Questions about streaming before implementation

10-28-2009 10:43 AM |

 Hi all,

 

I would like to implementing a video streaming in a webpage with silverlight.

Silverlight side, i have a datagrid wich purposes several videos on a server.

When i click on a video, silverlight streams my video using a WCF service.

 

But, i have one problem :

- my videos are in avi format.

 

So, is it possible to encode my video, get the stream and return it by WCF and play it in streaming in Silverlight (so, when a byte is encoded, it is directly transmitted to Silverlight to be streamed) ?

 

I tried to encode with the Microsoft Encoder SDK (in Microsoft Expression 3) and attach to EncodeProgress event but, i don't know how to get the stream.

 

Can you help me ?

 

Regards,

Guillaume
