Annotation in RadMediaPlayer

[kalyan]

Hi,

I just want how to annotation in RadMediaPlayer. Earlier i was using simple SilverlIght Media element to accomplish this task, by putting a InkPresnter and setting the Media element as the VideoBrush of the Ink presenter. but this not working in RadMediaPlayer, because annotation should work only when the Video is in pause mode,When i put the RadMediaPlayer in a InkPresnter its controls(Play,Pause) are not working.
I just want a solution of this problem. Can any one help me from this Problem.

Thanks

Hi Kalyan,
Have you tried editting the ControlTemplate of RadMediaPlayer and putting the MediaElement that is there inside an InkPresenter? In the attachment you can find the current ControlTemplate of RadMediaPlayer.
Let me know how this works for you.

Hi,

Thanks for this template,  we already have this template as we purachased the full version of this product.  I have some problems regarding this MediaPlayer like i am not able to access the Buttons (Play,Pause) and the Slider  of the mediaPlayer because they are Private members. How can i disable or enable the above controls according to my requirement. Ex I have saved some annotation comments in my database . I am showing those comments on the Datagrid. And when i select a comment ,that particular position will be viewed on the MediaPlayer. Suppose i want to edit one comment, i want all my Buttons/Slider in disable mode.Please advise me regarding this requirement.

Thanks

Hi Kalyan,
Nevertheless the buttons are private fields, you can still obtain them via the root element in the ControlTemplate. Please, take a look at the piece of code bellow, as it shows how to access the visual elements from RadMediaPlayer's ControlTemplate:

public Page()
{
    InitializeComponent();
    Loaded += new RoutedEventHandler(Page_Loaded);
}

private void Page_Loaded(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
    radMediaPlayer1.Loaded += new RoutedEventHandler(RadMediaPlayer1_Loaded);
}

private void RadMediaPlayer1_Loaded(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
    Panel root = (Panel)VisualTreeHelper.GetChild(radMediaPlayer1, 0);
    Button stopButton = (Button)root.FindName("StopButton");
    stopButton.IsEnabled = false;
}

Unfortunately currently there is no other way to get the elements. This may be one of the directions in which we will extend the Media Player in the future versions.

If you have any additional questions, do not hesitate to contact us.
