannot seem to play it in graphedt though?)

I thought MediaElement was supposed to support what WMP supported?

Update: This is on Windows 7 by the way (apparently it has a slightly different media stack if that makes a difference, WMF etc)

Answer 1

Jeremiah Morrill is your man - http://wpfmediakit.codeplex.com.

This will not work in SL but will definitely play them on WPF proper.

Answer 2

WPFMediaKit does work but you need to install a MPEG-TS "source filter" to allow DirectShow to read from the transport stream container.

I used TSFileSource.

Also be careful on x64 vs x86... so far I have only managed to get it working when using all x86 components.

Answer 3

Hello,

I'm stuck in a similar problem. I'm using MediaUriElement from WpfMediaKit to render video managing their opacities and zIndexes, and it works just fine. However i cant render any video streams (mms for instance). (I tried VideoMixingRender9 and EnhancedVideorenderer with no success)

Can you help me?

One more thing: In Windows XP i cant render anything, can you help me with this too?
