Hi everyone!
I wanna make a video player using a control called MediaElement.It worked well at the begining ,but the video was blocked when it works for a long time.Even worse,the playing area turned black sometimes, and it can't continue the playing and never raise a MediaEnded or MediaFailed event too. I'm sure there is no memory problem happend.

Any sujustions? Thank you very much!

The MediaElement control uses a TON of memory. We use a windows media player control wrapped in a dll instead, because the Media Player control just was not reliable. Having said that, our videos are 1024x768. If your videos are smaller, it should be fine. The other question to ask is, if your video card drivers are up to date.
