I need some help streaming audio inside the browser, on a Nokia Lumia 800, running Windows Mobile 7.5.
I currently am using JW Player (flash version) on the desktop browser, to stream an rtmp:// audio provided to me, and that works great. I also have an mms:// version of the same audio stream provided, but I cannot get it to play in the browser on the phone. I have tried setting the mode for JW Player to html5, but it doesn't work.
All the documentation on streaming audio on the windows phone seems to deal with native app development, but that's not an option for this at the moment.
Thanks for any help in advance.
Sorry, but neither the RTMP or MMS protocols are supported in HTML5 or Windows Phone (all versions), either natively or in the browser. You won't find support for either of these protocols even with a native app in WP7.x. WP8 opens up the possibilty of this functionality in 3rd party apps.

does Anybody know if it is possible to capture the media you are playing on windows phone, so you can stream it to another source,
Just like apple does with airplay
No, it is not possible to write a 3rd party app that can capture audio or video from other apps and stream it somewhere else.
Airplay on iOS is a system level service that apps can use.
The closest thing Windows Phone has is Play To, which allows you to pick existing media on the phone (pictures, music, video, etc) and share it to a compatible device. Currently, this technology isn't available to developers.
Sorry for the question, i don't have windows mobile to test. I am trying to develop a live internet radio application.
The format they stream is in m3u8, i have got SDKs for all other mobile platorms but not for windows phone.
Is there any SDK available for playing internet radio or will the m3u8 format of media supports in default.
Please suggest me.
Thanks in advance.
By default - no. However, you could use the HTTP Live Streaming SDK.
You can try Windows Phone Streaming Media which supports both Windows Phone 8 and Windows Phone 7, here is a blog post about it
There is also player framework
Player Framework
We're building a LIVE Smooth Streaming WP7 App.It works perfectly on the emulator, but not on device (shows up blank).
We are also trying smf player for streaming on WP7 but every time we are getting a blank screen on player. Its only work on Emulator.
Though there is no error being thrown.
How i can apply live streaming on my windows phone not on emulator.
looking for your responce
Does your streaming source contain multi-resolution tracks?
This kind of problem may appear when testing on a WP8 Emulator and then deploying the app to a WP7 device. Specially if the WP7 device is a first-generation device, like HTC HD7.
Basically this happens because the WP8 emulator and Wp8 devices do support multi-resolution, but old devices do not support multi-resolution tracks. You can read more here: http://blog.supaywasi.com/2013/01/smooth-streaming-multi-resolution-support-for-windows-phone/
So, basically you have to handle the ManifestReady event on your WP7 app and RestrictTracks to only tracks of the same resolution.
For WP8 devices you will not need to this.
I am using this media player so that I can play mp3 audio files on a website and they will work on all browsers and smartphones - http://mediaelementjs.com/
However I have just been told that it is not working on Windows Phone. What's the deal with windows phone and it's built in browser?? It's pretty bad form if this plugin even supports IE6 yet it doesn't work with Windows Phone.
This does supports Windows Phone. Just scroll down on its website and you'll see a support chart.
This plugin uses Flash to polyfill HTML5 video tag. So it supports IE6 but not browsers without both HTML5 and Flash support. Which means it can support WP7.5 (IE9 mobile) but not WP7.0 (IE7 mobile).
I'm developing an Application for Windows phone 7 using SilverLight. Now I'm using http:// to Stream videos in windows phone, but my requirement is to stream videos using mms:// URL in my windows phone 7 Application.
I am not aware of the mms:// protocol, can you please tell me whether is it possible to stream video files using mms:// url in windows phone 7.
This protocol is not currently supported for third party development on WP7.
