Microsoft Smooth Streaming Client 2.0

This section provides an introduction to application development based on the Microsoft Smooth Streaming Client 2.0 API and the Microsoft® Silverlight® 5 SDK. Applications use the Microsoft.Web.Media.SmoothStreaming namespace with Silverlight and supported Web browsers. The SmoothStreamingMediaElement class supports Silverlight applications that are capable of playback and control of Smooth Streaming data.

Smooth Streaming Client includes support for Windows Phone. The phone icon in the API reference identifies members of classes in the Microsoft.Web.Media.SmoothStreaming namespace that are available for Windows Phone development.

Developers who have worked with Silverlight will find the code scenarios in this section familiar. Applications implement the user interface in extensible application markup language (XAML) and application logic in corresponding code-behind pages.

For more information about encoding Smooth Streaming media files, see IIS Media Services. You can download Smooth Streaming HD sample content in order to run the examples in this documentation.

The following topics contain examples that will help you set up a development environment and experiment with basic code scenarios used by SmoothStreamingMediaElement and supported by the Microsoft.Web.Media.SmoothStreaming namespace.
