SilverLight deployable on CD?

We have a project that requires 2 modes of deployment: web and CD. Can the web version be easily repurposed to deploy via CD? If so:

1) How do we get around the usage of the downloader object that seems to require a web server? We need to download video, jpeg images and fonts.

2) Is there a way to install the SL plug-in locally via the CD?

We are assuming that the CD audience will have no internet connection.

Thanks.

Re: SilverLight deployable on CD?

1. For CD usage of content you have two options:

a. Not use te downloader object when you run from a CD (you can test this in your script and fork the code)

b. Install a mini web server application with your CD that will point to the CD as its root. In that case you will be able to use the same code. Note that Visual studio comes with such an application. In that case you will need to provide different solutions for Mac and Windows computers.

2. For the second question, at this point you can not get redistribution rights for the Silverlight runtime. It means that the CD will need to point to the web for the installation.
