!!! First release of VideoLan DotNet Silverlight 5 compatible library is out !!! Test it
Here !!
Project Description
Vlc.DotNet libraries provide the audio/video control of VideoLan on WinForm (.Net 2.0) or
Windows Presentation Foundation (.Net 3.5) and Silverlight 5. Now you can stream audio/video in C# or VB.Net.
To start a project with Vlc.DotNet, download & install
VLC media player. You don’t need to add the files (libvlc.dll, libvlccore.dll) in the output compilation directory, you have to set the "VlcContext.LibVlcDllsPath" property , "VlcContext.LibVlcPluginsPath" property of the VlcContext and initialize
it.
See : C#
Form example &
Wpf example.
To use Wpf control you must use the nightly build of VideoLan because au must use version >= 1.2 of it and because it is not out yet.

Format Compatibility
Same as Vlc. See here

- Hi everybody, I've got a very good news... After few month of works on differents projects, I'm resuming the VideoLan DotNet project. And the most great news is that the new wpf, and also the winform, control work very well. But be patient...
- Changes since last version :
-
- Rewrite source (yet another time :-)
- Bug correction of AccessViolationexception on Winform
- Bug correction of "MDA Warning"
- Remove password of assembly signing key
- Why not a In-memory snapshot
- Compatibility with all verion of videolan >= 1.1.0
- Enable to define the libvlc.dll / libvlccore.dll and plugins directories. They could be on differents locations and also stay in the default vlc directory.
- Enable overlay for WPF control
- If you have any suggestions, I could put them in the future version. I think I'll put my current dev. version in the beginning of May, so I'll need some people to test this version when I put it on codeplex.
Don't worry, be happy for the next version :)
