Problem with MediaPlayerElement looping videos UWP












2















I am developing a wildlife related application and want to keep looping a short video of certain animals.



I am using MediaPlayerElement to play the video. With some research, I've found out that the MediaPlayerElement has a function called IsLoopingEnabled for looping media. But when I try implementing it, a sytax error is shown telling me




'MediaPlayerElement' does not contain a definition for 'IsLoopingEnabled' and no accessible method 'IsLoopingEnabled' accepting a first argument of type 'MediaPlayerElement'could be found (are you missing a using derivative or an assembly reference?)




My XAML code:



<MediaPlayerElement x:Name="mediaPlayer"
Source="ms-appx:///Assets/video.mp4"
Width="Auto"
AutoPlay="True"
Stretch="Fill"
AreTransportControlsEnabled="False" />


In C#



mediaPlayer.IsLoopingEnabled=true;


UWP MediaPlayerElement - how to loop/repeat mp4 and official documentation show that this function exists. Am I doing something wrong?

          You were almost there. MediaPlayerElement has a property called MediaPlayer which has IsLoopingEnabled. So you need to set it like below.



          mediaPlayer.MediaPlayer.IsLoopingEnabled = true;
