MediaElement.SetSource Method (Stream)

Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.

Sets the Source property using the supplied stream.

Namespace:  System.Windows.Controls
Assembly:  System.Windows (in System.Windows.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Sub SetSource ( _
    stream As Stream _
)

public void SetSource(
    Stream stream
)

Parameters

  • stream
    Type: System.IO.Stream
    A stream that contains a natively supported media source.

Remarks

Use this method rather than setting the Source to a URI for cases where you already have the media available as a stream. For instance, you might have preloaded media by calls to WebClient APIs and have them available as streams already. For details on this technique, see Downloading Content on Demand.
