Can I play xesc file on Silverlight?


It seems very weird and I can't understand it,

Why xesc, the output of Expression Encoder 4 Screen Capture, can't be play on Silverlight??

Why ScreenCaptureVideoProfile codec is always unknown?

doesn't the left hand know what the right hand is doing??


Solution

  • Answer from Microsoft Expression Encoder team

    Being optimized for screen capture, the XESC codec has dependencies that are platform dependant and thus doesn't really fit in the Silverlight model.
