MediaElement not showing in custom 3D class
- by user3271180
I'm trying to display a videostream in a Viewport3d. When I add the MediaElement via xaml, the video plays without a problem; even when I add the video as ModelVisual3D in the code-behind, the video works. When I abstract the video into a class, however, the video stops appearing. This happens with both web and local video files. I tried compiling with both x86 and 64 bit. Any way to fix this behaviour? Why is this happening?
I have the following viewport:
<Viewport3D>
<!-- Camera -->
<Viewport3D.Camera>
<PerspectiveCamera Position="0,0,100" LookDirection="0,0,-1" UpDirection="0,1,0" />
</Viewport3D.Camera>
<!-- Light -->
<ModelVisual3D>
<ModelVisual3D.Content>
<AmbientLight Color="White" />
</ModelVisual3D.Content>
</ModelVisual3D>
<!-- this doesn't work -->
<mediaElementTest:VideoControl />
<!-- but this does? -->
<!--<ModelVisual3D>
