One of Silverlight's strengths has always been its rich-media capabilities (indeed, version 1.0 wasn't good for much else). Silverlight 3.0 now contains support for a number of new formats and smooth streaming when used in conjunction with IIS Media Services (www.iis.net/media).

15.15.1. New Formats

Silverlight 3.0 supports the following additional formats:

  • HD (720p+)

  • MPEG-4–based H.264/AAC Audio (known as HD TV)

  • HD playback to full-screen by utilizing GPU

15.15.2. Silverlight DRM

Silverlight 3.0 contains built-in DRM support using PlayReady with AES encryption.

NOTE

To utilize PlayReady-protected content, you will need access to a PlayReady-licensed server.
