How to play MP4 (H.264 video) in Silverlight 3 (or 4) from a URL?

Question

So I have some URL of an MP4 file. I want to develop a simple Silverlight application to play it.

How to do it? (Preferably with example code.)

Answer 1

The mp4 file you trying to play does not contains moov header. That way, the player need the complete file to start playing. I recomend that you run mp4box on the file to include moov headers.
