    It took me a half day to figure this out.  It falls under that category of seeing what I wanted rather than seeing what was actually there.

    My eyes refused to "see" the following statement:

    In this case, you must create a web site

    The solution to my problem is this:  When you create a Silverlight application you are presented with two choices, 1) Create a web site to run it in or 2) Create an html test page to run it in.

    I was running in an html test page and so it wouldn't work.  When I finally threw that code away and made a web site to test my code in then it all started working (using either http://localhost:nnnn/whatever/test.wmv or http://mywebsite.com/whatever/test.wmv)

    Software life cycle:

    Requirements: fix this; Design: break it down; Devel: get it working then fix it; Testing: if it ain't broke don't fix it; Help: it's broke, here's how to fix it; Sales: it will be fixed in the next version.
