I am finding that Silverlight is still a bit buggy. It seems that it not living up to it's cross browser pledge.

I for one hate sites that try and use an RIA such as flash for the whole page. In most cases the user experience is just bad. What I like to do is mix it up and use Silverlight to do only what can't be done any other way.

So, I have a media player set up so a user will click a link that calls a JavaScript function such as Play(123) where 123 is the ID of a song.

My silverlight control calls a web service that gets the URL of a the media file and a bunch of meta data. All works fine on IE and Safari but I get a Media Error on Firefox.

I am not sure what I am doing wrong but I should get a consistent behavior and I am not.
