SharePoint 2010: Media Web Part

Here is another cool new web part added to SharePoint 2010 – The Audio & Video Web Part [ a.k.a Media Web Part ]

The Media Web Part is a Silverlight Control. Once you edit the page, its available from the Insert tab in the SharePoint Ribbon.

This will add the Media Web Part to the page:

Clicking on the web part, the Web Part Options tab is revealed in the Ribbon:

You can select your source from the Change Media button menu.

From SharePoint opens up the Asset Picker dialog through which you can select a video from the current site/subsites:

Here is the video playing in the web part:

You can also change the image of the web part from the Change Image button in the Ribbon.

Currently, only two styles are available – Dark and Light

ensure you have the following featurs turned on: from site collection features you need to activate the SharePoint Server Publishing Infrastructure and from site features you need to activate the SharePoint Server Publishing feature. You also need to ensure you have a wmv file on the site. hope this helps

Thakns for the excellent post. I do have a question: if I have a media file already stored in a file system in a server, and I want to add this media to the Media Web Part using 'Change Media' --> 'From Address' (then use a URL to point to the media file). In SharePoint database, will it only stores the link to the media, or will it actually uploads and stores the media file in SharePoint database?

If it open up with the error, Go to IIS and see if there is an other site which is using Share Point. If yes, then either you can change port of your site or you can also change Share Point default port.
