MediaElement WinRT HUD information - windows-runtime

The winRT MediaElement integrates very nicely with the windows8 volume controls play and pause buttons.
I will like to display artist information also, I have the info how to I set it on the MediaElement?
Thank you,

MediaElement is used to play audio or video. If you want to display anything else - you need to use some other controls overlaid on top of the MediaElement.

You can set the artist name, track name & album artwork using the MediaControl class:

How can I use 2 MediaElements at the same time?

I'm creating a mini game. It has music background and gun sound. But I can not play them at the same time.
How can I do it ???
You can't - as MSDN says:
When a MediaElement control plays audio or video content, any background sounds or media already playing are halted. The app launches the playback experience when the user taps the control. Only one MediaElement control can operate at a time.
Instead you can try to use SoundEffect from XNA to play your gun sound.

Background Audio Agent and Media Player in Windows phone 8

I stuck in a big problem I am playing audio in background using BackgroundAudioPlayer working fine while I am playing another audio file using MediaElement on foreground the background sound is stopped.I want to play both sound simultaneously background and foreground please let me how it will be done.
MediaElement and BackgroundAudioPlayer are exclusive - you can only use one of these at a time.
You are able to play additional sounds using the XNA SoundEffect APIs however. For example of these APIs see this blog entry.

How can I remove youtube logo from the youtube player for use in other application?

I want to use the Charmless youtube player in my application and I want to remove youtube logo from the Player. How can i achieve this thing? My application is developed using AS3.
Simply add ?modestbranding=1 to the end of your URL.
See more here.
modestbranding (supported players: AS3, HTML5)
This parameter lets you use a YouTube player that does not show a YouTube logo.
Set the parameter value to 1 to prevent the YouTube logo from displaying in the control bar.
Note that a small YouTube text label will still display in the upper-right corner of a paused
video when the user's mouse pointer hovers over the player.
try this API player code.

Chromeless player, the modestbranding has no effect unless "showinfo=1" is must for API player.
I tried to remove youtube logo by many ways. But I didn't get success to remove it from the youtube player.
Finally I check the youtube player functionality and behavior. When video is attached to the player then it will be displayed in center. if player container height is bigger then video height so both (top and bottom) side Black strip will be appeared. Just we have to hide the Black Strip from the user display area using masking concept. (In Flash we can apply the mask to container and same thing will be done using the DOM model in Javascript.)
In directly it will be removed as per end user perspective not actually. so Indirect way youtube logo is removed from the player.
