How to convert Silverlight XAML to Resource dictionary in Silverlight 2

Question

I am looking for the quickest and easiest way to combine two silverlight projects. Once has controls all in Silverlight XAML the other is template driven and uses a template based on a Silverlight resource dictionary. I am looking for some advice and resources on the best and quickest way to do this.

One project is based on this:

Silverlight Image Slider

the other project is based on this:

Open Video Player

http://www.openvideoplayer.com/

I need to move the slider into the player, but the player uses a template and I just don't get how to merge the two as I do not understand resource dictionaries as they are applied to the player. We have completely gutted and made each proiject do what we want, but heck if I can figure out how to combine them.
