How does one play GIFs on Windows Phone 8.1? I tried setting the Source property of an Image element to a GIF file, but it only loads the first frame. MediaElement did not seem to work either. I had the same result in a Store app as well as a WP Silverlight project. Does WP 8.1 natively support GIFs? If not, are there any third-party libraries out there that do the work?
P.S. Ideally, I'd like to not have to use the WebView control to load GIFs.
How can I add media files to library folders of WP emulator so that I can list them in my program?
The Windows Phone 8.1 SDK allows you to use a folder on your dev machine to simulate an SD card for the emulator. If you put a bunch of media files in that folder before "inserting" it into the emulator, they will get picked up and added to the appropriate libraries.
Note that it can take a few seconds for media indexer to wake up and go through the content but you can easily check on its progress in the appropriate built-in app (eg. Music or Photos).
You can find this feature in the emulator's Additional Tools window:
you need to use SaveSong from MediaLibrary
have a look at this
One of the new features of the Windows Phone 8 SDK is the ability to save(add) songs to the phone's MediaLibrary.
Try this out for Songs.
for photos

Good day all.
Can i show/hide UVC (Universal Volume Control) from my code?
Maybe any API, for example Device.ShowUVC() ?
Up to Windows Phone Mango SDK, you cannot ask the OS to show the volume control UI through code.
You can have some action on this UI through Microsoft.Phone.BackgroundAudio namespace, when your app play sound in background (ie. set if the UI show play/pause/shuffle buttons via EnabledPlayerControls enumeration).
Is it possible to create a live tile inside our windows phone 7 application? I am asking the similar functionality as in AppHub app "...i'm a WP7!".
Please provide me input, how i can achieve this functionality?
Check out the HubTile control from the Silverlight Toolkit for Windows Phone over at codeplex.
Just be careful that it looks good and makes sense in your app - it's a very dynamic control and you can't see the Title of the control all the time.
I was wondering: does an AIR ActiveX Control exist? I want to load an SWF movie inside a Flash ActiveX controller, but the movie was created using Adobe Air and therefore it cannot load some of its dependencies.
I've seen an Air to .EXE wrapper somewhere around the internet, so I think it is possible somehow.
Any clues on this?
Thanks in advance!
