Silverlight and Shoutcast!

Finally a solution!!!!!!!! How can we stream a shoutcast radio via a Silverlight application?

Well in 6 steps...

1. Open Expression Blend

2. Create a Project

3. Add a media element

4. Add the code below at the cs (or vb) file

public Page()
{
// Required to initialize variables
InitializeComponent();
this.Loaded += new RoutedEventHandler(Page_Loaded);
}

void Page_Loaded(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
try
{

myElem.Source = new Uri("http://mystation:port/;");
myElem.Play();
}
catch (Exception ex)
{

}
}

5. We put mms instead of http and at the end "/;" without the quotes

6. We hit F5 and listen our radio!!!

Enjoy!

Edit : it works with http really good but i never tried until now... So no need for mms at the beginning of the URL.
