Question

I’m trying to play a small video file in my windows phone application. Is pretty basic

 void StartMediaPlayer()
    {
        MediaPlayerLauncher mediaPlayerLauncher = new MediaPlayerLauncher();

        mediaPlayerLauncher.Media = new Uri("/Assets/video/video1.wmv", UriKind.Relative);
        mediaPlayerLauncher.Location = MediaLocationType.Install;

        mediaPlayerLauncher.Controls = MediaPlaybackControls.All;
        mediaPlayerLauncher.Orientation = MediaPlayerOrientation.Landscape;

        mediaPlayerLauncher.Show();
    }

i call this void on image tap event, and this is what happend

the debugger show that the error is here: mediaPlayerLauncher.Show();

Answer 1

if some has the same problem, just a heads up the files should be in main directory

mediaPlayerLauncher.Media = new Uri("video1.wmv", UriKind.Relative);
