Windows Phone (WP) Question:

Supported Codecs and container formats are listed in MSDN documentation: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff462087(VS.92).aspx Note: The Device Emulator does not have hardware decoders so the codec support on the device emulator is much less than what is listed. For Emulator you only have WMA, WMV, and VC1 software decoders.
