it is possibile in Windows phone 8.1 silverlight share a MP4 or JPG or MP3?
from the examples it seems that you can only share text or links.
is there another way?
Thanks
As far as i know we can share images in WP8.1 using DataTransferManager.

You could simply use the Youtube class to play the youtube videos from Codeplex. Have a look into this

If you want to play a normal video from your local files you could use the MediaElement. This sample could be helpful.
Hope it helps!
you can have Reference form Nokia Developer Article given here (Video Playback with MediaElement in Windows Phone).
-This article demonstrates how to play a video using the MediaElement Windows Phone control and also how to play video from remote server in the default media player using MediaPlayerLauncher.
I am new to Windows Phone app development and I would like to know what is the best way to embed YouTube videos in Windows Phone 8 App? I would like to provide a list of videos with thumbnails and user should be able to click and watch the video just like any typical app.
Thanks a lot.
I had tried some third party SDKs while I was doing this for Windows 8 but was not happy with any of the solutions.
Finally I resorted to embedding the video in a Web View control and the output was pretty desirable. I have not tried this on Windows Phone but should work as it did on Windows 8 since the underlying browser is the same. Try it out:-
string html = #"<style> body{margin:0; padding:0;} iframe{width:100%;height:480px;}#media screen and (max-width:300px) { iframe{width:100%;height:180px;}} </style><iframe style=""padding:0px;margin-bottom:-20px;"" src=""http://www.youtube.com/embed/" + videoId + #"?rel=0"" frameborder=""0"" allowfullscreen></iframe>";
videoView.NavigateToString(html);
Let me know if this worked for you
First try creating sample video application in Windows Phone App Studio which uses YouTube API services and display videos in application.
Download the source code and refer, How it uses YouTube API services and gets video. Source code will be in MVVM pattern and its the best way to implement. You may get some basic knowledge on how to develop apps that uses YouTube services.
You can refer the source code which uses YouTube API services, which I generated for more information.
I have MP3s and other file formats that I want to provide through my website to iPhone and iPad users. VLC's iOS app seems to fit the bill, but they say
Additionally, third party websites and apps
may include links to open streams directly in VLC for iOS.
Here is the official documentation provided
How can I do that? I can't seem to find any documentation about it. I'm considering making a custom app just to accomplish it, but that seems silly.
Starting from VLC 2.0.2 you can use a link of type:
vlc://path/to/file to have the device open VLC if it is installed.
Also check the VideoLAN forums here
Seen many posts on this around the web but no nearer finding out if it's possible to do...
Have seen http://www.webqr.com/ recommended but I tried uploading the .zip from github (https://github.com/LazarSoft/jsqrcode) for this to phonegap and the compiled app fails on android with "Sorry, native web camera streaming (getusermedia) is not supported by this browser"
Well, I'm not trying to use the webcam really, I want to access the camera on the phone/ipad if possible.
Is it actually possible to do this from HTML5 or does it require a proper native app? (so xcode for the ipad app I have in mind)
I've also seen some plugins for "phonegap" (as opposed to phonegap build) which would also require a mac/xcode so that's not the angle I want to approach it from as I'm trying to do this all from windows if possible.
This may help. it a js plugin. search the phonegap plugin page for 'scanners'

I am looking at building an app that can take a video from a person's media library on their mobile phone and upload it to my servers. As far as I can tell, I'd have to build an application for each type of mobile device I want to include. But if new HTML5 protocols let me upload video files through the browser (and can handle the file size), this would be a preferred method.
Web apps don't have access to the media library on a phone. Use phonegap to get access to the users photos - http://docs.phonegap.com/phonegap_media_capture_capture.md.html
Considering you are using iOS and running the WebApp in iOS' MobileSafari, you have NO access to any system related components, libraries or anything (so no Photos, Videos etc).
And Safari itself does not support file upload. You can add the tag but it will always remain as if had disabled="disabled" attribute.
The only way to access these components is by using a Native code or, like Joel said, PhoneGap since it gives the html pages, access to Native API's through it's JS Framework.
For Android, i have no idea but probably not.
