Network camera view with Silverlight 2.0

03-17-2009 10:43 AM |

I'm developing a Silverlight 2.0 app to view live broadcasts from ip cameras.

The problem is that i actually don't know what streaming types Silverlight support.

I know that almost every commercial ip cameras use mpeg-4,h.264, and m-jpeg, never WMV

 Does anybody knows if it will work on silverlight 2.0?

Thanks!

I'm not sure about anything but I hope we will get h.264 at Mix'09.

Unfortunately, note that 3.0 doesn't even have a GoLive license yet.

 Well, I wish it will be during this year! I can wait a little more.
